One Hour One Life Forums

For the record, Discorders will always be salty, but the best players in the game generally agree that this new meta sounds alright (we'll only really know once we actually play it).

Also need to kill a goose with a bow if you ever want to have carts.

I think everyone who's anti-knife are American liberals. The most successful civilisations are those with knives, fact. The longest lasting public settlement had over 15 knives (~70 or so gens). Sure, there were massacres, but that was typically when there were too many people and community distrust was high - like in real life. If you treat your fellow man well, he will reciprocate. Knives aren't the problem.

Hop into the official Discord too - all the good players except for Morti are there. We're always happy to help either in text or voice.

I assume you mean carrot farming? 5 carrots produces enough calories for 2-4 people, when used for making mutton pies. You shouldn't eat carrots, unless they're in a pie (which you should definitely make for the young and elderly - don't give me any bullshit about dough being expensive, 1 water is fuckall, and getting rid of threshed wheat is awesome). You should teach something difficult to learn and that's significantly more useful like being a shepherd, miller, potter, or composter - which are all in-demand skills atm. Enough people know how to bake and smith, so don't bother unless asked.

We need more shepherds if want advanced civilisations. Carrot farming causes civilisation stagnation.

When born and/or spawn as Eve, you have a grace period where your food bar doesn't go down (something like 15 seconds, never counted). After the grace period, it's then based on your temperature, like always.

The OP is referring to when you eat, you get that line that tells you how much your food restored. You should nearly NEVER eat something if it's wasteful. Berries feed 5, carrots 7, cactus 10. Don't mass produce rabbit + carrot pies, because it's a waste of a carrot. If you're a baker and you're primarily making rabbit + carrot pies, then YOU ARE a noob/misinformed.

Kids should eat either berries, or carrot pies - NOT carrots. Carrots are not for food, except during the first few generations before sheep farming occurs. The new meta is sheep based economies - they produce our clothes, soil, and are a food multiplier (mutton pie). If you have more carrot farmers than shepherds, then you're doing it wrong.

This. Unless there is an active smith, baker, or potter, LET THE FIRE DIE. It takes all of 15 seconds to relight the fire if you didn't chop down all the juniper and maple trees in the area (which you should never do).

I don't fully agree with your premise. This past week I've taught people how to make plates, basics of smithing, berry care, and shepherding. The biggest problem I've found is that we need to spend more of our lives being productive than we did in the past. I've been in the process of teaching someone, then had to bail because there was something crucial that needed to be done - e.g. griefer, tool needing to be replaced, sheepocalypse, people needing directions etc.

I think the onus is on the new player to ask for help, but it'd definitely be a step in the right direction if you ask your offspring (time permitting) if there's anything they want to learn. I'll often ask a baby (still only 5-10% of them) if they want to learn something that is currently necessary for the town, like pottery (which is ALWAYS useful), or berry maintenance. I'll sometimes stand in places like the carrot farm and tell people they gotta pick shit or else it despawns, or tell them to get an actual job, and maybe take one to be my apprentice.

Given we struggle surviving as it is, if the top 10% of players (virtually the only productive members) are also teaching, then it's going to be much harder. Some jobs are easier with an apprentice though.

Edit: @Pein I've only ever seen 1 town capable of sustaining 30 babies, but that was on server 15.

This. If you don't tell your family that you love them on the daily then you're doing it wrong. Also, I've had dads and been a dad in the game before. I've cared solely for my children too, even though it was very inefficient (because I couldn't breastfeed). I've had many games where people would bring food to the nursery - it takes a village to raise a baby :3

If there's bad people, then become a forager. I'm sick and tired of all you plebs hanging out in towns and never leaving to hunt rabbits or collect rope, kindling or cactus fruit. You're probably being killed because you're not observant and/or targeted for being a slacker.

Just want to say fuck you Yasemin for lying to us all about killing Elaria, then learning how to care for sheep and wells from me. I got you in the end, you fucker.

Also, the lineage block is too harsh in my opinion. 2 hours might be better.

I think the temperature system in the game works well. Watch Naked and Afraid - sometimes they cold af, sometimes they aight.
