Game Development: Milling Time

Awesome on the windmill just wish it was kingdom restricted. Maybe next time.

Why the fuck would a windmill be kingdom restricted. That doesnt make sense.

Loving the windmill and excited about the shelf! Yay!
Thanks!

There is now an informal weight system which allows us to specify weights on carried objects, and, thus, you may now carry lighter things -- pots, and whatnot -- at significantly increased speeds. A net result of this is that most things are, quite simply, a lot easier to carry.

Nice!

Just have to wait for Romovs now ...

Woah. Windmill? That looks as big (or slightly smaller) than a Stone Tower.

Almost.

Slightly smaller (base) and around 2/3 as tall.



PS: I say 2/3 because I'm considering what seems to be the "usable" area, that roof area is (in theory) the windmill mechanism and should not be accessible.

I see what you did there

you can clearly see 2 duckies on the grass and 3 on the metal pavement, 2 * 3 = 6
pizzagate illuminati confirmed!

Doesnt look like floating coords to me.
Using default client.

By the way, as the FP test-server thread indicated, floating-point positioning technically allows for pixel-perfect placement of carried/built objects, but in practice I found this mostly annoying since it made it impossible to align objects properly. Therefore, when Ctrl-placing objects, the client will by default lock positions to eighths of a tile. This is adjustable, though, by way of a new :placegrid console command that will set how many positions to lock placement to. I've found :placegrid 2 to be fairly useful in common situations. Also, :placegrid 0 turns of locking entirely to allow for arbitrary placement of objects.

Jorb & Loftar, if it's not asking much, could we please have a simple image showing the application of VM in the Windmill?
What goes where?

Stone and cloth seem very use to assume, but I'm uncertain about the blocks and boards.

This is an educated guess (and possibly wrong! take note before trying it out )

Stone and cloth is as in your image, but there are only two wood materials. The hazel (darker) one comes from the blocks, and the birch (lighter) one comes from the boards.
