Onetel21 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Woodie: Hello Mr. Pig, i will now feed you since my ability allows me to make you follow me for twice as long as other characters! Pig: YOU IS FRIEND *36 seconds later , dusk comes* *pig disappears* Is it just me? I keep losing my pigs when dusk comes. Hell they even refuse to come by the fire and/or sleep on the ground. They just start running around screaming for help and i end up losing their attenction after dusk comes..! I used to be able to bring them to my base and use them as a sanity-boost while they were sleeping , i used to give them football helmets to never lose them.. and yet since a few game updates they just disappear once dusk comes. Am i doing something wrong? EDIT: apparently the fatties are willing to follow me if i turn my lantern/torch on... And somebody said taming a beefalo was hard..

GentlemanFridge Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Even though they technically have no reason to be, pigs are scared to death of darkness, and will only follow you if you have a light. This can result in a pig being very, VERY interested in Abigail at dusk. Pigs shouldn't despawn at all. Your pigs dissapearing is likely a result of then panicking at dusk. Them losing their hats happens because they run out of durability when worn, even by pigs and rabbits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainChaotica Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 WHERE IS SUN?!! Also they seem to think Abigail is a fire. : P Me, the last time I had pigs follow me reliably for a while was when I was playing as Unnerfed Willow, and just turned on my infinite lighter all night--and dusk, the big wusses. ...Notorious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lighter durability is simply stupid, in the first 20 minutes of gameplay a player can craft himself a lantern, which has a much better light-radius than the lighter, and is "infinite" as well. The ligher should be infinite on DST and only usable (like lucy) by Willow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainChaotica Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Yeah. "Only infinite when used by Willow" is the way that would make the most sense to me, and in fact many mods make it that way. The radius is tiny and pathetic, so at least let it last a long time, hmm? ...Notorious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absimiliard Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Isn't the lighter more about not needing a fire to cook over than the tiny light radius for free? I mean, it's not like a torch is a meaningful build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooked vegetables (which you find by exploring) last a lot less than their non-cooked variants Cooking monster meat isn't needed since you are Willow anyways Cooking normal Meat and morsels .. meh. If the lighter took 0% durability from cooking it would be a little bit more useful. i don't understand why i should waste 1 inventory space to bring with me something to cook. 2 if you count Bernie.

absimiliard Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Oh, the inventory space is probably a designed-in cost. Wes's balloons are almost certainly there to make him harder to play -- their value is nominal at the very best and the cost of an inventory slot ..... Well, it makes my main a challenge, let's just say that. I never thought of Bernie or the lighter as a cost, but your point about them taking two slots is absolutely correct -- they are clearly a cost. (As for myself, I cook food before eating it if it's practical -- cooked veggies give more health than raw, and cooked greencaps or cactus fruit are a big deal for sanity-management some games.)

CaptainChaotica Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Their bacon of hope... : P Reminds me--one time, I had three pigs following along behind me in the summer. One of them was named Bacon, and GUESS who caught on fire. "NO! DON'T COOK MY BACON! wait..." XD I'm so mean. Actually he was okay, which always mystifies me. But yes, Bacon got cooked. Heh. ...Notorious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway piggies are pretty brave normally, I mean they see a huge furry giant that literally makes trees and structures explode, and without any doubt charge unarmored to berserk punch him.

But as soon as it gets a little dark: "NOOO!" To be fair, we all were like that when we started playing Don't Starve. "Oh i can totally kite that thing, but it's already getting a bit dark, so i think i should make a campfire and make sure it's completely fueled so i don't die " In fact, sometimes i like to think of pigs as representations of newbie players. Eat random food off the ground, attack dangerous enemies and are terrified of the dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
