No.
Not until we get a tech tree that takes us beyond nukes.
Japan shows that even nukes would be only a major setback, not an apocalypse.
The monolith causing an apocalypse is stupid magic and shouldn't be in the game.

Speed up regrowth of everything.

It doesn't take 30-60 years for plants to regrow. Especially now with decay we need a more realistic regrowth time on everything.

Also:
Bamboo - edible shoots, or let grow for stalks to make baskets and all sorts of cheap short decay stuff (bowls, walls, furniture, etc.)
Definitely needs Hemp as @Potjeh suggested, makes strong fibers = rope directly.

That's not true, I know because I have rung the bell before. I was a boy born into a large town. Large enough it had guards in blue outfits with wagons full of supplies. (I assume they clean up as they make their rounds?) I was following the wooden roads to see where they went and a guard saw me. He showed me his knife, but didn't kill me. He recognized my family name and gave me a full set of clothes. He showed me the town bell tower, and then went on his way. I couldn't resist, I rang the bell. At the time I didn't know it did anything at all beyond making a ringing sound. I'd heard that sound before in previous lives... and I would hear it again in my next... My next life I was a boy to a wonderful mother who was keeping a fairly advanced homestead running all by herself. She had a few daughters after me but while I was out hunting rabbits everyone died off one way or another. Being the lone survivor I organized everything neatly. Made a full set of rabbit fur clothes and a backpack for whoever might find the place after me. Filled all the baskets with carrots, and left the farm ready to restart. I had nothing left to do so I took a cart full of baskets and thought I might hunt another set of clothes worth of rabbits - when I noticed I had a home marker. I didn't know the bell tolling had anything to do with it. I wondered if my mother had survived after all and that marker was pointing me to her new location. So West I went, for years and years following that marker. It became mesmerizing to see where it went. So much so I forgot to check my food gauge and died fumbling to get a carrot out of my backpack. What an embarrassing way to go. I hope someone found my bones with a full set of clothes, food, and a cart full of rabbits. Enjoy.

You can cure the "never come down" rebirth state by eating another mushroom.

If you don't let baby deaths trigger a server change, then it takes effort to die fifteen times in an hour. Consider the final server "hell" and that player continues to respawn there until the initial hour is up.

I think more importantly parenting happens to both women and men. Since the game has no genetics, mating, or pregnancy, it is reasonable for men to become fathers as well. Problem solved.

Could we have rare cabbage plants/seeds that will spawn a baby for those towns left with only males or the elderly (or anyone) who still want to adopt kids? Automatic last name should be Cabbage, and Eves can't chose that last name.

Women do all the same things, and ignoring babies amounts to exactly the same life as male players with the only difference being that males have no option to reproduce - ever. Sure that uselessness makes them expendable but only in so far as they shouldn't have been raised in the first place. With the new Eve spawning far away algorithm villages only survive by continuing their lineage which is so precarious that men, as the currently are, are always a burden.

Having men also become dads is more realistic than the current set up. The interesting dynamic is how they would have to feed a baby manually, or find the village wet nurse, since they can't breast feed. Becoming a parent should be an option for everyone.

I'm hoping for rivers and oceans, then aqueducts, then plumbing.
Forestry, a granary, mead, jerky, preserves and canning.
Dirt roads.
Boats.

EDIT: covered wagons, dysentery

Signposts would be great, especially for the lost or new Eve/Adam who needs to find a village before they starve.

I've been in many places where the babies are all left by the fire, and the Nanny/Wet Nurse/Teacher tells them all the current rules.
It would be interesting to see if a central "The Book" could be crafted where all the rules or stories or whatever of a village could be written. It would be nice for kids to be able to read it before they wandered off into village life. It would also be nice in that final raisin life stage before you die to write a few words of wisdom for those that might follow.
