I think it should be like that again.. No reason why we can't share a home marker. It even makes more sense that way. People usually know the way home.
Hey, I didn't know that, thank you! I was always afraid I'd get someone lost in the wilderness if I destroy their marker. Although I totally agree, there should be only one maker in the village that everybody get connected to. Plus it would have additional sentimental value: "This, my child, is the maker your grand-grandma made very long ago when she found this place. Since then every member of our family has left their own mark on it. You are a part of this line, and your kids will be too." Much in the theme of the game, I think.
Also, things like jewelry or maybe even masonry and glass (for windows) are kind of in the "entertainment" category, which people would only pursue once they had the basics of survival ironed out. That's why the fabric dyes were putting the cart before the horse. More food tech is needed before people care about the color of their clothing.
I'm sorry for stating the obvious, but I think for inspiration you should look more (than already) at our very early civilisations. I mean the first ones: they were foraging and hunting.
Obviously you got foraging covered, and even the next step from that - farming. But hunting? We got rabbits and geese (they don't respawn?). But there is a lot more animals in the game. Right now hunting wolves and seals gives us only fur. Mutton you have to make into pie (I think?), which is great but also - next step. Right now bows are mostly murder tools, while it should (in my mind) be one of greater food sources at this point. Meat could (again, in my mind) be cooked on fire like rabbits, or with a bowl, ... dunno, carrot and a berry to make a stew?
My point is: Early people got lots of roasts for dinner! Give us meat!
Then, IMO next step from that should be food storage. I mean some kind of primitive ice chamber? That would give new purpose to building huts, and maybe that glass? Wood doesn't work well with much moisture after all... And there are already snow piles and frozen ponds in game. Just something to think about...
But farming update is great anyway. New water system is much more natural.
No, its different. Happened to me a few times. Even when I know that my mom got a marker I don't see it, even when I'm far away. And then other times I inherit it with no problem....
If someone could explain why it happens?
