    Omg kimbuck I bet that was me! I love making hidden underground bases haha I knew I was going to be found after I crafted the Chemistry station because of the noise ? Wish I could have joined in and I would have shared my resources and workstations with you. Maybe later? Come join the server discord channel with us, there’s only a few of us on there so far
  3. The Ylands servers have been down today for some reason, including their website until just now. We haven’t had an explanation yet.

    I'm hungry!

    Bananas aren’t the best food for staving hunger, try turning then into roasted fruit and they will last longer. I know it’s not super realistic when it comes to the lower tier foods but if you experiment with other foods you will find that bread and cooked meats are a lot better at filling you up which is more realistic. It has been suggested that the devs could add a feature where you need to eat a variety of food to feel full, so eating just bananas won’t fill you up

    Server frustrations

    Exactly! It confused me the first few times but now I'm also miss clicking because they are so close together.

    Server frustrations

    I have a small, silly pet peeve I have with the in-game Menu. A couple of times I have accidentally clicked on Return to Main Menu instead of Close and then logged myself out of the server which can be really dangerous. I do realise I can just use the Escape key but I haven't got in the habit of using it all of the time yet.

    Release month of .7 has arrived

    Plenty of hype from me. I just hope I have time to update the wiki with all of the new content when it comes out

    Random Wooden Piece?

    It looks like ordinary Wooden Pieces? How strange!

    Magic Dust: Multiple Resources

    I have encountered a random structure that generates under water with multiple magic bushes in it before! There are also a few other structures on land too but it really is luck if you get them.

    RESOLVED Server Load/Login Freeze times Terrible

    Yup, I thought I had done something wrong when Inencountered the blank blue sky for the first time. I didn’t realise that new players joining was what caused the other players to freeze! Freaks me out when it happens, and now I will feel bad when I log in the future!

    More Tamable Animals

    I think they are planning something along these lines further down the track already *fingers crossed* I know they are looking at bringing in pets at least

    Crafting guide?

    Ok maybe start a new thread in the bugs section and include screenshots and your output files too. Hopefully @Ane can help you out here.

    Crafting guide?

    Ok yeah that is strange, once you’ve learnt the recipe it should stay available in the crafting menu. So say you’ve picked up a piece of Flint then the recipes for stone knife and flint lighter should appear and stay there. You don’t accidentally have a different sub-tab selected or have anything written in the search box?

    Crafting guide?

    That analogy is not entirely accurate. Once you have discovered the recipe it always shows in your crafting tab but it is not craftable until you physically have the materials in your possession again. You still ‘remember’ how to make the item. Before discovering the recipe, the recipe simply doesn’t show up because you haven’t discovered the items it requires yet. Otherwise that would be like knowing how to make something without knowing what it is actually made out of, which in my opinion makes even less sense. I do agree though that it can be hard to know what you actually need to be making in the first place. Without knowing you need to make Yarn and a Sewing Kit I don’t think it is very obvious how to go about making Cloth or Clothing without having real world knowledge on how they are made. There are some hints as long as you have a rough idea or have happened to collect a few of the items to start with like you would know how to make Yarn if you had collected Cotton already which would also tell you to make a Spinning Wheel. Once you make the Yarn then you would know how to make a Sewing Kit and Cloth which would tell you to make a Weaving Loom etc etc. it is a progression tree after all, if you don’t collect lots of different resources and make lots of different items as they come available then you are never going to learn more recipes or anything.

    Decoration Packs - Anyone interested?

    Maybe we can suggest to the devs to add a separate category/tab on the workshop for smaller, decorative items such as these?

    Sneak Peek #45

    I was thinking the same thing with the coffins, use them to transport and bury bodies in a more civil manner

    Propeller Pack Looks

    I also find it to be way too noisy when in first person mode

    Steam Key

    That's ok, just send Ane a private message and include your email address that you would have used to buy the game and she should be able to look into it.

    Steam Key

    @Ane should be able to help here, not much else you can do I don't think sorry. Hopefully Ane will come to your rescue soon!

    Propeller pack can be a real life saver.

    I never go caving without my propeller pack now, way too scary

    Whaling in the deep sea

    I’m not saying palm oil is the only culprit, it was just the example being used in the conversation. We have a serious problem in my country with dairy intensification and the pollution it pumps into our waterways. Like I said, monoculture is not the way to go, humans are ruining this planet using these outdated techniques. And as I said in my first comment on this post, I DO feel bad about killing wolves and pumas and so do a lot of other players. I also certainly do not agree with how humans IRL are treating animals and causing so many extinctions, regardless if it’s a mammal, lizard, bird, amphibian, insect, spider, marsupial etc etc. we should be protecting them if anything. This is a game and it is for the individual player to decide how they want to play. Game developers will always have a hard time catering for every kind of player because we are all different and have differing opinions. My main point was that I thought it unlikely that they would be able to implement such a feature like which the OP was suggesting as it wouldn’t agree with the ratings system as they are trying to keep the game family friendly. And I was never implying that the game devs shouldn’t keep bringing new content to the game, I was merely bringing it to peoples attention that the devs are limited to what they can realistically do with the game with those constraints.

    Whaling in the deep sea

    Palm oil is only really bad because of the deforestation humans are causing to create massive plantations of palm trees and in effect are destroying animals habitats. So far in Ylands there isn’t such a feature like this, it is totally up to the player whether they want to strip everything off of their land and replant a monoculture of palms with little to no consequence. Maybe an idea for a future update?
