The latest version is crashing for me whenever I attempt to use a fire-starter to finish off a forge construction. Also I've generated 5 different worlds and they're all super island-y with tons of water, there really is no mainland to be found anywhere. Strange..

problem is, it seems we wll have to abandon the map :P so no settling on armok's throne.

Well let's just hope the new world will have some interesting geographical features as well.
Preferably closer to spawn.

I suggest that that system is a terrible idea because you'd need 6 3/4 stacks of chipped to make an exquisite.
Ain't seeing you making a better idea...
Stop being all negative if you don't have anything helpful other then criticism...

So what types of gems are the rarest? Which one is the most common?
Let us base the economic system on that is my opinion.

Gems pop out in two ways.
1: Sluices. Really Common that way and there is no set pattern to it, I have gotten both Exquisite and Chipped from the same Sluice.
2: Mining. Gems are a RANDOM drop when mining stone, I do not know what the pattern here is but they can drop at any time while mining...

I think if gems would be craftable into placeable colored blocks (maybe partially transparent like glass) then price of gems would be naturally tied to both their rarity and aesthetic utility. I don't know if this has already been mentioned on the TFC suggestions forum.

What if we base it on LoZ's color scheme?

Green being the lowest.


Emerald = 1
Sapphire = 5
Topaz = 10
Ruby = 20
Ametyst = 50

and so on..

Hey guys, still alive here. Lost power for about a day, but already have it back. About 70% of the people in my county lost power, and about 50% still haven't got it back. Storm seems pretty much over though. Was mostly the snow and ice bringing down trees. The wind wasn't actually that terrible.

Since it seems that we'll have to start a new map for the new update, I was thinking we could do a better job this time around as well. When we switch over to the new version I think for about a day we'll scout out the new map and just explore until we find a really nice mountain or two we can carve into.

I'll move the spawn to it and we can move from there. We can build maybe a single building above ground (while we prepare to dig in) but mostly keep the fort underground and inside the mountain.

Of course there are some people who just don't want to build in the group and the 'hermits' can still do as they please. For people who want to play in a group though, I don't think we should setup any outposts or such. We just don't have enough people to spread them out to different settlements. Maybe that'll change in the future, but for now we should mostly stick together I think.

Later today I'll hopefully be checking out the new versions.

Yes, I agree that outpost early in the game is a bad idea.
We should wait until all the requirements for a propper mountainhome is in place. (In my opinion.)

Well thats 5/13 Gems handled. BUT how does it come across to the value of each item that could be bought, this is why its not easy to work out...
Also the reason for limiting only Exquisite to being used to buy things is due to the fact that being able to spawn things in really pulls a lot of the challenge out of the game, making it difficult to get items for 'free' would keep things more balanced...

Except there is only sometimes a yellow rupee, and when it does exist, it tends to be a very big one like 50 or 100.

Wait no that's gold. There're only yellow rupees in Wind Waker, so...let's just go with that, I guess.

I tend to be a stupid person. Expect me to say/do stupid things and we'll probably get along better!

Still does not solve the different levels of Gems or the cost of the actual items to buy... Seriously Baneling. Start giving suggestions other then a +1
