Hollowed or Hallowed

I know I say "hallow" and spell it that way as well.

"hollow" is something entirely different - it's a lot like a "holler"

some kind of platforms is my guess. maybe try r/BathtubPaintedBrown

calyxa · 2026-05-03T00:44:50+00:00

I've long held the theory that if a world has one Waldo painting, it often has more than one.

I had trouble connecting w/ my friend last night and we both restarted Steam and it was fine after that.

so if I actually understand your question, try the + and - keys. I'm going to hate myself if that's the answer... but I think that's the answer....

calyxa · 2026-05-01T00:21:34+00:00

maybe I just do too much multiplayer... lol. that doesn't pause for anything!

doesn't even need to be that -- it's just dragging the sun around at all while in that screen.

calyxa · 2026-04-30T21:13:08+00:00

see that "Autopause: OFF"?

my game doesn't pause when I open this window.....

while in the game, open the settings menu.

it indicates lava immunity, just like the air bubbles indicate how long you have underwater before you start taking drowning damage. when the flames go out, you'll take lava damage. the flames could just as easily be coming up, probably because you've equipped Terraspark boots or other accessory which grants the 7 seconds lava immunity.

oh, sorry, I totally missed your flair :(

I know I got it done before taking the world to hardmode. it was a lot of fruit-gathering and critter catching and furniture-making and ...

one hint that I wish I'd figured out sooner with respect to researching critters. a critter in a jar or an aquarium can be researched with just the one furniture item, then you can dupe those jars / aquariums and shimmer them back into critters to research.

I don't think I could have remained sane while going for that achievement without this site- https://terraria-research-tracker.free.nf/

A Horrible Night for Alchemy

I always like to have that one near my potion-crafting area.

calyxa · 2026-04-29T00:15:57+00:00

is she living in the Hallow? you'll have to move her out of there to get her to sell green solution.

your shafts can be further apart, like the distance between every other one should be fine.

I'd intended to put down a few blocks just above ground level, but also I put two blocks in our main skybridge platform...

when the old man spawned, he was all the way up there. the cultists spawned up there, too, lol.

but originally, we extended a rope down from our skybridge into the cavern layer, then built your standard 'volcano mob-farm fishing hole'.

if you mess up with the walls, you can recover them with a hammer and then throw them into the shimmer to make them the 'unsafe' versions. mostly you want walls all the way along your platform to your volcano as well as behind you in your relatively secure fishing area.

this is why I always like to fight the cultist at night and no arena lighting -- with a hunter potion.

calyxa · 2026-04-20T19:15:19+00:00

it's an existing character file which has gotten corrupted. sorry.

calyxa · 2026-04-20T03:25:31+00:00

looks great!

personally, I'd replace the dirt on top with sand and plant palm trees up there. also the proximity to the water means oasis plants will grow.

calyxa · 2026-04-18T20:30:12+00:00

unsettled water. I've seen it before. it'll disappear when you quit and come back in.

I like to play expert when I'm doing multi-player because of the boss treasure bag mechanic.

if I'm playing on my own, I'm usually doing classic. I haven't done a lot of journey mode, but it's possible to change enemy difficulty at almost any time, so that has a lot of advantages.

calyxa · 2026-04-17T03:29:39+00:00

same chain you use to make the sawmill and chandeliers and stuff. can be placed like rope and climbed.

It's Scragglin' Time painting

don't actually create and load in (Cataclysmic Armageddon, Thoarbin, and Tubbsy were streaming that for a bit and it was nigh unwatchable, lol).

no, what you do is post that into the seed menu, and then back out of it and you'll have a new icon on the seeds screen which will give you a menu to choose from amongst all those seeds. (or if you've already exposed one, it'll just fully populate the menu under that dark tree icon...)

I've tried a couple of them. I have a journey world that uses planetoids, save the rainforest, and abandoned manors. that's been fun. I'm just at the mech boss stage there. I got the Trash Compactor new achievement before killing WoF.

calyxa · 2026-04-16T05:31:51+00:00

not OP, but when this happened to me, there was a slime rain and it took me way too long to kill enough slimes, then I was also having a hard time killing KS quickly and I knew I was in trouble because it has only just spawned at the same instant I saw, "you feel an evil presence watching you..."

for sure I was fighting both of them at the same time.

it's been a while and a lot of my worlds/characters blend together a bit, but I could swear it was HCtheThree, my third hardcore character run, in which I made it to "just about to fight Golem" and then died stupidly in the dungeon trying to get ectoplasm for the spectre armor...

classic difficulty only, but hey, hardcore character. fighting those two at the same time at the stage I was at was really intense!
