PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

[Laz Man]

Great videos Lazman and Mech lens! I can't wait to get into later game again. I finally got a bicycle on day 10 I think so now I can scout for a base location.

Thanks MM, I'm planning on incorporating dart traps for my day 21 BM horde, should be epic. Excellent....*Mr. Burns Impersonation*

we have a shotgun messiah factory, oil refinery, had crack a book headquarters, and a shamway distribution center. Are we going to get a Working Stiff Tools version of this in a poi?

that would be cool! but i also hope they update the stores!!

Thanks waster, hopefully it helps you with some of your playthroughs.

Should Volume 5 of "The Art of Mining" be renamed to "You can craft resources into bundles"? since you can bundle not just Ore but Wood.

It needs to say "something more useful", but I ran out of ideas so it ended up in the game for now. There is no point in crafting ore bundles unless we could sell them for a larger profit, I mean who runs out of storage space for ore with the generous stack sizes we have?

Mining perk book ideas anyone to replace the craft ore bundles thing?

Originally I wanted it to be like ammo bundles but then gazz pointed out the scrapping exploit.

i just find a place and build it up! uses whatever i got around it and add on to it example. i live in one of the old houses in diresvill and i uses the second floor as a trap room but i built on the rooftop and made some sheds up on top for crafting/ forging etc

I'm too picky I build my own base. About the only building I'd consider is eric's stuff or lathan hardware, regular houses are bs and too big and hard to defend. Plus I get a ton of xp going from flagstone to r concrete and build right near the trader or on some epic mountain view.

Idea;

No Pure Ore: Have a chance to gain a small amount of other ores when mining a vein.

If you make them be a different material, like Morganic, they cannot be scrapped, so no exploit?

Instead of crafting pallets, every ore block you break has a (very small) chance of producing valuable nuggets (silver, gold, diamond). Say about 1% of every ore block you break now additionally grants about ~500-1000 dukes worth of nuggets. It would provide a small financial bonus when mining.

Alternatively, ore pallets could smelt in the forge in half the time overall compared to the loose materials.

You have hit your idea quota for this century, please wait until 2100 for your next submission. Just kidding. They are for storage space, which isn't needed, I'd like to replace that book with something else.

Bigly Mining

Which is?

 

[AtomicUs5000]

i live in diersville and i builded a mine under one of the houses!
and i found some much lead idk what to do with it! no iron , no coal, no nitrate JUST LEAD!

i have some much lead i could make a radioactive proof base!

Lol! Yeah, there is too much lead in the game, in general, whether it’s Navezgane or random gen. It’s been like that for a long time. It would be nice if it could be used as alternative junk turret ammo, maybe requiring twice as much as iron.

Not bad, kind of like the sparkle book which I love.

 

[madmole]

Yes they can (after opened). Here is the issue. Player crafts bundle at 80% the price. Opens bundle, gets 100% resources, smelt/recraft for endless resources.

DAMN! took my idea! lol

but i got a few!

Tunneler bomb: this bomb looks like a gas jug and its full of gunpowder and other combustible items. much like TNT you place it like a block and you got a 10 sec timer. and lets just say its great more making massive Holes or caves in the ground!

mix ore: sometimes when mining you will find "Fused Ore" and if you use a cement mixer you can get random ores from it for iron to gems.

Fast travel: able to make mine carts!

(ILL have a few more ideas later)

Suggested name for the perk that allows create big mining bundles stacks instead of Art of Mining

Oh but I want to delete that book with something better, there is no point in bundling ore unless we screwed players over and made the stack sizes tiny.
