I agree that the camera can sometimes be annoyingly off center, but if you move around a bit it resolves itself.

He's addressed WASD controls before. They're not likely to come. A recent code change, however, made it so that clicking and dragging doesn't activate an object, which was incredibly annoying for walking long distances.

I don't personally have any qualms with the speech portion. Sometimes when I don't have as many characters that I want, I look at the time and realize I'm not as old as I originally thought. Normally when you're young, you're taking orders anyway. So I haven't had much trouble with this or being more concise.

I do agree that something should be done for the item management. While your particular problem can be prevented by having baskets dedicated to only carrots, I think an easy fix to the basket problem could be just to use a mouse wheel to scroll through container contents. There have been other forum topics about this, too. Personally, I'd like to see backpacks clickable through hair before being able to scroll through basket items.

Sorry, I don't mean to be a downer on all your points; I share those frustrations. But honestly, I've found they can add to the game sometimes, requiring you to adapt and adjust.

Sometimes the local storage goes away for some reason. I had this happen to me once a few days ago, and I just re-entered my info.

The real reason. Plus, how many players would rather starve and respawn as an able-bodied person than be unable to move or see or eat gooseberries?

(I hate the real-world implications of this question, by the way, and completely disavow the merits of such a strategy in real life... though I hope that goes without saying).

Ah, I see what you mean. Though to be fair, that estimate ranges from 0.05% to 1.17%, and some syndromes, like Klinefelter's, make up the majority of those diseases. Reproductively speaking, this mostly manifests as infertility. Maybe two changes could be made like a small proportion of males having breasts or some females being infertile, but that would probably confuse players more than educate them about the conditions.

I'd leave them to starve. Little room for disabilities right now.

In terms of gender binaries, people are still born physically male or female. Obviously there are exceptions where humans with both genitalia are born, or times when physical sex does not match genetic sex (such as Swyer, XX male, and hell lets add mosaicism, too). However, most of the time, genitalia matches secondary sex characteristics, while gender identity may not.

In the game, if you really want to get into this, say whatever gender your character identifies as. Perhaps shears could allow us to cut hair in the style of our identified gender like in ARK. Unfortunately, there wasn't much else for intersex people to do about it back then, especially when you have a dangling penis or milk-filled breasts.

Without children, settlements don't continue. With 1 parent/ 1 child rules, a small matriarchal hamlet of 3 to 4 people can operate with remarkable potency and stability. When I raise a boy I remove that stability. He can't reproduce, so he puts more strain on the women to reproduce. The autonomy gained by not having children is negligible, as many mothers can still do the work they need to between intermittently feeding the child.

Until reproduction is sexual (or at the very least requires a male and female to be close to each other), I will continue to disregard male babies, because they are literally inferior to female babies. Even when I'm born a male, I run off into the woods to be eaten by a wolf or starve. Xoomorg said it well:

I could only see oceans or rivers working if there were obvious drawbacks to using them in farming. Otherwise it ruins the scarcity of water. For instance, if you used ocean water for crops, you might ruin your tilled row due to hypersalinity. Could be fixed with salt purifiers?

Rivers would certainly be interesting. Would that create an impassable barrier though? Would you have a "wet" modifier if you decided to pass through it, which could increase hunger depletion when cold?

Granted, its something to think about that pretty much every successful ancient civilization was placed next to a river or ocean.

Indeed. Perhaps towns can begin to make a practice of having bows and arrows every screen or so, so villagers can quickly react to seeing a murder.

The most lag that I've encountered has been waiting a few seconds for my command to be followed. Sometimes my character will disappear from the screen and catch back up, but its nothing close to what you've been experiencing. Most of the time, connection interruptions are barely perceptible for me.
