I've only seen a few when I was on my 2hr journey from the spawn point to a quiet place to settle down.

Is it possible to spawn more rocks in the world, or are future newbies doomed to a stoneless barren wasteland? where they cannot even make a stone axe to bash own brains in due to rock deficiency induced psychosis

I've heard someone say they do, but I don't really believe it personally.
Neither, considering you can carry them around.

Perhaps, but not easy.

Rocks from the sky, suddenly a hearthling sees an odd shadow as it comes hurtling onto the ground from up above. If you dont move out of the way you die to a rock from the sky.... realy past the possable death thing, it would be a fun way to add more rocks, also could add a random sorce of iron to. Plus walking over and finding a crater with a rock in the middle would be fun.

Allow us to carve trunks, carpentry need instead of stoneworking, same look and interface as runestones, with just the wood texture.

I thinks its time we have people spawn in random areas and not in the same place so we can use all the resources instead of just one.

How area new players going to be able to make their initial stone axe? Maybe if we could collect low Q rocks from shallow water?

possible rock forageable? like in slaem. just a single chip of random rock, visible with like, stoneworking and base expl * per, not super common or anything, just a way for there to still be some infinite source of stone for starter stoneaxes.

Probably not a terrible idea.
