    However I found out that the actual size is 30x30 units, and one block is 0.375.

    I thought it was wrong when I kept seeing this 30x30 size being posted around the place. From my measurements, the actual size is 82x82x82 blocks (as in the smallest block size we have currently). I've also found that the PB generator is not truly in the centre of the entire protected area and that there is more protected area above the generator than below it (55 blocks above and 27 blocks below). Strangely enough it is also not quite horizontally centralised either, there is 42 blocks going left of the PB and 39 going right (not including the block it is placed on).

    Yup, i get that multiple times in a session. Many other people are also experiences the same problem across different servers.

    This is what the devs have to say about it:

    Also, we have concluded our analysis of "Host unreachable", one of the high-profile critical issues. Even though there can be many causes behind this that we don't have control over, we indeed found a situation where players can get this message and be unable to connect to an MP game. Good news is that it is something that is fixable, but it may take some time. What is going to happen now is this: in 0.7, if this situation happens, you will see a specific error message. If you see it, you'll know that we're to blame and that it's something that you would be getting no matter what port you have opened etc. It's quite obvious, though, that you're more interested in getting a fix than just an indication. We have already started working on it and chances are that in 0.7 you'll find yourself in this situation less often. The complete fix will be released as soon as possible and we'll keep you posted on the progress. This is a very high priority for us.

    I've found some cave systems have portions that are barely connected to each other (for example, a very narrow nearly vertical shaft), so it can be easy to miss those portions.

    I was going to say the same thing, and I’ve only found them because of the 1st person camera no clip trick through the walls. For me, most of the mutated animals and crystals are far, far down the cave system and not in the top half at least

    Was this single player or online multiplayer on a server? Resources get snatched up quick in multiplayer. I have noticed though in single player that some Ylands have very few crystals and mutated animals while other Ylands have heaps and heaps of both. Luck of the draw perhaps?

    Can  others  pass through  the  PB   wall into your  base? --- and can they remove  stuff  from  containers  inside the  barrier?:|

    Yes you can freely pass through and interact with everything. It only stops them from killing you while you are logged off and stops them placing blocks other than dirt and stops them from destroying items. They can still loot your chests if they aren’t locked. They are wanting to improve the features in another update.

    I hope I wasn’t one of those casualties while offline ?

    It pops up as a bubble above your character so other players can only see it if they are looking at you, I’m guessing those players are currently offline. I saw quite a few when playing the server and planted a bunch of plants around them ?

    While  looking  around i heard strange  noises coming  from the ground..   a  search discovered a cleverly   disguised  opening to  an  underground  digging with a someone  offline  sitting there .....  hiding. The  noise i  could hear was coming from his  chemistry workstation:D

    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

    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

    It should read "return to game" or "exit to main menu".. not "return to the main menu".

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

    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.

    • Have a magical plant like the one you already have on land spawn in water too

     

    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.
