PC If the Pimps are going to remove heat form the fire

Can they at least update the descriptions that reference "cold? get around a campfire!" ... because it's just plain misinformation to any newer players. And irksome to a older hand such as myself, who is constantly reminded that building a fire does jack s**t for fending off the cold.

Campfire description and the loading screen are the two places I am aware of.

 
I admit that I set myself on fire trying to find that "Sweet spot" for warmth while trying to fight off "Freezing". :highly_amused:

Let's hope that the Left hand catches up to the Right hand and these things can get fixed.

 
Are you "holding a torch"? :flame:

Hey...am I dreaming this, or was there a time when you could build a campfire in a small, enclosed structure, and you'd get a more efficient heat radius than if you were just outside?

There's going to be a new perk that let's you make use of the heat from fires. It increases effectiveness with each level and is available starting at level 20.

:applouse:

That is... until you get the perk - fire you will not warm? :D :D :D

 
Haven't heard of anything like that, but are you sure they didn't mean removing fire heat for the heatmap and not the actual heat? :p

 
Yes, to hell with it - we are waiting for the really interesting features! :D

for example a perk that will allow you to loot or run to reach a certain level :) .....or ....or a perk that will allow you to harvest ....so many wonderful game mechanics can still come up! :D

(come on, I'm leaving... :) )

No, wait a minute! :D

I came up with - it is necessary to remove all the other biomes - they still do not need anyone!

 
Hold up. The campfire does not provide heat anymore? Is that why I am constantly freezing in the winter biome even though I am next to a campfire?

My pal and i just built our base in a snow biome and it looks like the campfire does not provide heat. I'm not sure if it got reduced or removed altogether or a bug. I tested my temp by standing right next to it and then about 7 blocks away and there was no change in temp.

 
Lol why tf do they keep removing stuff from the game ? i really hope this is a bug tho

- "because it's not interesting to anyone" (RR) MM :)

(the truth is, i've heard that it's just not working yet due to the fact that he did not finish, it's not forever.... may be ;) )

Pretty sure, the actual heat from the campfire is more of a reduced radius where you essentially have to be right up to it. Unless, you'd like it back to the A16.4 days where you could be in an enclosed room with a campfire and essentially raise your temp to basicially overheating status?

I tested it yesterday. I stood one block away from the campfire and the temperature didn't change. The same with the forge and the chemistry station.

 
The problem is that it now gives you a certain amount to cold insulation. You still have to have clothes on. Torches work the same way now.

Indoors temps are fully segregated from outdoor temps. If you are naked, then you need to be in a shelter and a certain distance away from all outside doors and windows to be considered "indoors". A campfire is unlikely to help in that situation now. It also will not overheat you in your crafting room while you have a forge or a campfire running like it used too. Though I think most of us just stood in a puddle of water to get around that.

Im just gonna say something we all want to say, TFP went Perk Crazy! They perked everything.

If what you say is true, and I have no clue if it is or not, then i believe TFP have lost their minds.

Like, as if IRL youd need to learn to "harness" the heat of a campfire and as if IRL a new born baby couldn't sit next to a fire and be like "wahhhh, thats hot af, move me female dog, im a baby and can't move!"

 
It's a bug. The forge and and the campfire should have a warming AOE.

Thank god its a bug. But it IS kind of confusing to us normal players not in the constant forum usage loop.

We can't tell if its a bug or not because its not listed on the "known issues" of either 17 17.1 or 17.2's notes.

Actually a newborn baby couldn't sit next to a fire and say those things. Newborn babies lack the core strength to sit upright and they lack the knowledge to vocalize their thoughts into words. That baby would flop over onto its back or stomach before simply crying. That baby definitely would need to purchase a few perks before being able to do as you described.

Also Jeraal was joking...
