Simply have the game updated and log into the game with the update installed to get the item.

Console

We need to get the console version updated with fixes from to beta version so we expect this update to be available for console early next week. Of course, everything is taking a little extra time right now, so it may take longer than we think, but we'll post if we find out there has been a significant change in timing.  

Final Note

On to the next thing! Now is a good time to mention that we are currently in the middle of evaluating our schedule. We're definitely beginning to see issues creep in from our current situation working from home. We're looking to shift things around a bit so we can still have something for you every month but the next update will likely be smaller as we work on the larger stuff like the next new character and the next Return of Them update. When we have more information on that, we'll let you know. 


Update #406355 Notes:

  • The Crabby Hermit and Crabking are retrofitted into existing world.
  • The player can now board boats while mounted.
  • The player can now board boats while lifting a heavy object.
  • The distance you can jump to embark and disembark has been adjusted and is now based on how fast your character is moving.
  • Irreplaceable inventory items no longer slip out of your inventory when drowning in the ocean
  • Creatures that follow you onto a boat will now wash ashore (instead of die) when the boats sinks
  • Changed the ingredients required to craft the Tackle Receptacle.
  • Boat Patch also repairs boat damage
  • Added Clean Sweeper for changing item skins.

Looking to Main Wortox

$
0

Hello everyone!

I rarely create my own thread's on these forums but I thought I'd try my luck and make one to answer a few questions I had about playing Wortox. A little background here, I've been playing the game for around 3-4 years, I have 1k plus hours, blah blah blah. Tl;Dr I know my stuff. Getting back to the question, I've went through playing almost every character, but as of the last year or two I've been maining Wolfgang, purely because of the potential to solo bosses, rush ruins, and overall destroy the game. After the Wortox dlc dropped, I attempted to play him a little bit but was put off by how much cooking I found myself doing early game, pig racism, and the inability to rush ruins. Since then I've gone back to Wolfgang. Assuming that I already have tons of game knowledge, I was wondering if any Wortox players had some tips or tricks pertaining to efficiently playing him. What would a ruins rush with Wortox look like? Are boss fights and the preparation for them dramatically different? (less focus on food / healing because of soul hopping) Are there certain bosses I can rush faster than Wolfgang because of soul invincibility? What would endgame farms or gear look like for Wortox? (As in, should I be keeping killer bee hives for a soul farm) Are their any other quirks that make Wortox a great character to play? Any and all input will be welcome, I'd love to have a discussion about Wortox and the strategy involved in efficiently playing this character.

Climatic and Natural Influences on the Ocean

$

One of the things that have not yet been implemented in RoT was natural external factors of the ocean or climate interacting with the boats and players. What natural mechanisms would adapt well to DST boats? In my previous post I got into the waves topic, but obviously the boats from Don't Starve Together are not made for that system. Thinking about it and talking to friends we talked about other ways that would fit well. Natural ocean obstacles or weather that could be used for or against the player.

Ocean currents:
Paths randomly defined by the sea where it has a flow of water in one direction. That if in favor of the boat, it would influence its path and speed, and against, would slow down the speed and path of the boat.

Winds

The mechanics of the winds. That would be implemented globally around the world, where it would have interactions with most seasons. But the main focus would be events at sea. It would have great influence on the boats sails . (Helping or Making It Difficult). 

Lightning storms and rough seas. 
This event would be implemented during some season (Spring Maybe?). In this event the sea would not be susceptible to navigation. Where winds would be common (which would harm or favor players), lightning, peaceful sea creatures hiding and aggressive mobs popping up. 

Excess Hounds Teeth

Does anybody else have the issue of having too much hound's teeth? I feel like for the amount of hounds you are forced into facing, there's really not a lot you can do with them. Of course there's tooth traps, but there's only so many you need for a panic corner - and for those that might just fight hounds head-on or use a middle man to take them out (like Beefalo or a Bearger) they're stuck with a whole lot of teeth.

As for what to do with all these teeth, I think it's as simple as have new recipes using teeth. (Obviously implementing new items into the game isn't that simple, I know.) A new weapon using teeth, kind of like a shark tooth club or maybe a flail.Or another idea would be to use teeth as a crafting material, maybe able to be refined into a calcium powder to heal you, or maybe something that has uses to be explored within the unraveling of Return of Them.

Do you guys have any other ideas for using hound's teeth? Is this a problem you guys find yourselves dealing with, too? Or is it just me?

So I'm doing a Lights out challenge as Wilson, any advice?

Hello everyone! So to make this short, I previously did a lights out game with Wendy eventually up until I killed Deerclops, and I had a lot of fun doing it especially with the  Rework! I wanna try one out with Wilson, except eventually in the series I want to build out and attempt to base somewhere in the surface world, one idea I had was basing on the lunar island due to it having the lunar fissions giving a free source of light,  only problem is that there's a lot of things to think about, such as no birds spawning(to start a farm with, if crops even grow in a night only world...) and a huge amount of other mechanics so, what would be a good plan for a lights out world with Wilson, I'm not the best, at doing these challenges, (especially boss or ruin raids.) But hopefully I'm lucky!

Alternate Hermit Quest: Cruelty.

I was thinking about the quest for Pearl, the crabby hermit. You do a bunch of nice things for her and she gives you a pearl, and you give it to the Crab King, who does not accept Pearl's gift and has been too corrupted by the "Moon," and he becomes extra powerful, cracking the pearl upon death. But I was thinking, What if you went the Cruel route? There could be an alternate quest where you do horrible things to Pearl: You throw her messages into the fire, you burn down the trees, destroy the bee box and kill the bees, destroy the drying racks, planting lureplants, putting extra clutter in her water, and blowing up her house with gunpowder. After doing all of these things, you gain the option to kill Pearl. Not "Attack" but "Kill." Upon death, she would drop the cracked pearl. You can then bring that to the Crab King, but this time, he will be angry that you killed his lover. He will become "Misery Crab King," and will have Seven times the benefits from the gems, and will have a new attack that damages the player AND the boats. Upon death, he drops a different celestial tribute that has its own unique recipes.

Hey all,

We hope you've been enjoying the Return of Them: She Sells Sea Shells update. There's been lots of great feedback, which is always a nice reminder that you care as much as we do. Thank you all for joining in and nominating your favorite scenes for Willow's short, From the Ashes. The leading nomination swung back and forth a few times throughout the week. I wasn't sure which was going to end up winning!

In case you missed how this works, we’ll post a thread for one of the animated shorts with a link to YouTube, and you can nominate your favorite scene by posting a screenshot. Cast your vote by giving one or more of the nominated scenes an emoji response. After a week we'll tally up the results and add a Vignette based on the winning scene into a future build of the game.

Try to avoid nominating a similar scene to one that's already been posted. We'll remove nominations if we feel they are too similar to an existing nomination or the Vignette we already made, or in the case of shenanigans ;)


The next short is Wormwood's short, Lunar Roots. I have a suspicion for which scene the community is going to choose.

Ocean fishing chart!

$

0

So! Ive been enjoying a lot of the ocean fishing Klei has added to the game. But I was having trouble finding all the fish and catching them because I didnt know where to look or what was the right lure to use...
So I decided to make this handy ocean fishing chart!
Made to show the attractiveness each fish has to all types of lures and what parts of the ocean to find them in!
Now Updated to include beta fish! Please keep in mind that it is still beta content and may become outdated. I will update this chart if that happens!

Lure Attraction guide
Idle attraction:
       The base attraction for the lure. The higher the attraction, the more likely fish will bite it.
Reel Bonus:
       The bonus attraction gained when the lure moves, either from the boat moving or the player reeling in.
       Most crafted lures will gain a bonus. But food lures will lose attraction, making fish bite them less when the lure moves.
Lure Radius:
       The range that fish will be able to see the lure and be attracted to it.
Range Bonus:
        Gives bonus range while casting the fishing rod. Letting you cast further than normal.
Lure Attraction per fish:
         Each fish has a lure attraction multiplier for each lure. If a fish has a 25% attraction to a lure,
         that means its base attraction is multiplied by 0.25. And if the fish has 150% attraction to a lure,
         that means its base attraction is multiplied by 1.5

Note, i tried to make the image larger to combat compression and to increase resolution. But because of this, this chart is getting to be quite large data wise, so the full resolution may not be available to slower or older computers

 

Show Off Your Boats!

Building a high tech boat can sometimes be difficult. And because of this, some people can be quite proud of the boats they have made!
So I decided to make this thread so people can post screenshots of their own boats for the world to see!

It can really be any boat! One's you live on, one's only for moving large amounts of items, or ones you used just to make it to lunar island!


I'll start with my boat here!

Comes equipped with everything you need to survive. A crock pot, fire... and a lightning rod!
With a few chests for storage of tools and food as well.

Earmuffs should become craftable with no Science Machine

$
0
0

Straw Hat became craftable from the start when RoG was added to DST.

In my opinion, the same should be applied to Earmuffs.

 

Reasons:

- It's a bad item you never go for if you already have a Science Machine. Why lock it in the same tier as Winter/Beefalo Hat?

- I play early game 90% of the time in DST. I have joined servers in Winter countless times.

9/10 times you will not have any gold left to craft a Science Machine, because people on the server have already hoarded everything.

In that case you have to either:

1. Search for Pig King.

OR

2.  Craft a piece of grass armor and rush searching for MacTusk (and pray that others did not already kill him before you got there).

Also, pray for good RNG, because MacTusk doesn't always drop his hat.

- Earmuffs give you a couple additional seconds before freezing to death again. This means less trees burnt (the only way to survive Winter with no cold-resistant items), and if someone joins after you they will have a higher chance of survival (because you did not burn every tree on his way).

 

What are your thoughts on this?

Should this be a thing?

 

Maybe there is some broken cheese mechanic I do not know about that lets you skip the entire game and beat all bosses by Earmuffs becoming craftable with no Science Machine.


A request (The clean sweeper)

Hi Klei, any way to change the recipe for the Clean Sweeper? Old Wilderness worlds are difficult to find Evil Flowers. Been trying to make bees pollinate them with no success so far, not even sure if that is possible. Only have 5 total flowers in my world making the new item inaccessible to me for now.

Also tips on how to get more Evil Flowers without the use of haunting from ghosts are super appreciated.

Troubleshooting: Cannot Receive Twitch Drops?

$
0
0

Hello everyone, I cannot guarantee these methods would fix the issues for you but I'm making this thread in hopes of collating all the possibilities of why players cannot claim their Twitch Drops. So first and fore most, let's double check that we have all the necessary checkboxes cleared that SHOULD allow us to receive our drops.

NECESSARY INFORMATION

Klei Support Article: How to link your Twitch Account to your Klei Account

DEV(s) recent input on the matter:

If you have already properly connected your Twitch Account to your Klei Account before, here's how to make sure you've linked them correctly.

Below is the image of what your https://accounts.klei.com/account/info should show, if properly connected:

832689705_KLEILINKEDTWITCH.thumb.png.fd0d71715497b78757552e0392d50fe6.png

Clicking the Twitch Account Number should directly bring you to your Twitch Account's setting. Then below is the image of your Connections and under OTHER CONNECTIONS should reflect Klei Entertainment:

464514241_KLEITWITCHCONNECTIONSETTINGS.thumb.png.5362102b2202ea77c08615522349d1af.png

Also if you've accumulated enough watch times Twitch Notifications should reflect new drops, example below:

twitchdrp.png.14c7ed4b61e326c70e050472044e9d95.png

Drops are received the same way we all received our Daily Drops, upon first login of the day as soon as we enter the Main Menu of DST (after pressing Play and properly logged in).

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you've made sure of these things and you still haven't received your Twitch Drops, then follow the links below:

Make sure to double check for every method mentioned in these Klei Support Articles. If you still aren't able to receive your drops by opening DST then go to Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogether and attach the client_log.txt file from there to your reply to this thread. 

DO NOT COPY PASTE its contents to a reply. Simply DRAG-DROP the whole file from that folder into the edit box when you make a reply to this thread.

Hopefully we can figure out what's going wrong together for any outliers on this issue.

@LeeEverett @annakinsolo @Merakses_CK @BeeboxD @akli72 @vladys611 @fractalmytholog @itspoakie @darees @Radpon @vexx32 @rFreon @GootsGaming @LastOfSaviors @PacManiacDK @AiurRefugee @sharckgx @Weeber07 @Tzucaak @akzakz @dragonmaky @Kavthekid @YeetusDelitus @dho8 @sovon9 @Pkpoon @Pumpkin Soda @Seb89 @Filip Svoboda @GoldenOkami94 @TheAleksDemon

Hopefully everyone who needs this information finds it. I've @mentioned as many people as I could find that are having issues with Twitch Drops.

I hope it helps, cheers.

UPDATE (April 27, 2020):

New update for the Klei servers has been deployed and any discrepancies has been retroactively applied to affected accounts cause by unintended side effects by a previous Klei server update. Refer to the dev replies in this thread for more info. Unless outliers come up, everything should be back in order for everyone.

Thank you devs for the updates on the matter and just as importantly thank everyone for your cooperation and patience on the matter.

Cheers.

Items that litter.

Once your world is like 200 days old there's always a lot of items that are just littering the ground. And worst of all there's pretty much no easy way to get rid of them.

Said items are:

-Rot- from various sources mostly seeds

-Poop- usually from your beefalo or random koalefant

-Twigs- if your world has twiggy trees

-Rotten eggs and black feathers- pengull nests

I think Klei should add cleaning mobs for those items. These mobs should be made simmilary to moleworms. As in it's easy to get them across the entire map and they're not an annoyance. 

This would probably help with late game lag caused by many items on the ground. It'd also be another example of flora and fauna interactions so another benefit.

Mod please read this

I want to delete all my posts, since I realized a lot of them are false (this one included). However, I do not think it is possible for me to delete them myself, so this is why I would like a mod to do it for me. If I am wrong about the fact I cannot delete my posts please correct me. I want to remove all the crap and only have good posts from now on.
