Escaped Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I just spent all of the autumn going through this world, and I think it's nice but I don't know if it's good enough to start working the whole thing over. It has a maxwell statue in a nice place of land, easy beefalo, a trio of walrus camps, and plenty of savanah but I'm concerned if the rocks and the birch forests are ok to work with. Can I have your opinion on it? Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/66590-is-this-a-good-world-for-a-mega-base/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
emerphish Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 If you want a mega base, set world gen settings just right until you have a circular-ish world that you can customize. Land loop always, branch never seems to work pretty well With both set to the minimum, you get a straight line. At the bottom you see the effect of lots of branching Sorry that the command text is still on screen, I can't seem to get it off the screen without closing the game.

If you can't take out the text you always do CTRL + L, or you can change the key to another one in the controls menu. And for the mega base, you can always do as Emerphish said and you can also make the world big so you can have space for any project/ farm that you want to do! Remember to jump worlds at least 2-3 times before you make your megabase so you can have some non-renewable resources like the guardian's horm, thelecutie(spelling FTW!), gems, gears, etc. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/66590-is-this-a-good-world-for-a-mega-base/#findComment-756588 Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenb33 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Ok, In advance let me say, please forgive my ignorance - I am a little confused, if on those settings the world appears as one landmass in a line, Its not so easy to get from A to B as you have to walk all the way from one end to the other. Say for instance that your tooth traps are in the savannah, but you are in the process of mining the rocks when a big old hound attach hits. I am sure I am missing something, can someone please explain the overall benefit of this type of world gen?

I can't make the decision for you, I was just giving you all the options.

queenb33 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 awww and there I was thinking you would come up with some amazing bit of insight to the best world that I could not fathom! I have to say that I find that option more of a grind, however - horses for courses, I am sure there are many that prefer it... I just rocked up with this world for Wiggers (im pretty sure I used world gen default settings), never played her before but am loving the layout of this world, have not explored it all yet, but again (like OP) three walrus camps! Great area where I was initially spawned so set up base camp there, Have identified 3 of the 4 items so can world hop but want to bunk down here for a while as everything is pretty much to hand. OP, Personally I like that world, other than the lack of rocks, however, you can make do pretty easily with that amount, plus there are the caves - if someone ends up settling there is always going to come a point where you are out of rocks/minerals and the caves is the place to go. As for birch woods... the less the better IMO... hate those birch tree guards!

Can I have your opinion on it? The only thing I don't find interesting in this world gen is the pig village location. I guess I'm just used to see first the birchnut forest and then the village, inside of it. But well, this is just my taste. I think you can do a pretty good base taking all the other birchnut forest (the one without pig king) and some space to the left where the bee hives are. The rock supply in the upper world is fine too. If you live enough to see it gone, you have 3 caves + ruins to explore. And in the little savannah, left corner, I would make (if there's no beefalos there - too much trouble moving them) that ol' big pinecone tree farm-forest And you could use that little rock land in the upper left for boss battles too (like bearger).

Escaped Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Also, I planned on renewing things like caves and thulecite by linking to Shipwrecked. I'm planning on getting lots of items and cobblestone from worldhopping in Shipwrecked and keeping my world constant. Non-renewable resources are easy with shipwrecked, especially gears.
