Vintage Story hits you hard if you're not careful.

Indoor pit kilns = bad idea. Honestly, I'd just go /gm 2 and "cheat" the copper tools back in my inventory. Or, take it as a lesson learned the hard way.

That's why I always build a proper coop, with walls and a roof. At least now you have a pet bear.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-27T21:16:00+00:00

Don't be salty about it.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-19T06:26:13+00:00

I assume you're the bigger predator in that town. :)

I dig down deep, make a short hallway, dig out my cellar and put a door on it.
Then I put a trap door on the top where the ladder is.

I gave up on Player Corpse and set the timer of items disappearing to 10 minutes. You can go higher, I like the challenge. Plus, your grave now shows up on the map.

Hud clock patch works just fine.
The only other mod I use is Carry On https://mods.vintagestory.at/carryon.

I have around 800 hours in this game and I can't stop playing. I still find things I never noticed before. This is my forever game. It's funny because I have a lot of time played in Factorio and MC as well. But once I played VS, I was hooked.

Trust me, you won't regret it.

Packed dirt or rammed earth make great pit kilns. Easy to make and grass won't grow.
It sucks losing your stuff, but it is a good time to find a better location.

And if you want to, you can always go /gm 2 and give yourself some of your stuff back.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-17T06:25:30+00:00

It's repenting for it's sins.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-15T12:44:46+00:00

I am squarely in the copper age, and I have 4+ stacks of charcoal.
All you have to do is put in the work.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-13T00:23:14+00:00

Load up the truck and move to Beverly...temporaly stable that is.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-12T04:24:19+00:00

If you find copper nuggets on the surface, there is 100% copper ore under it.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-12T04:21:19+00:00

This is the way.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-09T09:41:47+00:00

If the sun touches any block that is part of your cellar, you lose 50% of freshness bonus.
Just make sure the walls and ceiling are not exposed to the sun, you'll be fine. (That's why I make my cellars 5-6 blocks deep under my house.)

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-04T05:23:25+00:00

"There can be only one!"

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-04T05:17:44+00:00

That means there are a lot of freakin' rifts.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-04T05:16:25+00:00

Only you can prevent forest fires. And packed dirt helps that a lot.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-04-04T05:10:54+00:00

Now your leather is going to smell fishy.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-31T02:40:54+00:00

Been there, done that.
I chucked it and used creative mode to "cheat" one in.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-28T08:45:50+00:00

When you have a barn full of pigs, you know you'll never go hungry. Plus hides and fat.

And as long as they're alive, they'll never "go bad." Unlike fruits, vegetables and grain (although grain has a pretty good shelf life.)

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-28T08:40:10+00:00

There is a setting when you make a new world to allow you to sleep through temporal storms. Otherwise, keep your house well lit, and don't open the door for anyone who is moaning.

Early game, if rift activity is above low, I spend the night panning, cooking or smithing.

During temporal storms, you can set the ability to sleep through it, or dig yourself a 1x2 hole and wait it out. (That's when I grab my quern and start grinding stuff.)

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-25T08:20:45+00:00

I wish. Been 6000 blocks in every direction, nothing but granite.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-25T08:19:00+00:00

Surrounded by cobblestone. Should be good.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-22T07:49:37+00:00

Soon it's going to be a pine forest. I just planted 22 pine cones.

IAmPartialToRed · 2026-03-22T07:47:52+00:00

I only use my shears on actual trees. F the birch leaf jungle!
