One Hour One Life Forums

IMO the way to solve this is to make babies not be able to run fast and add a short cooldown to jumping out of a parent's arms. Not only is it realistic but if babies cant outrun parents and slip out of their arm so often then using /die is the better option.

wtf....?

Gogo,

I was your sister that life. I spent much of my life chasing Bilbo to get you free. I wanted him to give access rather than killing him because I didn't know if others owned the gate so maybe it wouldn't fall after killing him.

He was a crafty griefer. He behaved as if he was a normal kinda noob player that inherited the fence and didn't know. When I found him and explained that he needed to follow me to the gate, the just ran off in your direction but kept missing the town. He'd go too far and say he was lost. He even ran right past you on the stone road. That's when I decided he probably wasn't a noob and that I'd just kill him. It took a while but I eventually stabbed him and he died on the road.

I might have also stabbed the woman who stole your horse "as a joke" and perhaps I overreacted but I've been griefed far too often to not stab on site when someone from another family gets on your horse. Especially after the trapped life you had. Glad you made the property yours and died happy.

Now that we are all close together, its nice to be such good friend with our neighbors.

My family had a little farm and another Eve came and started eating everything. She was very hungry and we were happy to give all of our limited food to her. She was clearly grateful. When my mom came, my mom tripped and accidentally shot the woman with an arrow. I was so scared I almost cursed the Eve but thankfully I can't curse outsiders.

Soon after we had another lovely Eve visitor who must have heard how skilled my family was with a bow. I think she wanted to learn how to use a bow so she brought her bow to us. Since I was aware of how easy it is to trip and accidentally shoot someone, I picked up our bow to show her how to use it, but that's when the eve tripped and accidentally killed my only daughter. Unfortunately I was so startled that my finger slipped too and shot the Eve. My brother was so happy to have visitors in town that he forgot to feed me and I died so happy and proud to be the last fertile family member.

As far as I understand it's still a work in progress so the size of the square we're all trapped in might get larger as ,we, the guinea pigs report on the game play. Jason is still make adjustments but the biggest issues are that:

1. Limited space means limited resources. Iron and milkweed quickly became a rare commodity and once we're out, that's it. And if you don't have iron, then you can't upgrade your well, your town will die.

2. Griefing is still just as bad because now people are using the milkweed to make bows to kill others to steal their stuff. It's more PVP now.

3. Starting a city is VERY hard and food runs out fast. Which also means that you can't just give birth and feed your kids. You have to choose which kids to let die, which is most because you can't support them and they will eat up more food than the town can create. Most due to limited iron (causing very limited water).

4. There is a short window when eves spawn then once that closes, you are only born into a current family which also causes more and more kids to have to let starve.

That's awesome! Your attempt worked out way better than mine. I had decided that I would make a BP before going on my nomad journey and making that from scratch tool too long because it included creating finding enough milkweed for string and a rope for the fire bow drill and hatchet needed to cook a rabbit to get the needle. As I was building the BP, I had a daughter who kept asking "where is home?" and I'd tell her we don't have one, I'm a nomad.  She wanted a city life so we wished each other luck and she left me. As I finished off my bp and headed out I ran into my daughter and her two children. I tried to warn her that there wasn't iron or much food in the area that it was better to keep moving but they wanted to stay with their tiny berry farm. Which they quickly depleted and starved. At this point I was too old for any more kids so I think if I try nomadism again then I'll wait till I have kids and they are older and we can slowly work on building clothes on the go.

I think Wolf will die out soon. They had a shallow well but no iron to upgrade it and when I was there just a few min ago they ran out of water, and soon after will be food. Afifi will be more successful (potentially) because last I saw they had 5 iron and were growing milkweed but they live in the area with no maple so they can't use their iron.

"The game wasn't fundamentally challenging before" no but it was FUN before. I was binge playing OHOL almost every night since I bought it. Tonight I'm going to play something else for the first time since buying this. I'm not saying that as a threat "oh I'm going to leave" I'm saying I did not have fun today. I hope things change.

The game currently plays more like a survival game than a game about building and parenting. I hope the cities grow though I really don't see how without ways to replenish supplies.

I wonder if things settled because others (like me) ran out of lives from this.

Yes please!!!! +1

Including allowing no text limit on curses so that children can still curse people. Kids are griefed so often in this game.

Poking many bears and bringing them to a city
- Cause: Poking a bear cave does not kill you.
- Effect: Griefers will poke multiple bear caves in an area and bring them all to a city for the purpose of killing everyone.
- Possible fix: Poking a bear cave is an instant bite.
- Possible fix: Bear caves not spawning within X tiles of each other.
- Possible fix: Bears already die with 3 arrows but maybe if can bleed out, maybe 3 minutes with 2 arrows and bleeding out in 8 minutes with just 1 arrow.
