A DST island survival challenge for players with over 100 hours experience (over 25 if you like pausing to read the Wiki).
Intended for Single-Player - you'll have to adjust if you do it with friends.
World Generation
World Size: Small. The world sizes affect the space between things, so less rowing.
Start
On spawn, enter the following at the console before gathering any resources or exploring:
c_gonext("moon_fissure_plugged")
That will transport you to Hermit Island (where Pearl lives). Then enter:
c_give("glommerfuel", 20) c_give("dug_grass", 7) c_give("spoiled_fish", 7) c_give("hammer", 1) c_give("silk", 4) c_give("mole", 5) c_give("goldenshovel", 1) c_give("oceanfishingrod", 1) c_give("rope", 10) c_give("torch", 2) c_give("backpack", 1)
That's your starting resources. Here's the challenge:
Rules
- Don't set foot on the mainland (or caves) after your initial spawn and `c_gonext`. If something from the mainland jumps onto your boat (a spider or pig), you're free to kill it and take the loot!
-
If you aren't Wilson, and you want to complete the Hermit Home, give yourself a marble bean and 2 beefalo wool after you've left the island.
c_give("marblebean", 1) c_give("beefalowool", 2)
Sacrifice something appropriate in exchange, like 6 stone for the bean and 12 wood for the wool.
Goals
- Leave Hermit Island (by boat)
- Upgrade Hermit Home from Stage 1 to 2 (Wilson can get to the final stage)
- Grow an Above-Average Tree Trunk touching Hermit Island.
- Bring a glass cutter to Hermit Island
- Build a dock out from Hermit Island (one square is enough)
-
Post your success (or amusing failures) to this thread with:
- Two screenshots: One of your character on Hermit Island showing how far you got, the other of the world map.
-
Your character choice, day counter, and world seed
ThePlayer.components.talker:Say(tostring(TheWorld.meta.seed))
(if it's not visible in the screenshots) - Describe any outstanding successes or failures.
- Suggestions for challenge improvement.
- Have fun! Pick one goal, or do them all! A very advanced (and patient) player may be able to kill a Malbatross, or possibly even Crab King with Pearl's Pearl? That's' not the fun part for me, so I didn't try for that, though Malbatross was tempting.
