plague, sanitation, and bone needles

first of all, got to say i enjoy this game, but it seems weird that you specifically need rabbit bones from a cooked rabbit to make bone needles.
IMO, bone needles should be possible to make from any bones. the bones of your dead children for example.
smash the bones to pieces, and then use flint to chip bone needles.
second i think you should be able to eat raw rabbit, with a random chance of catching a stat-reducing disease, that can be spread through
your village from proximity. e.g temporary lower health, reduced speed, reduced nutrition from food...
or the ability to destroy the rabbit meat so you can get the bones.
also, i think milkweed needs to spawn more milkweed stalks.
it's a bit silly running around your entire life hunting milkweed so you can finally put on rabbitskin pants at the tender age of 59. (naturally you need a the milkweed for that firebow,
hatchet, hoe, rabbit trap... )
also, ability to use the yew branch to thresh wheat.

Playing OHOL optimally is like cosplaying a cactus: stand still and don't waste the water.

Re: plague, sanitation, and bone needles

It is a tech gate, but I agree with you.

I would love it if there were diseases. Then again... griefers.

Thank you for your suggestions!
It would interesting to see mothers abandon their first child, just because they want to make a needle out of his/her bones...

There is a special OneHourOneLife SubReddit for these kind of suggestions.
Post your idea there, so people can vote you up when they agree it should be a part of the game.

(And also, everybody knows a yew branch is absolutely not fit for that kind of work you are talking about wink.)

Re: plague, sanitation, and bone needles

What annoys me is that you have to make fire first before the needle. We dont need to fucking roat the rabbit to use his bones.

I really would like to jump fire stage for crafting clothes because being a nomade ask to start a settlement everyfime, and it isn't a nomad style life.

True dat You can keep decent kit in a backpack though, flint, sharp, round, needle leaves basket for food, but you need bow for strangers..
