If I remember correctly, lighting up any dark ocean floors within spawn range will help your squid spawn rate. Can't seem to find info to verify it though, can anyone confirm or deny off the top of their head?

One step at a time! FlowerChild, do NOT put this decision up to us and don't worry about our preferences in this regard, you have to make up a strong forward oriented plan for the game first.You ought simply to make the game exactly how you wish it to be and if that game happens to be marginally co...

Someone before briefly mentioned that the word 'retard' is used in technical context. In the medical field, it may have a questionable history, but in biology and microbiology specifically, its a very common term, for example "A high density of enzyme X would severely retard the transcription o...

OHMIGAWD THANK YOU

I've been trying to get the motivation together to design an auto kiln that doesn't rely on a timer for a long time, but the timer-based ones always worked well enough so that it wasn't an issue

I feel like this game could be improved a lot of the dev added something like what flower talked about, something that would increase in importance and complexity as the population grew. Another way might be to add requirements that kick in at certain population limits. For example, a small village ...

Sweet! I really didn't want to have to spend time getting out of the early game since I've already spent the majority of the quarter getting out of it. It'll be nice to get right to the building and automation aspect :)

Thinking about taking a look at this server now that my main midterms week is going to be over and I figured out how to update with the new launcher. Would anyone be interested in co-op play, or would the people running spawn down be interested in having another person to help out? I personally like...

OK, so my situation is this: I think I finally found a way to get my mac updated to v4.98PHILLIP, haven't tried it yet on account of multiple midterms this week, but this means I'd be able to get on the server finally! The other thing is that I just got to the nether in a single player world after m...

I understand if you don't want to, but would you be willing to share what you've changed with the mod? I'm just interesting in how an Avatar mod would be implemented, not asking for a download or anything :)

Now that this is out, can anyone personally vouch for the game? It looks really cool, but I'm taking 20 units of upper division science right now, so I'm not sure I want to get it unless it's gonna blow my mind

Though I can't help you with fruityloops and production, I can help you with music. I'd recommend learning music theory and piano, in conjunction with learning to use the electronic tools. You need a good knowledge of theory to understand what's going on in the music (which is important to know wha...

Yeah I did that and landed in someones base, so I guess I'll give it another try, thanks.

Is there an area that new players can build up where the world hasn't been stripped of resources, and isn't taken up by bases already? Normally I'd just explore till I found one, but that would take a few hours and this quarter is kinda busy :( Also thought there might be a specific area/portal for ...

version of BTW is the latest yes?

I'd like to join if you don't mind. euphanized09 is my IGN

So...I think I might have been whitelisted on the old anarchy server ages ago, but I can't seem to find any evidence of that, and besides, it's probably reset since then. Anyways, looking to get back into BTW for a bit with some other people. I've played a few minutes with Flower and Battosay(well, ...

I just thought of this, but it might be interesting to see if you could design access to certain resources(mineshafts and stuff like that) around abandoned villages, and then maybe add little bits of lore to the area, like give villages names, leave books around describing stuff that's in each villa...

So I don't mean to be a (insert offensive word of choice here), but what gameplay experience are you providing with this map that isn't present in default maps? Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but it seems to me like you're moving around surface structures(villages, temples, etc.) and adding sponges...

I don't mean that to be true for all modern music, just what's considered popular music. I think there's plenty of great groups who can write really well, and it's easy to find them if you're interested in music, they just don't happen to get played on the radio every 10 minutes :P

I'm not gonna add too much more than has already been said, so I'll keep it short. Ditto to the above, similar experiences in high school, beginning of college etc. OChem taught me that some things just require time and effort no matter how smart you are. My advice is to put him in a situation where...

Just to add my own little blurb about popular American music-I think the recent stuff(past 5-10 years) has revolved around one 'artist' doing something crazy and then every other popular artist tries to one-up them with how crazy and weird they can get. I think it has something to do with the recent...

Since when has that become a cure for poison?

I use them pretty heavily atm with what I'm working on, so any changes to make them more useful/efficient would be great :)

Not at all awkward or even a subject change as I already said above that I wouldn't be providing any more details.

Must have missed that, sorry

soooooooo...awkward subject change:

It sounds to me like what you intend to do with the 'pre-releases' is somewhat similar to the vMC beta, is that sort of near the target?
