Totally awesome. This is yet another reason why CATA:DDA remains one of my all-time favourite games… 😃

Hi Rivet, just a little heads-up in case you aren’t watching the bug thread closely.

I have spotted a tiny typo in your acorn description, which is detailed in my ‘dedicated’ typo thread there…

Have fun! 😉

Great adiction, no more lonely poppy flowers 😃

It would be pretty cool to have a lot of different trees and plants and to be able to make all sorts of medicine with them, we can even have a building called florist in cities with such plants.

This gives off a very Unreal world vibe…I like it. OH, how about fishing nets. Sorry just a Unreal world flashback lol.

I’m curious why pine tea takes 10 times longer to make than boiled water. It makes it hard to justify the time.

You gotta boil the heck out of it. It’s healthier than clean water as well.

Hey, sorry to necro, but this thread looks to be the place to ask, since my concerns are specifically to do with the woodcraft material. Just started playing cataclysm after a break of a few months, and while this stuff looks awesome, I find that the apparent nerfs to foraging make it almost impossible to find anything of worth. Are the drops shifted according to season? Most of my starts have been LMOE winter starts, which might be affecting it, but wanted to check here first. I noticed that I find useless rubbish an overwhelming majority of the time as opposed to delicious nuts, idk.

Yes at least some foraging is tied to season, so the winter start might have something to do with it.

Foraging underbrush will only find trash in Winter. Winter start is completely the culprit.

Thanks guys. Guess I’ll just have to wait a few more days before getting my forage on.
