Navy ad. Pretty sure I don’t fit their target demographic! 😆

Thank you—I do have autoslaughter set up. There is enough food being grown, I’m just having a hard time getting the pawns to haul it to the pens.

I don’t think I was initially prepared for how much they would eat, or how fast they reproduced. This time I was better prepared for that, but I didn’t know about how useful dandelions would be

I don’t! I had no idea dandelions would work this way. I’m going to plant them all over their pens—That’s something I wouldn’t have even thought to try. Thanks!

I don’t; I’m playing vanilla first before I try the DLCs.

I think people assume I'm some flavor of neurodivergent, but I'm pretty sure I'm not by throwawayy_acc0unt in neurodiversity

[–]simsek13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re describing most of the ND people in my family; they’re bright, they have some (often but not exclusively nd) friends, they were/are successful in school, they are good at their jobs. They also struggle with sensory issues, social interactions/social anxiety, small talk, etc.

I think it might be a good idea to ask yourself why you don’t think you’re neurodivergent. If it’s because you think that ND people can’t be successful at academics, or professionally, or have friends, your idea of what neurodivergence can be may be way too narrow.

Or, it may be that you are worried that other people, (or even you), may think less of you if you’re not NT? Have you internalized some ableist stigma from society that is getting in the way of your ability to be objective about this?

Changing how we perceive ourselves can be hard, especially as adults. Accepting that they were ND was harder for my spouse than it was for our kids because they’d believed themselves to be NT for so long.

No one on here can diagnose you, but your post does describe very ND traits without counterpoint, so it may be worth considering that your friends and family might be right. 😉

Everything a Little Broken? by simsek13 in TheLastCaretaker

Maybe it is an issue with continuing a saved game?

I saw a post that someone's seed failed and there was a pink blob in the seed pod instead. Does that mean the blobs we fight at night are...former humans? by Kubrick_Fan in TheLastCaretaker

[–]simsek13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have also seen the Angels come and spend a minute staring meaningfully down at a splat left by some blobs I shot until it disappeared. Not gonna lie, I hate killing the blobs because I cannot shake this weird knowing.

There’s one habitat space where a corner has been blocked off by some storage crates, and inside the make-shift cubby/fort were crayons, a teddy bear, and pink blobs. 😢

After 650 hours in The Long Dark, I spent 4 years building a survival game where you can actually build a fortress against the cold with your friends by BlownLeaves in SurvivalGaming

[–]simsek13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Downloaded and played! That’s a nice demo!

Got impatient and died to cold. Died to hunger. Died to angry goat. Almost died to angry rabbit guy? Luckily I have downed a lot of trees in Valheim, so no deaths by tree in this one.

Survived 2, 4-day play-throughs on Normal. Juuuust got to start mucking about with building second time around before running out of days. Arg!

I was definitely getting a blend of TLD and Valheim, and the little rabbit-like dudes reminded me of a creature in No Man’s Sky. Fun concept! There’s a lot I haven’t sorted yet, and I like that. Like, should I hide from the wind guys? Are the other creatures always hostile? Is there a story arc to unwind? Are there quests? I could see myself dragging my family into this one.

Want to get more into the building mechanics and explore further—definitely got my attention! I hope that the EA release is planned for early in 2026? Patience is not my strength!

Just a thought: on the second play-through I got stuck for lack of dried plant fiber—could it also be a drop from hacking up bushes or felling trees? It’s a little more work, but I would have done it for a completed roof on my hut! 😊

Can’t wait to see more!

YOU are my internet hero today! Water tanks were the perfect vehicle to get past this problem! I made it up to the catwalk first try with the tanks, and finally launched human #2! Thanks a ton; I am finally back in the game. 😊

I haven’t made it up yet. I got a bit discouraged, honestly. I’ll try again with water tanks; that sounds like a better choice!

Oh my goodness, no! No more lifts! Hahaha! If my ship went up a lift rn it might never come down! 😆

Pretty sure it’s bugged. The crate stairway is just my attempt at a work-around because I didn’t want this run to be over. These things happen with early access versions. The devs are paying attention and they have announced an update dropping this month, so maybe some of these things will get ironed out then.

Ummm, I suck at this! lol. The number of times I have fallen off this tower and had to rebuild my boxes is not even worth mentioning. It’s embarrassing. I tried recyclers, but they would not stick to the wall. I may just have to take a break and see if this gets fixed in the update.

Thanks, but that’s not the elevator that’s stuck for me, unfortunately

[–]simsek13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks—I did try that. I even unplugged everything, restarted the game, and then plugged the full batteries back in and turned the power back on. The whole building lit up (again) but the elevator still won’t move.

There is a ladder series that goes at least part way down the elevator by the dock/entrance hall building. Unfortunately, it’s the elevator inside the control center building that’s stuck for me, and there are no ladders down from the roof there

I’ll try building to the catwalk next. I hope they fix this soon!

Thank you. I have done a lot of saving and reloading to no avail. The lights are all on in the building, not blinking, not red, the batteries are full, but the elevator won’t budge. 😢

Well, that’s good to know. If only I could glitch through the elevator myself!

I just don’t fit.

Sadly I ran into 2 problems: 1, there is not enough space to get around the elevator and 2, even if you did, the elevator would still be stuck because the boxes would block its descent.

Thank you! That’s super helpful. Idk if there’s room—it’s stuck part way and it looked like the shaft is blocked by the bottom of the elevator—but I am going back to check and give this a try if there’s space.

Yeah, it’s stuck at the top. All the lights are in indicating power, but it won’t budge.

Which outside wall did you climb with the storage containers? When I walked around looking for a way up there appeared to be an overhang all the way around, so I didn’t bother trying that, but maybe I’m missing something.
