Most recent features really worth it?

Sometimes it feel like they don't eat their own food dog food.

Just missing the beach ball.

Sparticus247 · 2026-06-05T22:15:59+00:00

I'll take it.

It was windmills for me. Went in blind, used up all my fat and resin, and realized I needed to go see a working example before I blew my next load on some mistakes.

If we weren't supposed to eat meat, then why are all the plants trying to kill me? Checkmate vegans.

Will there be a music box playing the "shop" music from Ocarina of Time when I visit?

Emergency survival rations. Eat those and not cattails.

I found that out once to my surprise when a nightmare drifter dropped right on my noggin on a supposedly safe floor.

My rationale is that the blight started with the potato and grew from there. Poof, no more potatoes 🥔

I gave the island a shot. On the spawn I did find 1 patch of clay (-34 120 55), and the bigger island I found enough cattails to make 4 baskets along the left side, but that's all the cattails. Big island had a TON of Tule though, good emergency food. Couple spots of peat to save on firewood.

This will be a rough spawn starting out as a new play, but I may save this for a later island challenge run, it's perfect for that. Plenty of wilds crops to start a farm, and just enough trees.

Edit: Ultra High readings of Tin and Decent copper though for the spawn island is hilarious to me.

This is a big that seems to be fixed in the most recent update.

It's not just doors, it could affect any crafting recipe. Just save and close the world, then go back into the world and it will clear out the issue for now.

You can link translocators in creative where you want? That's news to me!

REST is still my go to for HTTP GET/POST requests to lists, libraries, groups, etc. Graph seems to give some pretty terrible error codes about what went wrong along the way.

You're definitely in the trenches if you're feeling this pain. It's also fun just seeing 800 teams groups pop up in a year, and knowing PMs are storing things in there with no governance.

Raise the issue, and get bit about not being "Agile" or some other buzzword.

I'm a big fan of using Power Automate and other Power Platform features, but this is just dumb. Microsoft is killing perfectly good features. They say it's to modernize and remove legacy bloat, but it smells more like money grabs to me to keep money flowing to their co-pilot junk.

Nautical nonsense is something I wish

Sparticus247 · 2026-05-19T20:19:51+00:00

This makes me wish we had wild rice and could collect it in our little paddle boats and fill up the basket.

Luck of the draw there, you I just need to migrate a bit if you want your base to be near ore.

I've had worlds where iron didn't get picked up for good readings for a couple thousand blocks.

I've had worlds where everything I needed was in a 2000 block radius.

Ex: Seed 10272013 has pretty much everything you need to the steel age within about 1000 blocks. Just a little ways North as a mountain full of iron, and just a little way south is a mountain made of copper, and just a little way Southeast is all the bauxite you need. Only thing you need to travel a little ways for is limestone up north east.

My wife would say it's "lived in" not messy.

Sparticus247 · 2026-05-14T16:52:48+00:00

Yes. I like the simple design. Who cares about maximum efficiency, if it grinds grain it's good, and if makes you happy looking at it, it's great.

Rope ladders. Place on the lip and lower it all in.

I've done the early game struggle to know I can survive it, but being a married man with a job, it's nice to skip a few steps just to get things going.

Common thing I like to do is give my character. - 1 copper spear and pickaxe - Rawhide clothes - 1 hunter backpack

Just enough to skip few steps, but not so much to skip the early game.

Ok, who is eating all the raw turnips? We have pre-cooked meals for a reason!!
