PC Look How Far We've Come

Nothing.  It would have no negative effects on the game like it does now.
Okay, this is likely me being a bit stupid about the meaning of 'collider'. I had thought that a collider was an invisible model of a block which defined the volume which could be hit by things (and filterable, as with iron bars' collider not affecting projectiles). If you swing and hit the volume defined by the collider then you hit the block and events unfold accordingly. In this case, the scraggly crap grass gets 'mowed' by my fist. In the case of potato sprouts the collider is roughly the size of Higashi Tower, so just swing anywhere in the vicinity and you'll destroy the plant.

If the grass has no collider, I thought that'd mean it's effectively immune from being hit. Like the branches and leaves of trees are. And that I'd not be able to mow the grass any more (except maybe by just digging up all the dirt and replacing it). Is that not true?

 
No you're right.  I just see it as a good thing.  Having no collider would also mean you have no reason to mow.  Unless you just do it for looks.  

 
just ignore me, just letting off unnecessary steam that has nothing to do with the post. Great video and nice to see how far the game has come.

again not hating... but this is again the perfect example of what i mean. Basic features like a somewhat storydriven thing doesnt exist... other survivors dont exist... animal farming doesnt and will never exist and so on

:D
A lot of depth is missing.
They added small features, but overall, it is still the same base game :D
The real excitement of maybe taming animals... of building a survivor outpost and so on... you know... the long term stuff... is still not in.

Looks, and so I can see those crawlers, and/or snakes.
Yes. I want a clear line of sight for 50 blocks in all directions around my base. Trees, boulders, grass - it all gets dealt with. Now, if they were to make a "mown grass" terrain block, I might even dig up the ground and place down some nice green grass. Maybe a shrubbery. One that looks nice, but not too expensive. And then I will cut down the mightiest tree on the map with...A HERRING!

I guess that will have to wait until the fishing enhancement.

/Ni!

 
i remember when it wasn't on steam. kickstarter days was fun. i remember first taken over a poi only to have a horde come through and destroy it all . lol i screamed. good times
