You need the fish to have same freshness(caught in same day) for them to stack so you can dry/smoke/salt at most 19 at once.

Fishing is the best way for newbie to get food, you should find a fishing rod and go fishing in rapids or the sea. Lakes and rivers are having less ideal yield.

Don't worry about preserving fishes for now, spend time to make traps to get a steady food source then think about preserve your food.

Gameplay questions / Re: Wolves! Help!

« on: June 04, 2018, 08:51:11 PM »

a) How do I keep a companion from suiciding with wolves around?
No.
b) Is there any way to keep a reindeer safe with wolves on the map?
Kill the wolves fast enough
c) Does fire scare wolves? Can they be scared away at all? Before wounding most or all of them that is...
No. Generally Wolves won't attack well equipped unwounded character but the present of livestock = effective wolf magnets
d) Can dogs attack (or at least defend themselves) when they are on the leash? They didn't seem to do anything when I told them to attack without unleashing them.
Yes but the idea of letting them fight with the leash is bad. They cannot leave you and will get exhausted fast if you leave them in aggressive state.

Just don't mess with the wolves, smaller packs (~4) are as dangerous as robbers and traders and larger packs (~8) are more deadly than the equal amount of robbers. The strength of the wolves is not just in numbers but also the tactics. They are the master of hit-and-run combat and there are no other npc/predators using this tactics as well as the wolves can.

The best way to deal with the wolves is to zoomout asap.

Gameplay questions / Re: Any way to find lost items?

« on: May 26, 2018, 06:50:25 PM »

If you for whatever reason unable to use msglog method (e.g. deleted msglog.txt), cannot find the items in the spruce maze or for whatever reason trying to dig out a specific item, you can use this complicated method (which require some knowledge of course) to get the exact location of a item in local map:

Spoiler: show

1. open xxx.OBJ
2. find the item
3. each slot is 172 bytes and count the number
4. add 50000 to that number
5. open ZOOMMAPS.DAT
6. search for that number
7. the structure of this file is
first 8 bytes global location <<< the same thing in msglog
next 4096 for buildings
next 4096 discovered
next 4096 terrain
next 4096 steepness
next 72000 things <<< you are here somewhere
each thing(include items, npc, tracks, etc.) slot contain 36 bytes and the reference number should be the 12th
the exact position in the map are save in first 4 bytes
row column

happy digging

I don't think this is the case, I'm very sure it gone from 2 fine rinsed mallard-skins to 1 fine mallard leather and 1 harsh rinsed mallard-skin and both killed at that day which shouldn't rot.

Tribe names are mostly made up "fantasy" names - except for Koivulaiset which you got already. These were made up by Erkka, and I think he came up with words that "feel and taste" the same as original culture/region they resemble.

But it's really impossible (at least for me) to tell even what the authentic, real and existing names of finnish cultural areas mean, or when they come from. There might be some etymological studies available but they are most often only sophisticated guesses smile.gif

For example, I was born and I do live in Savo region. I'm Savolainen.
Someone has suggested that possible origin of word Savo might be:
Savi - clay
Savu - smoke
or even
Saivo - which is saami word for certain kind of lake
Suvanto - which means something like "quiet waters"

But nobody knows for sure. It's tricky.
