food lasts a while on its own, and fridges exist. Stock up on some ape grapes and be good to go for a while yet. Or pack a hunting laserbow and make a campfire wherever...

I just take food when I see it and cook whatever I can, whenever I can cook it. Having most of your food slots full, even if it's a lot of 1 stack berries, really helps in the long run.

Anyone seen this mod?

http://community.playstarbound.com/resources/frackinuniverse.2920/

The whole thing seems to solve the depth issues I've been having, but that one-way modding the whole universe seems pretty harsh, even if I can just make a backup of my current stuff.

I'll probably try it anyway unless someone here tried it and it drank all the good beer in the fridge or whatever.

It's pretty fun to me. I haven't seen a lot of its content but it adds quite a few new biomes, items, I'd assume enemies, etc.

I took a look at it. Once the ennui of vanilla wears off I have plans to run a server using that mod.

Good, I didn't want to stay on vanilla shit just for multiplayer.

Seriously though, a food system like ARK (I think) where food stacks and rots one at a time would have been basically the same except vastly less annoying.

Why bother having food rot? Once you spend a hour or two in game you can't real run out of food especially since you can teleport back pretty much anytime.

Not from the underground you can't, unless you're in Admin mode.

Why even go underground?  I made my gear 100% from just looting friendly villages.

Because every once in a while I like to pretend I'm not a murderous psychopath with kleptomania. I'll admit those moments are rare, but they do occur.

Shit. I wish I'd known about that before starting my new character. Now, to continue with this character until I exhaust the vanilla game materials, or to just cut my losses, install this mod, and start over in a much more interesting universe....

Wait, you're not supposed to be able to teleport from underground? That's strange, given that I'm pretty sure I'm not in admin mode and can always teleport from any place, including underground.
It's probably just a mod. Or maybe the difficulty setting?

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!

Difficulty setting, casual allows teleport from anywhere, survival only allows teleport near the surface.

I think you can teleport underground by knocking a hole in the back wall, though that might only work if your above the transition to caves line.

Yeah, that only works if you knock a hole in the backwall and see light instead of more rock.

Also yeah, casual might be allowing teleport from anywhere. Which might be a good case for switch the mod from "add hunger to Casual" to "lose less items in Survival". :P
