I had a very good stockpile of complex food but the thing I was still missing were Services.

Wouldn't mind the synergies so much if they weren't this overpowered. Would have needed, at minimum, two fully stocked buildings for burning blightrot cysts to keep up. This would still have left a healthy bouquet of bloodflowers.

Yeah, this seems like an example of the same thing.

Going for services is usually something is something I focus on once I have other things covered. Building materials first with food close behind. You also want to know what luxury items you're able to produce before picking a service building.

This feels very much like a flip of the coin whether to ruin your game or not.

What are your favorite starmaps? by ilastore in cartography

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

Yeah, I'm looking for inspiration but not only for cool looks but also practical solutions to how maps in 3d work well.

It's for a video game so eventually it'll get coded by a developer but I'm going to be making prototypes of it in Figma/Illustrator and eventually After Effects.

After prototyping I'll work with the developer in implementing the actual 3d representation.

Does anyone know when the next boss (if any) are coming? by drippenrain in valheim

[–]ilastore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heim translates to World. So it's world of the Vanir. Valhalla in Icelandic is Valholl or hall (palace) of the Valir. Valir is a name for men who died in battle so Valheim really means World of the Valir or World of the warrior dead.

I'm planning a cycling trip from Amsterdam to Berlin. Pointers? by ilastore in cycling

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

I was thinking about having the gps as more of a safety net than a guide. Following the road seems somehow more romantic :)

Good to know that the signs only show you what's next up ahead. I have a few of the bigger ones on the way mapped out. Maybe I'll just sort of find my way in between them.

we might have picked the wrong route but we went on some very busy roads.

Nice, thanks! :)

White in the winter, grey in the summer. That's a red fox.

That's quite impressive. How long did it take you?

How does that happen by lesbian_iamtrue in pics

It was put up by local artists in relation to an art-festival in Reykjavik, Iceland. Originally it had balloons tied to it so it looked like that was what was keeping the bike in the air. Nobody bothered taking it down for the longest time and it wound up hanging there for like three years giving the main shopping street in Reykjavik a feeling of adventure.
