Oh, godammit!

easy fix, have two fields, space them out by a day.

Changes to crop growth times simply mean you have to use more space

I just recently started growing wheat, from one seed onwards.

Now getting a useful field will take weeks, instead of A week.

Still, dammit, I'll never get those hives up.

doesnt seem like it will really take that long for fields to grow so far

And run into another couple of them. Yeah riiiiite.
You get lucky if they won`t stun you in one go.
I`m used to bears, they are not nearly as numerous, and easily visible, also I do not remember bears aggroing when I can`t even see them on screen.
Sadly, these changes killed most of the appeal of the game for me..

Seriously... Please put hunger back to the way it was, AND THINK THROUGH YOUR ACTIONS BEFORE YOU DO THEM.

Neither the 1/2 crop speed, nor the 1/10 hunger speed help gameplay in any way. How the fuck is anyone, at all, ever going to gain stats with this retarded set up? Hand plow for an hour, drinking a barrel of Q10 water to get your hunger down?

Tell me this... How is -anyone- supposed to start up the game and have any chance at being... Well, anyone? Cant hunt, because its impossible to get the stats required... Cant farm, because you gotta get enough per/exp to find the seeds (which now is impossible to find the good ones(Sodom had to fucking trade for wheat/pumpkins, even though there were 20+people gathering www for 2+ weeks))... Cant get a mine, because well... You cant get enough PER to see RR (not to mention nearly all mines have been found by now, AGAIN)

How far is your head up your ass to actually implement this shit?

Obviously some of that is good, and should have been put in months ago... The rest should have been automatically thrown in the trash bin where shit ideas are meant to be.

Growing wheat before you can make a hive is slow as molasses, I think.

Copying keys with bronze still don't work. Was it no restart, or did I understand wrong?

Fence gates have some serious collision issues. Cattle keep getting stuck on them if they're not perfectly aligned, seriously it's like parallel parking an 18 wheeler. Please fix this, because cattle pens are pretty much the only use for fence gates.
