Steve family

http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … _id=514938

mom was smart one, shoved soil, most of city and asked for compost

i did one pretty fast and hid some carrot

we had no shears no tools, was a mess, people made pies and took bowls from forge then back
and we needed bowls to fix farm, hoe to continue other crops, most tools scattered, lot of garbage
made a big wheat farm only that people cut it all later and had to force feed pie to get plates back

so i went out and lost a son on the way in ice, did a 180 around city and found east some clay and many ponds

so i made wet bowls but had no time to burn them

i started making buckets as our water ran out, two wells depleted (30 water got lost when i put one to other as they didnt see other well 10 tiles away)
made extra 3 buckets and got water from ponds
fixed berry and when famine happened got a girl, lady gave me pack, and clothed my daughter then she just died in berry at age 5, luckily gear wasnt lost

people just sacrificed each other for good harvest instead of working

we ended up beeing like 5-6 persons, most of them newbies, i made a shvoel and two more compost, but died at 58 cause was too hot and wanted to make two blades to shears but died on adze phase, ope they could hit it in time
daughter made pies cause didnt know smithing, told her many times to stay home raise kids as she was last female

Re: Steve family

Aww, hey Phoebe. I was your mom.

I think, yes, there were lots of new players. Also, someone kept making the oven into a kiln. Might be simple ignorance or a new griefer tactic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Though, there's something to be said for building kitchens far away from the smith station...

I was sorry to see the little village fall apart like that. Thanks for working as hard as you did, Pheobs. Mom luvs you <3

Re: Steve family

Apparently sometime in the Steve history you guys migrated from our original home. I ended up eveing the original city again after believing the original lineage had died off due to griefing. Once that life was over I was reborn to Willow Steve which was actually from the thought dead Steve line.

If anyone has any idea which way the Original Steve Colony is from the secondary I'd love to attempt to reconnect the villages. Sadly, the first Steve lineage is now extinct and the second may or may not still be running.

i did the second one, cause we had two kilns but too far to be viable
you need it max 2 tiles away from each other

i got 12 clay, 3 went into adobe from wheat, and with two i made an oven further to right side

you need at least 5x5 space for a kiln, and extra for second, oven has nothing to do near a kiln
and each station would need its own plates/bowls 3-4 each belongs to kiln as long as all tools are made

thats why pies and stew was  bad ideea
also limits work as people cant put soil to berry if cant find a bowl
we patched it nicely after my clay but was too late

hardest part was trying to tell them where is water

as it was only a small desert, a move could of fixed water issues
maybe potato planting, but im not experienced at that

Re: Steve family

Ahh, okay. You "evolved" an oven. Mystery solved.

To reiterate, I'd like to see more villages with kitchen stations set up far away from the smithy. It would also be cool to see more dedicated pottery kilns away from the smithy too.

There never seem to be enough bowls and, every time I've spent a life as a smithy, my crucible bowls have been nabbed for farming or pie making, lol. Potter is a profession that is sometimes dearly needed in young villages but scarcely seen. It's a good thing to think about when little babies ask their mom "what - do?"

In our little village, I recall seeing two deep wells and a large artic biome to the east. No, I don't remember a lot of desert tiles or ponds. I'm sure it was founded for it's proximity to the green space to the south.

Re: Steve family

wasnt much desert
but were a lot of ponds east south east
didnt see much viable spots around, mostly badlands to West northwest and more ice north
only no one went that far to ponds, was pretty easy once you went under the ice just had no time for road

btw i was steve steve
http://lineage.onehouronelife.com/serve … &id=515557

looked a bit decayed/griefed but wont say too many generations were there
more like people moved?
seen no apron but was some wool pads, so maybe
stumps still there
and some tree in swamp so looked 6th gen not repopulated
a pen to left and one to right, with sheep but no corners, the only girls only girl took the only needle and died somewhere
and her mom stabbed an old guy and couldnt save him
i sent out a young guy to find other steves and went out other direction
seen a bone to top left and some berries munched on the edge but not many, went spiral way around but didnt see anything similar to other steve city
this was mostly green and savannah and tons of bones

i think oven needs to come after sheep, and some extra bowls and plates, also if wheat comes near pen, pen goes on edge of city to be extendable, oven should be under pen or inner side

another design would be having 3 kilns in a row, two smaller pens diagonally up from it then an oven in between,thas a 5 wide room
wanted to do some generic design with wells when it was placeable but then it changed and never really had time
i made cool designs with boxes and graves just always forgot screenshots or cant finish in one life
and now new players kinda limit actual building time
