Alrighty, I guess I'll try my best! Thanks for the advice.

Before you start typing, YES. I know how to USE the ProPick. The task at hand, for me, is finding out where to start prospecting if there are no scattered ores on the surface to give me an idea of location. So how in the world am I supposed to find all these important ores and minerals underground--even with the ProPick--if I have no idea where they are? For example, when you find ores floating about on the ground, you can dig down at that point and start prospecting and you're likely to find your motherlode. But how am I supposed to find ore without looking around on the surface? Help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried feeding two cows (a buck and a female) some wheat grains. But the cow kept telepathically telling me the same thing: "The animal won't let you do that." It's freaky and weird! Anyways, I can't get an animal farm going because of this! EDIT: I'm not crazy. I'm joking, BTW This is a serious question though!

Don't build a wall out of your corn. I'll give you a cookie if you got that reference.

Thank you. I'll think of that from now on

I second this. Although I usually don't use the chisel POINT BLANK because of this. heheh.

Pit kilns are great.

YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! I went on a huge excursion in my SSP world and came back with about 360oz of rye, and 320 of rice. I dont wanna make em into bread yet. So i am putting them in a granary barrel outside to be cooled at night. Yet, this does nothing. I have way too much flour/grains!

The first is Self-explanatory of course Just find fallen branches of trees or long rocks and...Voila! As of now in TFC all you need to do to make a sword is just to make the shape of the blade and fix it to a handle. Now this would be great as a blunting object, so you could keep it like that. Sounds great! You get a baseball bat! So what if you had a grindstone or sharpened it on an anvil / tempered it? Discuss? I know this would add an un-necessary difficulty. As you will prob have no way to sharpen in early Neolithic times. So you will be left with your baseball bat to fend off the skellingtons!! Also with knives/axes i suppose, although stone is already sharp because of chipped thin edges.

It's bad

sounds like a challenge

Anyone?

inb4 bat guano and ebola seriously good idea though. i would like this

So I've been thinking. One of the most awesome blocks in this game? Obsidian. It's so badass. Pour a bucket of water over a pool of lava and you're watching two forces collide, the heat and destructiveness of lava, and the cool, extinguishing liquid that has kept us as humans alive for millions of years. When their fight is over and water over all else has dominated, you're left with a practically indestructible block of godly goodness. So while I was caught up fantasizing about obsidian I thought about something... Haven't ancient tribe settlements been using actual real obsidian as knives and arrowheads for a while? I thought a bit more, and I realized that, for quite some time, Minecraft modders have been actually putting this in to the game for a while too! Not yet in TFC though. I thought EVEN MORE, and I thought of something... something AMAZING. Most people would probably just think of using raw blocks of obsidian or "obsidian ingots" and compressing them in to tools and armor, right? Well... wouldn't that be impossible to use? Think about how long it takes to mine obsidian. It must be pretty beefy and hard.tl;dr skip here My idea: What if you melted down obsidian and a bunch of other metals in a superblast furnace or something awesome,to make a workable metal-like substance that could be worked in to armor and tools? Wouldn't that just be so sweet? This is gonna be an endgame/creative thing btw. It might be kind of expensive. And of course obsidian arrow-heads and knives So if the whole obsidian-metal thing doesn't work out, you can just luckily find little obsidian shards lying near volcanic areas, and use it in the knapping interface

Age: 12 Location: U.S. Why do you like to play TFC? -- I love the realism and challenge it adds, it's really fun for me to fool around with making metals, baking bread, panning for gold, ETC., as opposed to the "slap some rocks in to an oven to get some shiny iron bars" technique. Why do you want to join? -- You probably wouldn't be very surprised how lonely it gets in SSP after a while. What will you add to the server? -- A lot of idiocy. I'm just a... just a really cool guy, I'm not lying, my mommy thinks so too. Oh and you know, building and stuff, I could start a general store/trading post or something. Hope to join in soon. :*
