Re: [3.63] Cord quality exploit
I did further tests with leather rope and birchbark rope. All joined tying equipment get their quality modified to the 2nd item selected as reported Can’t test withes, as they’re coded as nonjoinable. But pretty sure they’d follow the pattern. October 27, 2020, 04:30:27 AM |

Re: IF you could see any mod created, what would it be?
For me the mod (other than mead) that I've always wanted to make is a "Living Skill" mod. Along the lines of what Simon did with "Shaman". So the Mod addition I have wanted for the longest time is the ability to 'detect' NPCs in recipes. This would open the mod world to interacting with NPC world. Needing to find a Shaman to make x. Working with a craftsman to gain the ability to craft x. Learning from an old woman a great recipe for x. Gain special items by meeting with Vagabonds, woodsmen or Adventurers. It would allow you to sheer a sheep, because you have a sheep. NPC detection in recipes pls. October 27, 2020, 06:46:48 PM |

Re: IF you could see any mod created, what would it be?
I believe some kind of mod installer would be really appreciated. A program that backups original files, merges what should be merged and provides enabling/disabling mods in an easy way. If you are on Windows I think urwml still works. It's the only 'external' I've seen/used to manage multiple mods while segregating their files and allowing easy swapping.

Re: Punitive island winter challenge
It sure can be. A few pointers to any newcomers who wish to try: - When still naked - obsess over fire. - Gather firewood rather than cut it - it is far quicker. Always have enough ready for at least one night, preferably several. - Branches and other small wood burn too quickly. Light branch fires to cut slender trunks. Light slender trunks to cut groups of young trees. - Always be on a lookout for groups of young trees. Light a slender trunk fire near them to be able to cut three or at least two young trees with one fire. - Do not waste big trunks for fires that burn longer than you need them to. The winter will be much colder later. You also need them for traps when you get rope. - Learn to use torches. - Do not waste time on wooden stakes/fences and javelins. Throw rocks unless your club skill is much worse than spear. - From the start, you are in a real hurry to have plenty of food, firewood and fur clothes before the mid winter strikes. - EDIT: Try to a make wooden shovel and dig the pits you need before the ground is too frozen. - Reindeer, elk and - Mind the spirits. You can sacrifice mushrooms and grasses. Use lingonberries for bait. Low energy meat is also better as bait than one sorry meal. - Stay the F*** out of the ice! If you must brave to a carcass, drop everything but a wielded knife and crawl. You can test the ice by pushing stuff on it. - Swimming guide: https://www.unrealworld.fi/wiki/index.php?title=Swimming_(Skill) The Island will await patiently. October 27, 2020, 10:32:19 PM |

Re: Punitive island winter challenge
Also, when collecting a carcass off the ice, pull it to you, crawl back, pull, crawl back... If it's light enough to be carried, drop it and crawl back anyway (I don't think I've been in that situation, though). You may well have to heat up by a fire one or more times, as that's very slow work. October 27, 2020, 11:02:09 PM |

Seasonal sales and Kekri customs
Harvest festival sales are on at Steam and Itch.io -- and in the Far North we do celbrate Kekri. So let the new adventurers be respected with the discount, and the ancestral spirits with our special Kekri costumes and customs... During this festivity period you can grab the game for decent discount on Steam, or from Itch.io. It's Kekri, not halloween, in the Far North. Kekri is an ancient Finnish harvest festival celebrated in the fall when the annual agricultural activities were all accomplished and the harvest collected. Kekri meant the end of the crop year, which was a big turning point. It was the time when the souls and spirits of the dead wandered around and visited the living. The ancestors were respected and welcomed. Sauna was heated up for them, and meal prepared too. The living celebrated accordingly, and so do we. Kekri Goat Kekri time included tradition of Kekripukki (Kekri goat) figure. People would dress up as horned creatures, wearing furs or coats upside down, and went around in their disguises and were offered food and drink. So, what does a decent developer of tradition rich game do to follow the tradition? Yes. He dresses up as Kekripukki.  We wish you happy and haunting Kekri time, or Halloween - if that suits you better. Celebrate and participate!  October 30, 2020, 11:53:03 AM |

Character and clothing&armor sizes
At the moment if someone wants to play (metal) armor wearing warrior, they either choose Kaumolais or Sartolais character. They have largest size and as weight directly affects carry weight and encumbrance penalty; there’s no reason to choose any other culture. Now the suggestion! Have small characters, say under 65kg (~143lbs) average/usual size above that and below ~90kg (198lbs) and large characters, above 95kg/198lbs All weights debatable. Then add ‘small’ and ‘large’ sized armor and clothing items. Keep the current items as average/usual size. Decrease small clothing and armor weight by (maybe 10-15%) and increase large variants weight by 10-15% Values debatable. No more getting correctly fitting armor for the 100kg/220lbs Kaumolainen from that 103lbs/47kg Njerpez. Also, with metalworking/smithing in dev.plans, enable re-sizing and repairing existing armor.

Re: Island challenge stories
Long swims go easily after all food is left behind. Water is comfortable at last. It must be past midsommer already. On a bigger island, a fellow lost soul. Quite a character. Good swimmer too, has two axes but refuses to even talk about lending axe for making a raft or even a paddle. Finally he agreed to split some boards. Soon a raft and a paddle are made and Ukko heads back to camp to fetch all the accumulated furs and skins. An islander village looms in the horizon. This Rikori is a real oddball. Even when Ukko is paddling, Rikori swims behind. With all that steel he's carrying? "He must be a spirit." Ukko decides. While in the quiet Islander village, Ukko tells his story. Villagers listen almost unbelievingly. Rikori is grateful for finding a village and stays there. He gives Ukko lesson in hideworking for his companionship. After trading for a broad knife, Ukko looks for Rikori to ask him once more for one of his handaxes. Ukko doesn't find him. "I've been blessed with a savior." X#X#X#X#X#X#X#X This was pure luck. But I'm relieved, it would've been pretty tedious to swim all the way to mainland. Highest fatigue was 36 after 10 wilderness tile swim. Some backtracking. No coldness problems after stepping into water was "comfortably warm". Everything but a few pieces of clothing was left behind. It was very handy to have leather shoes. Leather for rope which became stone axe for making a paddle and a raft. November 01, 2020, 05:08:11 PM |

Change criteria for waking up due to cold to only happen when worse
I had a character that was freezing to death, desperately trying and failing to light a fire while dead tired. Eventually the fire got going (despite repeated interrupts due to confusion), and I could finally let my character rest. However, each time the cold condition IMPROVED to a less serious cold condition the character woke up due to the cold with the fire still burning. This should only happen when conditions worsen, not when they're improving, i.e. the the game should take the previous state into consideration when determining whether the character wakes up or not.
