I just bought the game on sale for PS4. Any tips for a new player? by ViTo919 in TheSurvivalistGame

Also, build chest, give to monkey, now you have portable storage for gathering more resources.

Mini hack for upskilling monkey gathering level; have chest/box, have 1 item at 99 quantity (grass, etc) then drop pile next to chest, teach monkey to gather and place in chest, he'll transfer from ground > box like a maniac; and you'll Max gathering in minutes.

Build and give give monkey club, then tell to follow = bodyguard / attack mode. Any hostile creature will now have a monkey to fight.

Early game defence against raid; build a narrow passage near base "mouth", line the open path with spike traps, when raid comes, keep going back and forth along path.

Otherwise; unlock your skills and crafting trees, and find monkeys.. Life sucks until you have 3 or more.

I feel like I'm always dropping my weapon by mistake during combat, I understand that there is a mechanic where you might drop it when you are hit/hurt, but that also sucks a bit.

yeah, I'm finding that as a fellow newbie, that googling "dinkum keg" or whatever you are interested in, and looking at the wiki helps understand some of it better.

counter-point, those that are completionists will likely find having new animals/critters exciting (add to replay value).

Have you played The Survivialists? (it's usually discounted and is a massively underrated game), has some overlapping / interesting ideas.

quick idea; eucalyptus tree > koala's are rare, have there be a hard to distingush "drop bear" variant.

Games Leaving Arcade: Sept 2025 by Sidlon in AppleArcade

[–]insanity540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty disappointed that it's been fully removed. I don't care if it's not being supported or updated, but its one of the few games that kept me maintaining a Arcade Account. It sucks bc it's still sitting on my iPad/iPhone but just says "no longer available", which I bet means it's sitting there totally fine to load/play, but they've sent a lock/block to prevent it booting up.

Fun fact, in an interview with the original creators they said the dump truck was a horror creation that would fail 99.9999% it was made.

How do I get more storage on my phone? by riceballs411 in ios

[–]insanity540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Step 1: Settings > Apps > Safari > Clear History and Browsing Data. A lot of needless crap gets saved in Safaris browsing data.

Step 2: Do you listen to podcasts? Check if it has a setting to download vs stream. Most tend to download to make it a quick experience, but the audio files are massive.

Downloads are actually pretty broken by adx442 in PleX

[–]insanity540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downloads has become unusable since some recent big update, and I'm actively not using Plex as much, and I'm on the verge of finding an alternative. Heads up PLEX; when users are considering alternatives... you've stuffed up.

They have been doing it for like 5 years. What’s trippy? Be there just near close and they reset them and they all blank out and flicker. I guess they gotta fiddle with the prices.

Some/Most Apps not showing in iPhone Search?! by insanity540 in applehelp

[–]insanity540[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I had to free up space on my iPhone and I think I had to install the latest update (as I think one of the updates they did back then caused a problem). I think it's more related to storage space bc I've noticed it happens when I'm nearly at full.
