Plants no longer spawn in naturally occurring patches on the map. Instead, we have a new herb: The Wild Windsown Weed. The Windsown Weed can be dried in either a drying frame, or on a herbalists table, and, once it's dried, it converts to a plantable seed of some kind. Drying takes 2 ingame days in a drying frame, and eight ingame hours on a Herbalist's Table.

Uh oh...

also there are some eagles under the floorboards ... the flood of water was interesting.

Just discovered this game.  Have two characters with cabins, and one claimed area in three days.

Did not realize the server was resetting.  ARGH.  Ah well, at least now I know what I'm doing.

Would love to throw my lot in with people who have been hardened by Dwarf Fortress ...

The Sherver Has happered to have hcrashed.

But hey! New boulders! And trees! Hazel nuts! Willows!

If I interpret the first post right, none of the things we are looking for exist. There are no quality points, everything just rises equally. So, if that is the case, the immediate need is to band together in an area large enough that we can expand there. Anyone's HearthSecret will do, and will be appreciated by the community.

Making a new Character... is there some sort of bay12 community plan?

[PTTG??]

Nonono... there will be quality points; they are the MAXIMUM quality an area can have. So there ARE Q-points.

It's really unstable there, but it should be OK after an hour or two, I hope.

I say that we stick around in our starting places and try to prospect. Just narrow down our options until we find someplace with gold, or a great coastal area, or some other useful resource. I found myself in the middle of the grassland, for instance, with nothing particularly exciting other than some nice willow and hazelnut trees. And chickens, I suppose.

Have you ever prospected before? It is nut-stompingly hard.

[kiffer.geo]

ARGH!!!! you can only take a few branches from a tree before they stop giving now!!!

[PTTG??]

Have you ever prospected before? It is nut-stompingly hard.

Well, yes and no... tracking down enough roots and then triangulating the location of the mines is tough, but getting hold of one root and doing a quick radar scan should be enough to make a decision.

Also, sum Proof

"Quality Points
Quality points actually no longer exist, though you need not be overly concerned about that, as it is mostly a behind the scenes change. Quality is instead saved per the map format, allowing for much shorter lookup time on the quality data. The main effects you will notice are:

A) Quality decreases as you exctract materials from a particular area. The quality grows back again over time.
B) Shallow water only yields clay if there is actually a clay quality point in the vicinity. All other spots will yield exactly one unit of Q10 clay, which will immediately drop the area below yieldable range, which, in turn, grows back in about a day or so."

So, clay quality is still like the olden days. Everything else is just time based, except trees.

Count me in. Send me a PM with w/e info I'll need to find the place.

That is if I can ever get the hearth and haven page to load... 

Edit: And we have liftoff!

I'll chime in with you guys when things have settled down.
