I like it, I can't wait.

[Gamerlord]

So long as a visible grid is implemented I'll be happy with that. A way to switch would be nice though.

[Robsoie]

It looks very nice but i must say after playing so much i grew really fond of the current top down way the game is displayed, it will take me time to get used to this new isometric visuals.
I can only hope it will be possible to toggle between the isometric high res and the top down "classic" lower res view

Anyways that's for the future, i can't wait for more development on the current 3.18 version, it's already very good so far.

Sami already pointed out that graphics will be moddable so people will prolly develop bazillion different graphics for this.

Not a fan, personally, but if it's moddable, I guess it doesn't matter that much. Give me a "original graphics" mod.

So I might have discovered a bug.

Just to the south of my settlement I regularly encounter Hirvo the Vagabond Woodsman. Until recently I have been content to let him do his thing (chop wood, start fires, not much else...) as he served as a useful wolf, bear and Njerpez magnet/early warning system/meatshield. Since clearing the area of bears and wolves and building my house though he wanders over and starts generally being a nuisance with my farm, wood stock and livestock. So, I murdered and cooked him.

Now, a week later, who shows up? Yep, Hirvo the Vagabond Woodsman, as friendly as ever, carrying the same gear I just sold for some smoked fish at the village a few km over. This time I shall not waste my time on killing him and simply wait for him to fall in my trapped entranceway and see if he ressurects again - something to do while I muster up a warband to take down the nearby Njerpez camp.

[Mephansteras]

Hmm, you know, I had a few vagabond dudes near my trap fence that were having problems with it for a while. Lots of falling into pit traps and crawling out badly injured. I didn't look at the names, but they did all have the exact same stuff to trade (a rope and 4 roast badger cuts). I wonder if the game isn't properly generating vagabonds for some reason.


On that note, is there some way to get a body out of a pit trap without cutting it up? I don't go for the whole cannibalism thing and it seems disrespectful to butcher someone just to get them out of a pit.

[sluissa]

Should be able to stand next to the pit and drag it, similar to how you can do to logs. But I haven't played the latest version.

The earliest URW (which is nothing like it is now) was ASCII

After finally collecting the last batch of the 35 stones (not little rocks) required to complete my little house fireplace , i was going back home to start building and noticed some fresh tracks.


I was a bit concerned that my cellar would have been visited, fortunatly not , after sneaking around to check if i could find the animal , i finally abandonned after finding nothing.

And then i started building my fireplace, until


I ran after the fox, shooting my last 2 arrows with my bow and missing , the fox disappeared into the wilderness, damn waste of food.

Anyways, i could resume work and complete finally my fireplace.


Since then i built a sleeping bunk on the last available tile (maybe i should have build the house bigger, but it would have taken much more time to gather all the trees trunks needed and making more walls.

And apparently, the smoked trouts i had fetched without anyone noticing in the previous version, have now the villagers of the nearby fortified town treating me as a thief in the new version, they must have recieved some telepathic power to know that i had those trouts that in the previous version absolutely none noticed me taking.

Oh well.

All the villagers simultaneously wake from a dead sleep screaming ROBSOIE STOLE MY TROUT in unison.

Hmm, further to the vagabond spawning bug mentioned earlier.

A woodsman spawed in no mans land near an isolated Njerpez camp had the identifier "Njerpez Woodsman". He aggroed on sight and I had to kill him. 

[Robsoie]

Maybe he was looking after his lost trouts

Are you sure he didn't spawn within Njerpez territory? If there's a(n?) Njerpez camp on the map, then a chunk of the world map will show as Njerpez territory. And NPCs encountered within Njerpez territory will act like them.
