I don't know if some of these are intended or not but there is 2 tricks i've found out on my own.
1: Stamina regen, when you drink you notice how there is that counter that counts down? well, it can store up to 20 above your cap, which then is used slowly as its needed, however what you may not know is for as long as that counter stays there, you gain the stamina regen bonus from drinking till its gone, which can last upwards of 3-5 minutes per boiled water, its only 1 more stamina per tick regen but it makes a bigger difference than you think. Any water over that 20 overflow cap though is used at 1 per second till it hits 20. Same trick works for food too, it can store 20 over cap, but there is no real benefit to it compared to water.
2: Infinite water, this trick has been around for a while, to do it all you need is a stone shovel and a bucket, and a initial water source. You dig a 5 block wide, 1 deep trench, then take the bucket of water and dump it in the middle of the ditch, wait a few seconds, now pick up the water you just placed at the end of it, you'll notice some stays behind, now move a block over or 2, and place the water from the bucket again, Viola filled ditch, (Might need a 3rd pick up and drop). Store the bucket in a storage chest near the ditch, when you fill water jars, just take the bucket out, pickup the water left in the ditch and just replace it to refill it. Boom infinite drinking water for 7 forged iron and some stones and wood. Only issue you may have doing this is finding a initial water source to use the bucket on once.
3: Food, Dysentery is not that big of a problem in A19, it causes periodic food/water (mostly water) loss, and will go away on its own once it counts down, drinking goldenrod tea makes it go away a tad faster, and the food/water drains gets reduced (I think). If your struggling eat those sham sandwhiches, its a 12% chance of dysentery, and after eating 10+ of those sandwhiches I finally managed to catch it. You can also use a vitamin right before, it makes you immune to disease for 10 mins. Early game vitamins are like gold, as they let you eat pretty much anything for 10 minutes, though it is a bit more risky now that some foods cause health damage when eaten, like animal fat and the sham sandwhiches.
4: Quest often: I cannot stress this enough, when you start a quest your given a fresh poi to loot, even if you don't double loot it (Loot it before quest then use quest ! to reset it), you earn dukes, a nice chunk of exp, and loot, and it gives you something to do. I never double dip on poi's myself so thats up to you. Only way I do is if I happen to get a quest for a poi I already quested at, which with the random nature of the quests sometimes happens. Only poi's I loot without a quest are the ones that never get them, like some stores. Only downside to questing is sometimes you have to run 1 km+ to the quest, which before a vehicle really kinda sucks.
You got any tips to add? I am also curious if #1 is intended by the devs or if it was a oversight.
