Re: Please Ask Simple Questions Here
Okay, so I caught a male silkmoth. But I've read that I can't keep it in my inventory or any container too long or it'll die. I could use the river trick to reset its timer, but if I go too far away from it, it despawns. Is it just a matter of luck of finding a female silkmoth while having the male silkmoth in my inventory or close by somehow? I don't see how anyone could start up a silk business from scratch, without needing to trade for silkworm eggs or some insane luck.

It is just a matter of luck, yes. There is no secret trick to finding the correctly gendered other silk moth, you just have to keep running around until you can nab another and it happens to be female.

Considering it take a silkmoth 24 in-game-hours (that's 8 real time hours) to mate or die, its more a case of a some determination then insane luck.
(I don't think the timer on silkmoth's can be reset, but even if it can its not really worth the trouble.)

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Nowadays you can scavenge silk moth eggs from abandoned settlements pretty easily.Daigerus wrote:Okay, so I caught a male silkmoth.

Re: Please Ask Simple Questions Here
So I was in my boat and saw gray clay went to pick it up and after the time was done the gray clay disappeared it wasn't in my inventory or anywhere and no there was no splash sound, (you know when you drop something in the water). So what happened? Can forage-able objects can just disappear if they are not picked up for a long time? Or was it THE ALL MIGHTY GAME BUG?
