Suggestions and Bug Reports

[Tammy Redda]

My partner and I have been loving the game so far. Our joint save currently has 27 (real life) hours of play time in multiplayer (2p) on PC (Steam)

Suggestions/ Feedback

Building

• There are no Cornered Peaked Roofs 
  • The only peaked roofs are straight; therefore, when trying to make a non-rectangular home, if I want to use the Peaked Roof, I have to have either a gap or use the domed roof top to cover the corner
    • It could also be fixed by giving additional quarter roof options
• I would love for an expanded range to be able to access storage
  • When building larger structures, I often go out of range of my storage chests/ pallets
    • Suggested Fixes:
      • A mutation that allows players to pull from chests/pallets when further away
      • Storage Bin/ Pallet Upgrades that allow players to access them from a further range
• Paints!
  • Would love to use flowers, berries, buggy bits, etc., to be able to create paints and colors to update walls and furniture in my home
• Placement Settings
  • Snap Grid
    • Would love to be able to toggle snap grid (I thought there was a way, but I cannot find it when placing flooring/walls)
    • It would be nice to be able to edit units for snap grid (amount moved - amount rotated - esp allowing 45 degree rotation)
  • Roll
    • Being allowed to adjust the roll on placed objects would help when objects are placed on uneven or suspectedly uneven surfaces
      • IE - foundation can be curved at corners, which causes items to sit askew on the edge, rather than being able to sit flat
  • Vertical Placement 
    • Often, when I try to use the vertical placement lower or raise a building piece, I am unable to (unsure if this is due to snap grid or something else), but it happens even when there are no other objects nearby, and I can freely rotate it

Buggies

• While on the Buggie, it is not possible to gather anything outside of the level 1 cutting tool.
  • This causes an issue when getting off my buggie and gathering.
    • The buggie gets closer to me - When this happens, it interrupts my gathering and causes me to mount my buggie

Exploration

• I wish that when showing filters on the map (map view - acorns, etc.), there was a way to make those show up as icons in the world HUD
• I was unaware that I could turn off Trail, Backpack, and Build Markers, and accidentally pressed [Y] on the keyboard instead of [T] (when summoning my buggie)
  • I went a few hours following my partner around because I thought my map markers were bugged
  • I then realized there was a way to toggle the markers. When doing so, there is a HUD notification that the markers were shifted off/ on
    • Potential Solves:
      • Add an SFX to make it more obvious that the markers are being toggled
      • Move the button further from frequently used buttons
      • Add a setting in the menu that can toggle it back on (much like the PoV button)

Other

• Thank you for adding the backpack recovery - the backpack fell through the world, and we were able to use that to retrieve it

Bug Report

Building

• Plants still grow in the house (grass, sprigs, etc)
  • This occurs on the joined player (client) and not the host
  • Can collect sprigs, but cannot do anything about grass blades or other cuttable items, as they do not appear on the host's game

Buggies

• Falling off the buggie when dropping off a height at full health sometimes causes the player to instantly go down - it has been frustrating

Exploration

• Spiderwebs can be difficult to get off of
  • It is very difficult to get off the spiderwebs onto a low ledge - at the table in the snack bar area, if you fall onto the web, it is nearly impossible to get back up
• Inventory
  • My dandelion tufts don't show on the HUD after I gather them - usually they become usable upon a death/respawn (joining in a multiplayer game)
• Map/ Markers - World HUD and Map
  • Sometimes the host cannot see the map markers for the other players - in the overworld and in map view (hosting in a multiplayer game)
    • Tried restarting the host and client - unable to solve over multiple play sessions
  • When placing waypoints on the map (near the tree at the park entrance), they often get caught on the tree canopy, so I cannot see where to go

Enemies

• Legs on the Wolf Spider are cursed
  • They bow up weirdly and stretch in odd ways

Other

• Auto Save appeared on screen, but was not saving
  • Lost ~3 hours of progress
