Keeping it the way it was is not a good option. Vaults will rise up again then and even if your camp is still accesible from other sides, others won't be.
Why don't you just rearrange your settings? By the picture it looks like you could just build into another direction.

I don't really mean to bitch and moan about a palisade, but I really can't just quit my claim and abandon the gads of LP I used and get palisade/other development materials all over again.

Re: Game Development: Leeching Dry
Even without this change you would have to redo your layout sooner or later, probably sooner. Palisades will be obsolete when raiders are strong enough to bash them down, and you don't have any space to build a brickwall without tearing down either the house or the palisade.endiron wrote:North from the cornerpost is within that threshold as is east.burgingham wrote:Keeping it the way it was is not a good option.

I don't really have the free time nor game hours to get what I had built set up again like I once did.

Re: Game Development: Leeching Dry
I don't disagree that eventually someone would have bashed my palisade but it's frustrating that it happened pre-emptively in a somewhat hidden bullet point of an update and that I didn't have any idea that the change was coming until I found out one login that I can't build.spectacle wrote:Even without this change you would have to redo your layout sooner or later, probably sooner.

@Jorb, didn't notice if anyone else commented, but thanks much for putting the camera controls on the arrow keys. Makes it much better for playing on a laptop. Great update - thanks!

Re: Game Development: Leeching Dry
Great job on the updates !
Love how the game is turning out to be and can't stop playing.
Bats and Badgers make it so much more interesting (maybe should increase the distance of bat spawn away from cave enterenc).
Hafen and all the new super interesting stuff you have added will make this so much more popular.
Wanned to know if the time I can get without paying has a maximum cap and if yes the is Verified accounts max time cap bigger ?
Also are there any plans to change the pricing or the hours on the store ?
I'm all for but verified account but i'm not sure is it worth it for 15$ as I can get a month for 10$.

Re: Game Development: Leeching Dry
Yeah, I realize that, and I am terribly sorry. We should have considered this particular one even before release.endiron wrote:I don't disagree that eventually someone would have bashed my palisade but it's frustrating that it happened pre-emptively in a somewhat hidden bullet point of an update and that I didn't have any idea that the change was coming until I found out one login that I can't build.

Curious when playtime-refill operation is executed. I`m under 7h threshold for last 3 days, desperately waiting for new payment options or refill

Re: Game Development: Leeching Dry
Thanks for the update btw jorb. It feels kind of... I dunno self serving when an update contains things you argued in support of and being all "Great jerb jorb!". Don't wanna seem conceited, but I appreciate the work you guys do.
