Deal with Midge Swarm at Base camp

Postby Kikuta » Sat Oct 28, 2023 3:36 pm

Hi

It would be nice to have something to dont let this mob to go inside your base camp. It is annoying at some point, even can kill you if you are AFK.

I suggest introduce a new plant: Lemongrass/Citronella. Where i life it´s very common to make them go away. It could have like an area of effect like mine pilars. So you can put them around your base camp and dosen´t let midge swarm go trought. Would be good they have no effect at swamp terrain.

Thanks for your work and time. Sorry for my bad english.

A citronella candle type thing for your base could be a really fun idea. New plant, some wax. Bam. Candle.

It would be a great use for Candleberry.

Midges only eat a certain amount before they are full, and then move on. They aren't gonna kill you, just... eat a bit of your juicy innards.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy
