Grand List of Simple Questions

Another question:

Does it matter which way the gate turns now? Where you place the lock? I had my character inside the claim, but clicked on the gate from outside - and then it looked different from the one I placed on the inside of the claim. I do not find the solution intuitive at all, and am a bit concerned I have made a huge error that will let people into my base.

It does matter. When you add a lock to a gate, the slave key will only open it from the "inside" (I believe this is always the side without any horizontal bars, not sure if it can be altered by which side you apply the lock from). This might mean that you need to use a master key to get out of your base, and if you ever die carrying that key then its goodbye to your base. Make a slave key copy of your master key, put your master key in a cupboard, and see which side it works from to be sure whether or not you've got it right.

If its wrong I would suggest breaking it down before it builds any more soak and redoing it.

Thanks, I just destroyed the gate and rebuild it - checking with a key from outside and figured that if I get the message "You need a master key to open" I am good to go. Thanks to the initial low soak I was able to.

Tea is still a thing. You get leaves and seeds when gathering from tea bushes. Tea bushes appear to be rare spawns in some grassland biomes, we discovered 3 in a heath. You need to dry your tea leaves on a herb table before you can use them. =)

I do wish these things were still seeds. Been spending valuable game time wandering all over looking for a tea bush. Valuable because time is precious. Then slowly realizing that I had no idea what I was looking for. Could a kind soul post a pic of this elusive tea bush?

Read later I had been looking in the wrong biome - these things spawn in the light yellow one? Think I might have one of those, a few hours away..

Thanks Simimi!

Now off to find myself a tea bush. Just need to put the kettle on first..

Btw - that bush looks like the one with fruit called Boxwood. Is it that one?

No, it's "tea leaves" and "seedpod" if I recall correctly. The seeds you get are "tea seedpods."

Questions on eating:

1. Do you get the symbel bonus by placing the food on the table and right-click eating it from there?
2. Will the bonus stack if I have multiple plates/glasses/forks or is it capped at 1 of each?

I haven't seen a reference to Wretched Gore before, but somewhere I've read that Cruel Incision can be cured via Gauze.
