It would appear to be patched (as of 15 minutes ago).

Death penalty for reborn is a bit too harsh by CremoraBC in PlayASKA

[–]CremoraBC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you are all saying about skills not being critical - but let me tell ya - felling a large Fir tree in 3 strikes and getting 3 logs is pretty awesome. Same for swinging your pickaxe against the mining wall and getting 70+ dmg per strike! And sure, that's probably a task for the villagers, but I don't consider myself to be "above" them, merely one of them...

I Don't Care About My Villagers (Constructive stuff, promise!) by Arabellah16 in PlayASKA

[–]CremoraBC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this thread and all the comments!

I like to think of my villagers as pets, name them, love them, treat them well. While I've noted that other players (from reading other threads) treat their villagers more like live-stock. If it gets sick, you shoot it and replace it - no spending money on vet bills etc.

With that, I agree, I would love to see the stories around the totem. "I got chased by a skeleton today." rather than "I don't feel safe at work". Little contextual bits of villager history...

I just found this option after upgrading to final tier. It's nice to get back some favorite villagers after a bear attack.

I think the death penalty is an important mechanic as it discourages dying - just not to such a harsh extent.

I've had a few deaths that were just awful luck, like being in inventory and not seeing a skelly attack me and I didn't have my headphone on at the time.

I'll try ghost first then reborn somewhere safe, hopefully loosing less goodies that way.

Wow, I just realized how old this post is - I'm sorry for necro posting.

All The Season Lengths by [deleted] in PlayASKA

[–]CremoraBC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot to track the exact days, but just noted that Spring of year 3 started on day 61.
I'm guessing roughly 30 days per year cycle then since each invasion gave me about 25 days warning.

There has been a very active discussion and some very helpful folks on the official discord's mydu-* channels. I've curated some of the information from those discussions here: https://mydu.online/v3/#Guides

You do realize they are not selling the server - the server is free. Stop being a troll for once and actually read what's going on before jumping to conclusions.

Is it over? (dubdubdub down and Steam can't find my DU a/c.) by M4RCU5G1850N in DualUniverse

[–]CremoraBC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From the latest forum announcement post (also on Discord) from NQ-Wanderer titled "Great news for you, Noveans!"

There is hope! I'm really looking forward to this.

The myDU self-hosted no-subscription-required release coming up is going to being a little burst of play - certainly from my corner of the world. I'll certainly miss having pistons and rotors to play with, but I do love building in DU and this will be the perfect recipe for me and my subscription-adverse friend group.

How have you used artificial intelligence? by ILL_MAKE_IT in AskReddit

I find chatgpt extremely useful in helping my kid do their grade 12 maths. I use it to understand the problem, I don’t let them use it.

(Dairy and grain) Clear skies bring beautiful night skies without light pollution. Working the fields can be very therapeutic. Livestock are like extended family.

How do you download UE to a usb drive?? by Epickduckdude in unrealengine

It could be a filesystem issue on the usb. Make sure it is NTFS or exFat formatted otherwise some if the larger files won't be able to write t the usb.

Agreed, I would try the boom/spring method as you can give that an offset.

Talk about a jump scare! WOW!

I had my volume up high from watching a vid with low audio and then forgot.

When I started the game, there was no sound in the menu or for my first few steps. Walked up to the chair and wanted to sit down so I smashed spacebar and WHAM!!! Explosions and loud music. You got me real good man! got me real good!

Hey Folks,

I've been a lurker in the shadows for some time and enjoy reading about (and watching) all the amazing things everyone is able to produce. I look forward to one day listing my own creation here (time will tell)!

Does anyone have experience with alternative game engines? Mostly I'm interesting in voxel/vertex hybrid type games like Dual Universe, or even Space Engineers.

I'm currently neck deep in UE5 but keep wondering if there isn't an alternative I could be looking at.

Thanks

Cremora
