How comes most of the players use a client that isn't the original and the h&h team hasn't developed a decent one yet?
How comes it is acepted to use it even when it destroys some original features like the maps and makes impossible to use the original one and progress in the game?

Thanks in advance and excuse me if im repeating topics, couldn't find anything similarin the forums,

Everyone uses it because it gives you a competitive edge, such as a larger screen, the ability to turn off darkness and other difficulty features, and run scripts.
The Devs are not actively developing and the moment and even when they were, developing the UI was not a top priority for them. From how updates were rolling it seemed like they wanted to balance combat, villages, and siege more immediately.
It's acceptable because the devs have said it is acceptable and have released the client source openly.

You can still use the old client and progress, it's just harder. People have and will continue to do so. You'll never be a primary raiding faction with the old clients though.

What if you build a minehole in the top left corner of the world. Enter it and exit it again. Would you spawn outside the world border? ;O
Hope you have a great day

Can someone help me understand barterstand mechanics?

~~~~where to build and the consequences of that~~~~
If I put a barterstand on a the vclaim, can other village members [use the stand normally | steal from the stand | destroy the stand] without scents?
If I put a barterstand on my pclaim, do I need to give people tresspassing rights to use the stand normally?
If its on a pclaim and I give people theft rights, does that mean they can also steal from my stand without scents?

~~~~ownership~~~~
if someone buys all items in my stand it will be empty, yes?
can they claim ownership of my stand at this point?
is there a way to protect against the stand changing to a different owner?

~~~~listing things~~~~
I have had a stand once before (someone destroyed it) so I know I can only sell 1 item at a time
I cannot trade 2 leather for your 5 bars of iron =/ it has to be 1 leather for 25 nuggets instead (for example)
so my question is... does anyone have a method to get around this limitation? or - how do people usually handle it?
are there any items that cannot be listed for sale or price? I heard a rumor there is. Does anyone know all of them?
