Mesh333 32 Posted May 11, 2017 Hi Ylanders! As I love experimenting in Ylands, I thought it might be fun to start a 'What happens if...' thread, what can you think of trying? Here's one to start us off... What happens if... ...you plant 1000 Oak tree seeds? ... ... ... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aleš Ulm 1725 Posted May 12, 2017 Cool! And at the same time, you actually found a bug because the trees should grow up in several visual variants, not in one as seen in the picture - so thanks for that as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aethelis 38 Posted May 12, 2017 crazy stuff! now that'll make a nice treehouse now i have to come up with something weird... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mesh333 32 Posted May 12, 2017 ...or wonderful, or weird and wonderful. Looking forward to seeing it Aethelis! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeania 6 Posted May 12, 2017 lol I'm following the thread; putting some pressure on lets see some funky creations! ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aethelis 38 Posted May 14, 2017 okay.. i had a plan and a vision, and opened my explore savegame.. first obstacle was a in game warning along the lines of.. "cannot place shiphulls anywhere except water".. that is sad and put an early stop to my venture. then i opened a cheater, erm, creator map and found those wreck-hulls which could be placed between some rocky hills. so far so good. then i proceeded to place some platforms to start with the ropebridges.... computer said "nooo" .. tried some workaroundstuff but computer still said the same.. Aethelis said gtfo and deleted the map. so unless there is a way to do fancy stuff i'm not aware of, i dont see a way to make things that arent rectangular brickbuildings, which makes me sad. really would like to experiment but atm the "no building here" restrictions scare me off.. and placing it with V isnt really usefull for stuff like the floor (or wall/roof/anything) of your base imo. so.. sorry, no shiphull-ewok-ropebridge-housing today.

Aethelis 38 Posted May 15, 2017 imagine, you are to lazy to build a new chest for a couple of sticks... and instead start building a fence with them... and then find out, that it does not block movement.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gracekain 86 Posted May 16, 2017 OMG Love it! How did you plant them so perfectly? I guess in the world editor, I haven't had a chance to play with it much. Nice post! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aethelis 38 Posted May 16, 2017 its in exploration. i just pressed V for the placingmode and rotated them up and placed them. but they dont block movement, at least for me. cant say if it does for predators, they somehow got extinct on this island *cough*, no clue why.. and the planteaters seem to not come up the hill. maybe too cold up here for wabbits and piggsies.

Hi Aethelis, your 'custom' stick fence is a great idea! The freedom of placing items (using the 'V' button) in Ylands is one the most 'impressive' abilities of the game for me, you can really let your imagination roam and try all sorts of things! This of course is bound to come with some unexpected 'side effects', as you can't predict exactly how things are going to 'react/interact' with the game environment, which is all part of the fun for me!

Nice post! Hi Gracekain, well spotted, perfect 'planting' eh?! Well actually it's not!!! It is perfect 'placing'! I created a new Yland using the editor, limited the terrain height so it would be flat, cleared all the objects and 'placed' my oak tree seeds using the snap to grid tool! Ho ho! I then used my custom Scenario (Template) to start a new Explore game, sat back and watched my trees grow!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mesh333 32 Posted May 18, 2017 Hi Ylanders! Here's another one! What happens if... ...Six rabbits are left alone for 10 days? ... ... ... ...out of control AI animals! Looking forward to the animal AI update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
