Excellent, thanks, FC!

Given the spate of recent updates, I believe this is appropriate here:

I see your cheesy 80s metal reference, and raise you:



I'd highly recommend folding before someone gets hurt :)

90s is greater than 80s.

I consume a lot of YouTube. Some of what I consume is actually pretty good.

I have no idea what that's referencing, but since I find it kinda weird that I've actually been to that club, ok... let's go with that :)

The lyrics are, "It's not Enough." In response to your awesome releases. And of course it was also a poke at 80s hair metal, because, well, let's face it: 80s hair metal. :D

"Pumpkins found in the wild will now either be Carved, or regular Pumpkins depending on whether you're within the Hardcore Spawn radius."

The levels of detail have always impressed me- its the little things like this which really make the mod shine. Thanks for the update. you rock!

I guess I'm going all in
Phantom screams echo through the ruined facility
A horrible silence builds an eerie tranquility
The souls of many innocent fill the air
The hope they all died with scattered down there

Deleted the post I was responding to here, at Fister's request.

Huh? No, that's not at all my play style. I generally settle in place at original spawn right from the start with occasional hunting trips to supplement my food supply. I also tend to farm Hemp while caving for diamond, so that Hemp growth will benefit from my proximity. As a result, if a hoe isn't my very first tool, it quickly follows.

As to the other points, I don't think this makes significant changes to hoe vs. pick choices as farming hemp is still probably the earliest game method to sustainable food through Hemp and chickens.

The changes to the balance of early game nomadic play are certainly intentional though, although please don't post spoilers in release threads, even if they're spoilers for past releases.

Had just talked my wife into starting our 6 (maybe 7th) playthrough with A6. Spawned in right next to jungle but there was a tiny patch of grasslands before an ocean. In a stroke of luck we also found pumpkins so it was obvious this was where first home would be. I don't think I'll mention the pumpkin change to her for our next playthrough. :) We start hemp early but the discovery of pumpkins was always the thing that marked the transition to sustainable-food for us.

We're still not far in but he boat changes so I can't just jump into one on the first large body of water I come across and quickly explore has really made the world a MUCH larger place to start in. Neat stuff.

Thank you so much for all your work, FC!

Just wondering if this affects adult wolves at all too. I often have a wolf in his pooping room and he will teleport to me, I want to say this happens during rain but I cant be sure.
