    How to: the console

    Creator cube is only available in Creative Mode or the Editor. It is not available in Adventure mode.

    Creator Cube in Exploration mode

    While it is down to RNG which species of fish shoals will spawn in, it doesn't usually take that long if you are searching the right places. As long as you are swimming around the special underwater biomes marked as coloured polygon areas on the map then there will be multiple fish shoals spawning in. You can almost guarantee a shoal of each regions special rare fish like sea slug, nautilus etc when you dive down to the relict encounters as well, keep an eye on the ship compass and look for the buoy icon to appear and find the floating debris which marks an underwater encounter. There is no point swimming out in the regular open ocean though as no fish shoals will spawn there either. There is also the option to use a fishing rod, it isn't as fast in my opinion though and does require some specific conditions to be met to get certain fish types. You get a boost to your chances for the rare fish if you fish with a rod over the deepest waters and between the hours of 9pm-5am (if you type /dui into the chat bar you can see the ingame clock). Another option is to place the trapper vendor at your base and you can buy certain rare fish from them every day. If you haven't unlocked it yet then you can simply visit a public server which has all of the vendors such as CAG Port, Trader Tango, and Jungular Isles in the Tropical region. Or you could join the Ylands Discord and post in the trading channel to see if anyone is down to trade some with you.
  3. Make sure to use the in-game feedback button in the pause screen or the game settings menu to report this and a developer will be able to manually add it to your map when they get the chance to

    Dev Diary #323 6 Player's creations in Ylands

    There is that one igloo yurt npc encounter that popped up briefly and then vanished again shortly after, maybe it will happen one day! XD

    How do I make a weapon give off light?

    Unfortunately I can't answer that but I recommend that you join the official Ylands Discord server, there is a specific Editor channel where there are lots of knowledgeable people. Your questions are more likely to be answered faster too.

    Secondary creative mode option.

    You can already capture your creations from creative mode with the blueprint camera and then build them in adventure mode for free (other than needing the required materials to craft it of course), you just have to make sure to use only blocks and items that are allowed. The game will tell you when you use the blueprint camera if any of the items in your creation are not allowed when you go to save it. If you aren't sure which blocks and items aren't allowed then I recommend that you try out the Editor, it has a filter in the entity panel that will only show those that are allowed to be used in adventure mode blueprints. Eventually you learn which blocks are and aren't allowed in adventure but it takes time. The editor also provides a lot more features for building and you can also create blueprints directly from it as well so it is definitely worth testing out! I think you are onto a good idea there though, maybe the devs could add a similar filter to the creator cube so that it only shows adventure mode allowed blocks and items if you enable it.

    I lost my inventory

    First and most important thing to do is to send an in-game report to the devs using the feedback button in the pause menu, this also sends them your logs so that they can investigate what has happened. Nine times out of ten, these sort of connection issues can be resolved by the devs rolling back your progress to the nearest saved point before the error occurred.

    How to Unlock the Tower Metal Spheres?

    I already answered over in the Discord but I'll add it here in case it helps someone else here as well. This is the third part of a four part encounter. The encounters must be completed in a specific order as they give you the key to open the next one. The first is always in a cave on the same island as this tower.

    RESOLVED adventure mode says data corrupted

    Please send a bug report to the Devs using the in-game message system or the feedback button in the pause menu. The Devs are working on a patch which will hopefully be released soon

    I LOST MY UNICORN

    Please submit a bug report using the in-game message system or clock the feedback button in the pause menu when you are in the map. This is so the Devs can investigate what has happened and get back to you

    Start Fresh Icon on Mystery Ylands

    Yes, exactly right although the mystery ylands do cost exploration points each time you want to reset them. The starting yland is free to reset as many times as you wish. It also gets updated often so it's worth doing again to get new rewards from the handbook too. You can also delete normal local map saves as well, you only have limited map slots but you can just delete the maps that you have raided to make room for newly generated ones too.

    Start Fresh Icon on Mystery Ylands

    It will reset only the specific Yland/map that you click it on so it is safe to do. If you want to reset and delete all maps then there is an option in the settings to reset adventure map progress, there is also an option to reset adventure character progress which deletes your characters inventory, learnt recipes, handbook progress, bonded animals, claimed ships etc. Only do this if you want to start completely from scratch

    error message on data loading screen

    First, make sure to send a bug report to the Devs using the in-game message system so that they can investigate your logs. It might take some time for them to resolve the issue so it might take a while for them to get back to you.

    Dev Diary #307 A New Resident in Taiga

    Yup, read this post for details, unfortunately we have been experiencing issues where it goes down over the weekends so haven't been able to play it for a few days. Won't be long until the actual update happens I imagine.

    Nope, the sneaky buggers kept it from us and we only found out when they launched the 2.2 Experimental branch and we found them!

  17. DEUTSCH: Leider ist dies ein bekanntes Problem, bei dem es von jedem dieser Artikel zwei Versionen mit unterschiedlichen Rezepten gibt. In den fraglichen Bauplänen muss die Version des Betts und Korbs verwendet worden sein, für die Sie derzeit kein Rezept haben (der eine verwendet Stöcke, der andere Bambusstöcke). In der Zwischenzeit können Sie entweder warten, bis Sie diese Rezepte selbst gefunden haben, oder jemanden einladen, der sie bereits hat, zu kommen und den Entwurf für Sie fertigzustellen. Ein guter Ort dafür ist der offizielle Ylands Discord, wo es viele aktive und hilfsbereite Spieler gibt. Eine Alternative besteht darin, einfach alle restlichen erforderlichen Materialien für das Schiff hinzuzufügen und dann unten auf die Schaltfläche „Bau fertigstellen“ zu klicken. Dadurch wird alles, was Sie hinzugefügt haben, bis auf das fehlende Bett und den fehlenden Korb, fertiggestellt und Sie können sie dann ablegen Manuell selbst anhand der Rezepte, die Sie haben. Ich glaube, dass im nächsten Update später in diesem Monat die Versionen, die Bambusstäbe verwenden, aus dem Spiel entfernt werden, aber ich bin mir nicht sicher, wie sich das auf Blaupausen auswirken wird, die bereits in der Welt platziert wurden. ~~~ ENGLISH: Unfortunately this is a known issue where there are two versions of each of these items with different recipes.

    Rog Ally no keyboard

    First and most important thing to do is to send a bug report to the Devs via the in-game message system (envelope icon>Dev tab). The Devs will be able to investigate what has happened. Unfortunately I don't think this platform is officially supported by the game so naturally there could be problems arising with not everything functioning correctly. I'm not sure if you were using the Steam/Microsoft Store version of the game on it or if it was the mobile Android/iOS version which has the smaller maps only. If you left the ship spawned in and unclaimed on a singleplayer map then the only way it could have disappeared is if you manually deleted the map it was on or used the reset adventure and character progress in the settings which would also wipe all of your inventory, claimed ships, unlocked recipes etc.
  20. Unfortunately there isn't an option to buy a custom amount of Coyns in the shop but that could be a good suggestion for the Devs to add in the future perhaps? The other ways to earn Coyns is by completing the ingame achievements which give about 10 each. Another option is selling your own creations in the blueprint shop. You receive 70% of the sale value when someone buys your BP so you could create something small and sell it once for 100 Coyns and you'd receive 70 Coyns whichw oypd be enough. @YoHasLEGO is also offering to gift people the DLC for the holiday season while it's on sale. Feel free to join the official Ylands Discord server too, that's where everyone hangs out now. https://discord.com/invite/ylands

    Dev Diary #301 Creating Mythical Animals

    The emerald scaleneck certainly has a resemblance to Frances from the Dinosaurs show, it makes so much sense now 🤣 Just need red eyes on the burrowdrill and it would be the rabbit of Caerbannog. The stormfeathered banty is so cute, can't wait to see it in-game! 🐤 If only the golems could be tamed/passive, I'd love to have them roam my forest gardens.

    Suggestion: Underwater Habitation

    Yes, underground. But I mean having cool glass tunnels through the water!

    Suggestion: Underwater Habitation

    This would be epic! It would enable underwater tunnels between ylands for easy travel via car.
