great i'll keep trying then ...
do dropped items only despawn when the map unloads? or do they follow their own timer ?

Both, if I'm not mistaken. They will eventually decay on their own over time but the map despawning will also force them to decay.

thanks for all the answers more or less out of questions now

Do wells require to be on a source to produce water? Or is that just to get higher ql water?

Could I for instance build one anywhere without divining and get water from it?

Nope, you need to be on top of a water deposit. The water's quality will be directly related to the quality of the water on that tile so if there is a node nearby it will be affected.

Damn, okay, and thanks for the quick reply.

just tamed my first aurochs (huzzah! luvyall for the many guides, helped a lot!)

Does the quality of the cows/bulls lower from LQ fodder? or is it only during growth (i.e. only calves) dat fodder influences quality?

The same goes for chickens: I bought a breeding pair of HQ chickens from a trader, but I've only got mediocre fodder. Will the pair lower in quality? or will only newborn chicks be influenced?

Thx!

edit:
also, is there a way to empty a trough? I quickly filled it with some apples since I didn't have any fodder around, but now it's Q10 (which I will want to improve over time). Or do I just add new HQ to balance it out?

[TeckXKnight]

The animals will lower in quality based on the food that they consume. You cannot empty a trough except into other troughs, as far as I know. Just make a new one and trash the low quality one.

[Doness]

yup that's what I ended up doing. seems strange the chicken coop has an empty button, but troughs don't. Oh well.
on a sidenote, I got lucky and got a bull+cow from two tamed aurochs. yay me! (RNG took pity in my pearl streak :p)

Are there still bugs involving using cliffs as walls? I know of the chair one (you take a chair and depending on how you dismount from it you can glitch over the cliff facing) and the HF one (where you have one HearthFire and spam a bunch of HF's 'till you wind up with one on the other side of the cliff).

Have either of those been fixed?
