I suppose I shouldn't really expect posts authored by praying mantes to make much sense.

Wait... now I'm confused. Kamin != FritzPL... unless I'm missing an inside joke. I admit I don't really follow many discussions here. Y'all must know each other. *Shakes cane* Gorramn kids! Take yer inside jokes and git!

que what in the what

oh, that was two days ago. sorry, my memory does not reach as far. what was my name again?

New update was released. Changelog

Dogs will now follow you while they're off their leash, you can issue some basic commands to them and even name them.

I ordered my dog to attack an elk, to my surprise he had been able to cripple it just as it went off-screen. By the time I got to it, he'd killed it. Vicious little guy.

Upgraded my game and killed off my longest-lasting character thus far (the two are not directly related.)

Liking some of the interface changes, although I don't know why they still haven't fixed the fact that trying to activate a fishing rod doesn't.. you know... fish (it currently fails without an error message.)

Spoiler: Talking about my character (click to show/hide)

Had a good trapwall strung between two lakes, so that anything trying to get around would have to pass through. Managed to catch a big 300 pound elk and a smaller 150ish pound deer with it... both long before my cabin was complete, so I ended up having to roast it all and haul the food around to villages to trade for whatever I could before it all spoiled. One of the things I traded for was a fine fishing rod, which I figured would provide some fish on the side for all the meat that would soon be mine.

Of course, after those two big catches, nothing fell into my trapwall for the next 60-odd days. My character starts starving, as the occasional fish I manage to catch only prolongs my suffering. Still, however, as autumn rolls around, I've got a couple of pike smoking in my cabin, just in case I manage to live 'till winter. Swans keep taunting me from the lake by my cabin, since there's just about no way I'm going to hit one with a javalin.

I head out one last time as the trees lose their leaves, hoping to run into some game. I run into a vagabond hunter. With 2% starvation and nothing but a couple of roasted roaches in my belly, the hunter looked like little more then a bundle of walking meat that happened to be wearing clothing and was carrying a bow and arrows I could really use to kill those damn swans. Even taking him by surprise, it still took a number of blows before I downed him. With hunger in my eyes, I started breaking him down to cuts of meat... only to find that he wasn't alone - someone comes out of the forest behind me, and a single blow to the back of the head finishes off my hunter-turned-fisher-turned-soon-to-be-cannibal.

Question for you all: it seemed like my trapwall only caught things while I was travelling. Will animals wander near your homestead while you're in it, or should I have placed my house a square or two away from my trapwall instead of right on top of it?

Op updated with the new version links, thanks for the heads-up Jehdin. \o/

Ive caught stuff in a trap fence that I build around all my houses now after a wolf/back of head incident.  Deer, bears, wolves, no worries.  Really comes down to where you build your house though, as with normal trap fence, high game spot catches stuff, other spots you will see nothing.  Later game I also often put down heaps of loop snares inside my house fence and catch alot of birds on a regular basis.

I've had herds of elk and beavers run through my house, not to mention the three lynx that stood at my front door while I smacked them with a rock because I was out of arrows and couldn't grab the sword sitting on a table inside.

So can you steal in the game?

yes

The shopkeeps seem to never sleep though. I read the exploit with a pack animal, but I dun wanna do that.

[jester]

The pack animal exploit has been taken out, if you want to steal, you have to kill to get stuff.

Anyone know a good make-everything-yourself-from-nothing mod? I'm getting tired of having to hang around the south-west all the time to get stuff I need before I can head north-east.

I actually posted a quick cheat mod for this actually:

Move the diy_transmutation.txt and menudef_transmutation files into your game folder, they should show up in the "M"ake menu.

There's also a uber-char save I posted on the URW forum. I remember something ridiculous like walking at over 40km per hour.

I managed to murder an entire town all by myself.
