Wait was that the last restart when the bug thing happened???

Oh, that was just an internal thing. You won't see a shadow of a pixel of it ingame. :)

HURRAY, it is indeed working and fishing just got a whole lot better. It seems to only work with lures but that not too bad considering how quickly bait fishing already is.

You fall asleep while fishing...
Does that mean no progression towards beliefs then. Kinda cool though to take a boat into the river start fishing and have your guy fall alseep while doing so. Also noticed that it would be a good way to get LP for a grind. At 36LP a hit or so, and getting it maybe twice every 5 minutes or so. If you make it so that you drop the fish you catch you could leave it on all day and get a fuck load of LP without losing any Hunger or stamina or anything, sure nothing towards Belief but against LP thats a big MEH...

You know, I really do like the idea of falling asleep while fishing. If the LP is really a problem, then just make it so that you don't gain LP while AFK, but I'm pretty sure there are worse balance issues.
Surprise.

You failed to consider the break part.

The fact that beliefs are only counted towards when not AFK is a big problem, actually, and I'd like to abolish it; I'm just not entirely sure just how (it may actually be reasonable to simply ignore AFK-ness, I dunno).

AFK was originally intended only as a way to indicate to others that you are, in fact, AFK. So that they don't try to speak to you in vain or so. That it was incorporated into game mechanics is just bad.
