Pretty much no limit.
Just don't go too far North for now as that's still being developed.
So how big is the underground? Thereโs gotta be enough space to get a lot of resources (I donโt own the game yet so donโt spoil certain things about the lore)
the game doesent have an underground really, when you see underground in the game then you are in dungeon
I'd recommend just playing it at this point.
Waiting for steam to give me my money ๐ญ
Usually that works the other way around.
Iโm receiving money from my steam wallet
To then buy from Kinguin
Cheaper on Kinguin than any other site
Yeah, there's probably a reason for that.
It's humid as hell here
And people should consider that hotter air can carry more moisture ๐
The "feels-like" temperature is the result of humidity
Currently half price on Humble: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/valheim
100% humidity at 20ยฐC is less humid than 50% at 40
What weather apps show is % relative humidity
How saturated the air is
I gotta wait 7 more days to receive my money. According to Steve from Steam Support

Its not minecraft, you dont have elytra with speedhacks to scan entire 10km circle
I donโt explore with an elytra in minecraft. I go on foot so I can make sure I uncover every pixel of every block lmao
Well you can't get an elytra without doing a whole lot of other stuff (in a casual natural playthrough)
Last year was my first time actually playing Minecraft from start to finish without guides
I knew nothing more than how to build and that an ender dragon exists
Took me many hours
I did ask for tiny hints from my friends though if I got stuck for hours
I hated getting the elyra because when I'm holding right click, s, and shift to not fall
My fingers get stuck and my brain needs to work extra hard to know which finger I need to let go of first
It's almost the same sensation as fear of heights
Ok.... so I deleted the entire EAC from my warthunder folder
Verified through steam
And it works again
Tbh
I clicked that launch button with the expectations it would freeze my computer again forcing me to restart
Morgen gjall.
Noon gjall ๐
@azure geode Maybe add some eyes to the protruding bones for the teethmorgen.
Mornin' gjall!
Coffee needed gjall! ๐ด
lots of people are waking up ๐
It is 5am here on the west coast, so it do be that time for plenty of us over in the states
Depends on your work schedule.
yeah, I'm EDT, so it's 8 now.
normally i'm waking up around 3ish, because yay for undiagnosed sleep disorders
Sorry to hear that bub. But you gotta do what you gotta do.
Yeah, I just gotta find a pcp that our insurance accepts, and then try and get a sleep study
fun stuff
I'm in a smaller one, but Portland OR is only about a 30 minute drive to the north, so it's not too far
my job is planning air conditioning for large buildings, among other things
trust me, i know
aye, it's death heat over here and humid as hell
I'm used to this but definitely don't want to deal with it
hell I used to run in this weather
well, at 40*C most before sundown
i aint going outside before sundown
Lol, vampires beware. Lol.
hiyaaa~
Howdy Officer
longish time no see, you've ya been?~
I ready for sleep now, will reply further when I wake up
oh
sleep well~
lying in bed and sleep mode has been initiated. T minus 2 minutes
what is the best way to transport large amounts of heavy material via cart?
keep hoe in hand and smooth the path in front of you ๐
what if it's a large hill and that is impossible?
you can go up most hills if you go in an angle
What if thats impractical
wdym?
Can you attack loxs to carts
it idea is to trasmport large amouts of ores from a ship dock up a decenly steep him
hill*
if you have loxes you might wanna consider to load your inventory and ride the lox
yeah we aint there yet. More just a thought
we ussaly have one on the back of the carts encumbered and the other one pulling it
but its impractical if one of us is away
that will work nicely, and you can even put more ore into the cart AND one of you to be on it
if you are alone the cart works just fine
well not if your trasnporting 8stacks of ore
only 8 stacks? thats still very practical
the main reason why we ask is becuase we want to find a cool way to do it in a oner.
either the throw-pick up method or cart
Like is there a way to make a ramp or smth. So far the hoe just flattens ground
hold shift while using a hoe and you can get very nice gradual slope

If there are more people on a server, would a boss gain more health then?
Bringing a big team with me that are new on valheim and we are planning to defeat Bonemass tonight
Yep, 30% per player within 100m. Up to 5 players.
From the Wiki: "Creature damage is further increased by 4% and effective health is further increased by 30% for each additional player within 100 meters. These are also applied to tamed creatures. This scaling caps at 5 players."
If they're new I wouldn't start them halfway through the game though.
sure
dw, we got to swamp together, one esp have become even better then i'd imagine, he soloed a dungeon in the swamp hehe
Bonemass is ok for newbies, as long as there's a knowledgeable 'raid leader' (edit: and voice comms).
But i respect bonemass even tho i've been and playd in Ashlands myself lol
Alr, yeah imma try to tell them to back up and dodge his puke/spit attack atleast
O and thanks for all the answers btw!!! ๐
๐ซก
Heโs really disadvantaged against more than one player, as one can just face tank him/ keep his attention while others deal with adds or just straight up middle button whale on him from behind.
Lawn mowing is no joke. I wonder what it'd be like to use a scythe to cut grass.
Did vikings ever do that or just leave grass where it grows until a new home needs to be built?
honestly Bonemass is a chump. You can keep strafing sideways to keep beside/behind him. When he finally decides to puke on you, just run out of the zone and hit him with a few arrows until he chases you.
"Effective health" note, the hp doesn't actually increase at all
is their a way to find people to play with just bought valheim today
game is good even in solo.
@astral mulch --> #1024264966712340510
what is currently most efficient way to get grausten? just mine with queen or`?
exploding fire blobs are a great way too
guys why me willybanch mod cant work?
#mods-issues may have answers. It's probably not been updated since the new patch.
do you know what texture pack can be used in new patch?
I don't know anything about mods, that's why I pointed you to the other channel.
Good morgen gjall.
Pretty much just walk around in the Ashlands.
is it possible to transfer saves? my friend want me to be host on the sever instead of me
instead of him*
probably?
Yeah, you just need to copy the fwl and db files across.
What game engine does Valheim run on, and is it available for public use?
I have a cool idea for a short game and think Valheim's engine, if publicly available, would make for the best choice to develop it on.
@ me or dm me if you have info
Itโs made with Unity, and anyone can use it
Unity version: 2022.3.17f1
Deer hunting starts in 2 hours
Gonna be interesting if I see a deer tomorrow morning...
Gonna collect them deer hide ๐
s there a brightness adj???
hi everyone! Just one question : who knows which admin handles valheim's marketing or sales department? i'd like to get in touch with them to be able to sell the game from my gaming platform ๐
@marsh sentinel thank you for your response ๐ I'm going to try this address.
no
Ok thank you.
hallo
does anyone know if playing with 3x resource rate makes the ancient roots have 3x the base amount of sap as well?
so 150 instead of 50?
Probably not but maybe it generates 3x faster
Or the extractor might drop 30 instead of 10 when full. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
how to change dodge keybinds
yes
by changing your block key and jump key i think
i wished roll was one key but didnt take long to get used to blocking before every roll
you got it it drop 30 when full
Ok I don't understand these console commands for Steam. It says spawn is not valid... What did I do wrong?
x.x the one time I decide to give this stuff a try and I don't get it XD
you need to have devcommands first
and then make sure the items are spelled right (according to the game)
huh???
in console commands type
I mean I followed the instructions I was given XD but I don't get what I did wrong
can you spawn anything?
No and I already put into general -console for loading
ah okay
when in console in game : type in
devcommands
do I have to do that every time?
aye I believe so
but it takes no time
ok so they didn't have that in the instructions XD
no it was just a site that has all of the console commands that are currently listed
I don't think I'm allowed to post the link here
yeah I getcha, lots of "gaming" sites suck
but It's just PCGamer's site
๐คฎ
It was the only one x.x that had an actual list that I could find
I don't like them either.
but it should work now right?
hang on XD
๐ช
omg ty XD I feel so accomplished atm.
I was just wanting to pick up one of a couple of materials just to have portals unlocked on my new builder
Just felt like putzing around and wanted to head in right away.
๐ ๐ง ๐ผ โค๏ธ
I spawned tons of black marble without telling my buddies, it's fine
did some mining "off camera" you know
XD This is just one of my Funland servers
I only build on them, really, but it gets frustrating starting over with nothing unlocked
and I don't want to pull my main characters out of their servers atm XD
oh go a step further
do nocost
If it works out, I plan on building a octagonal hut โค๏ธ
and... maybe even fly
Yeah I love Hammer Mode
Maybe I'll post a screenie, when I finish, but it'll probably take me a bit.
back when the game first came a made a giant puzzle world for my friends that took hours to build but did it while flying
XD I know a few people who have built almost 100 floor towers
it's fun as hell
It took him almost a month, but XD he fully decorated it and everything.
that's probably my second favorite thing about valheim
it's like "Functional" buildings
@marsh sentinel Can I hug you? ^.^ that makes my life much easier.
meeting building requirements for x y z
You're welcome.
@crimson inlet@marsh sentinelGonna head off Discord and blow off some steam on building โค๏ธ you're both great.
Noon gjall ๐
good daaay~
yes, but you can program them to one specific enemy by a trophy
Thank you
hit him until he is no longer alive ๐
But heโs camping my loot
well, normal strategy would be fire arrows and hide behind pillars when he shoots the tentacles
you can also go right at him and parry or dodge whenever he stomps, then hit him and repeat
you should have cauldron by now ๐ค
Rolling makes you invincible, so it's great for getting items back around enemies that kill you quickly
Iโm not sure about world saves, but it is possible to revert your character back to a previous save - itโs in the โmanage savesโ screen.
You can do the same with worlds
I assumed so, but, so far, have only played multiplayer via a dedicated server. So I (presumably) canโt.
hey guys, im kinda curious if is it possible have dragons in valheim? since its a viking game right xd
there are dragons, but as in myths they are not really friendly ๐ (no you cant tame and ride them)
hmmm that myths kinda make sense lol, cuz ya dragons are terribly aggressive
oh btw what im trying to say is, if they will add another new mobs/monster (sry if my english is terrible lol)
ya like the dragon thingy xd
i am pretty certain there will be new mobs in Deep North (last biome) ๐ if those will be dragons or something similar... we will have to see ๐
What happens to the overworld simulation when you enter a dungeon? From personal experience, mobs are not in the same spot when you come out. But online you'll see it claimed that the simulation stops. It seems to me the simulation continues for at least a little bit.
dungeon interiors are actually in the overworld, just waaaay up in the sky above yggdrasil, invisible from that distance.
(since simulation distance is purely horizontal) when entering, the area around the dungeon remains loaded in as if you were standing at the entrance.
Awesome, that's exactly what I thought.
heyo, having an issue. Im trying out a new modpack (new to me) called M2_Modpack by DefaultTeam, no extra mods, no weird config settings, nothing. i booted it up and made fresh new configs and didnt tweak anything and i cant see my health or stamina, but i do have them cuz i can run out of stamina and also die. anybody know what the hell is doing this? any and all help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED
probably best to ask in #mods-discussion or #mods-issues ๐
OH BALLS I THOUGHT I WAS IN THERE LOL my bad
any wana play for abit?
Just abit?
๐ค about this much
what u guys think abt next biome
Deep north or Ashlands?
Mornin Gjall ๐
Morgen gjall.
Morgen Gjall
Its kinda weird switching from work schedule to school schedule, and even more so when the work was at night, i am already on my way home and it just doesent feel right xD
school times were great (not school itself tho sadly)
Which one?
idd guess hes talking about deepnorth?
Yo so I died fighting moder and just got my gear back and I went to go run down to repair my bow and now moder is down here in the Black Forest/Plainsโฆ
Good morgen gjall.
Good morning, vikings
Yep, enemies will follow you. And bosses don't despawn.
Has anyone experienced issues connecting to the server? I've found that I can't connect to any servers. I'm an Xbox user.
It was working fine half a day ago, but now just shows failed to connect
in the viking region (near where i live) its almost evening but god morgon anyway
I'm on Xbox. I haven't tried to connect to any servers today but I usually don't have any trouble with it.
im on steam and it works for me so i guess its an issue with the xbox servers or sumthin?
I'm able to connect to my own but I don't know if that's the same thing or not.
Would you please try to connect a dedicate server?
Sure thing. Give me just a few.
You want me to try to connect to your game or just any other server?
Any other server
Got ya. Gonna try now.
I canโt join in anyone of them๐ฎโ๐จ
It worked for me just fine. It must be on your end.
Appreciate for that!! Tying reboot everything!!๐คช
No worries. Hopefully a reboot fixes it.
Morgen Gjall
good morniiing~
Morning ^^
Anyone interested in creating custom world here ?
Howdy officer ๐ฎโโ๏ธ
anybody tried to access the valheim wiki lately? getting a 'Header Overflow' error.
works fine for me ๐ค
hmm ok thnaks.
Huh, it works just fine for me ๐ค and they say its apparently on both pc and mobile
Yay for intermittent problems.
even other wikis work ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Kinda funny that you occasionally mention that "Reddit bad" but you still seem to be active there
(basically what I do too)
now that's on you ๐ค
Oh, it's not universal by any memes, there are certainly subreddits that are perfectly reasonable.
By any means, what a stupid typo.
You lads should try this thing called 4chan
Ironically, valheim isn't frequently one of them (sees the 100th post about a list of suggestions that won't happen + comments of people complaining about it)
I thought it was intended LOL
4chan got some amazing art
Not on this occasion, no! lol.
Yikes lol
Yikes?
I thought you were joking but it seems you weren't lol
no..?
4chan /M
best place
very few places on the internet where you can find that stuff ๐ค
and alot of artists will even make stuff for free for ya'
might not be known fact. but I am a 80's mecha person ๐
๐
Crazy disrespect
I took as a sign of aproval ๐ค
Oh my bad
Respect ๐ฏ
Gen Z uses it one way, millennials use it another
Nothing wrong with enjoying mechas, mechas are rad. Miss me with 4 chan tho
Smiffe! Get in the robot!
Reminds me of Big O
Gen X uses it both waysโฆ ๐๐
bonemass is hard, any tips for him for a solo player? im struggling with him, i have iron leggings, root armor for the rest, and a deer cape. and i am using a mase, but he just does a lot of dmg, should i make a iron chest piece and level up those two iron armors?
i think thatd help, but i need the helmet for poison resist
you can switch the root armor pieces for iron ones and get mead for poison resist, it gives 75% reduction and the mask gives 50%
yeah i know, but i havent set up that yet, ig ill get that set up, im moding and im somewhat speedrunning it
is this your first playthrough? ๐ค
no
but i played with two others last time and we got silver first
so this is a bit harder than that
oh, well you might want to try at least one solo not moded playthrough then, skipping progression is also not always advisable
i know
and i dont want a non modded one rn, i just did a non modded and i get bored easily
If you have poison resist on, don't be scared of spamming left click when bonemass pukes
That's like 8 free hits
Same when he rubs his sexy armpits
lmao wtf
Aye, puke is the poison cloud
Armpit is him throwing new slime spawn
unrelated, but i turned off anti ailiasing, and the game looks way more vibrant, i actually like it better like this, and as a bonus the game runs better
Mornin Gjall ๐
Ello asatru
Morgen gjall.
One snooze...
Many sneeze.
About 3 each weekday morning.
Snoozing ruins my whole morning if I do it
And setting an alarm to go 10-15 minutes early is a terrible idea for me too because it makes me snooze
It needs to be perfect
Early enough to do my stuff
Late enough to not snooze
I need to be able to turn around at least once, snuggle in the blankets and than I'm good to go, I prefer slowly waking up in about 15 minutes instead of the alarm going and getting out of bed instantly.
๐ค but the best thing you can do when waking up is to sit upright no?
If I lay down for like 15 minutes I'll be so damn groggy and feel like a train hit my face
I feel groggy when I wake up, sit up or start my day instantly, if I don't have at least 1 snooze I don't feel human, till the day is well and truly started, I'll be at work for a while before I find my equilibrium.
If I can snooze for 5-15 minutes I'm more awake.
My wife is like you, her alarm goes she's wide awake and can start her day.
Me and the kids need "5 more minutes".
It feels like a must
5 more minutes makes it so much harder for me
Especially when you absolutely fall asleep in those 5 minutes
You go through the 5 stages of grief again
i feel exhausted if i sleep half an hour longer than i usually do
sleeping less is fine for me but waking up later absolutely ruins my energy
Half an hour is definitely deep sleep
I don't fall asleep in those 5 minutes, I'm just laying there basking in the warm blankets, slowly waking up, stretching and such.
That isn't a problem for me, In the weekends I sleep like 1-3 hours longer than I usually do, in the week alarm at 6 out of bed at 6:15.
In the weekends my wife wakes me up somewhere between 7 and 9.
good morgen gjall.
are there any servers available to join in without the need of a password
the community servers are tad confusing
no, every server has one, there are no "true community servers" because all are run by players, you can look through #1024264966712340510 tho ๐
i see thx
Good Morgen Gjall
good afternoon gjall ๐
valheim kinda mid
mid... gard. Actually, it's not in Midgard. But i can see how you might think so
Statistically, 67% of everything is 'mid'.
Did you guys hear about this indie game called valheim?
Released a couple of years ago
Steam reviews look good , should i get it?
It's still not been released. Valheim is the anti-WoW model. All 'expansions' have to be finished before we get a '1' ahead of the decimal point.
Its made by a studio about doors or smth
Oh yeh! They're called 'Hard To Twist Knobs', or something like that, right?
Really? I thought it was a gate thing.
Actually, what is the difference between a gate and a door? Functionally they're the same.
Isn't it metal based, too? Like Brass Portal or Titanium Turnstile or something?
A gate typically doesn't have a full frame, where a door does, at least to my understanding ๐
A brass gate might not be tough enough. Maybe some iron alloy....
Steel Saloondoor?
That would have made many-a-Western film more interesting lol
If only we can paint doors in the game to achieve such an appearance.
I tend to rely more on spikes than doors anyway. My friends don't care for them but long as they don't raid, it's all good.
Nothing says 'coming home' like impaling oneself on a spike...
Need to go full on looney tunes and paint a tunnel on a wall ๐
I love that! Let's have a school of magic that allows us to cast build pieces (or build shapes) onto existing structures.
Masonomancy.
I feel like Roadrunnermancy is structured for the Mancer to fail. Masonomancy would have Coyote running right through that painting.
Someone spilled some coffee, last I heard
and no one wiped it up? not even the guy behind the green door (or was it a golden gate????) ๐
i do beleive thats just the publisher
just watched the german helldivers 2 intro
that hits very different i see
now watch the japanese one
and then its the japense empire huh
I donโt understand. Theyโre the same as the English version. Only dubbed.
look at them ๐
quick question- are grausten build pieces immune to elemental dmg like marble is?
Only resistant
Cool. Eitr production will resume at the mistlands Magic Supply co factory then ๐
Mornin Gjall ๐
Morgen gjall.
just had to count out 2800 apples or 35 boxes for the cancer charity thing
I interpreted this in two different ways
how exactly?
Once as an adjective
Once as a proper noun 
That is a lot of counting, so 80 per box, did you have to manually count each or did you have those cardboard things with dents in so you just had to fill those?
mostly had to lift the boxes but some people didnt buy 80 apples some bought 20, others bought 28 some had 43 but one family alone had 13 +11 apples
I watched a German one I found on YouTube, and half a Japanese one. They both appeared to be the same as the English one, but dubbed. What did I miss?
it just hits diffrently ๐
Huh. Now Iโm curious as to why. But this maybe isnโt the right place for that discussion. Not sure.
I see. I both understand (in that I am familiar with the concept) and donโt understand (because I generally donโt strongly make such connections myself (likely part of my autism)).
He's Austrian.
well.. austrians speak german too
Not sure if it's true, but there was a rumour that Arnold didn't dub the German version of Terminator because his dialect was too "hillbilly"-like?
same same ๐
Goodmorning chat
Hello everyone! 
Couple of months ago was chatting in here and i said i was studying for my first year as game dev today i got my results in i failed my year
Oh no! Can you take it again?
i cannot sadly enough
Is there another path you can take?
it's back to work for me
atleast i cn proudly say i tried to go for it
i might practice some more and increase my skills
i learned the basics so wouldn't hurt to increase on them in my free time and who knows in the future
I thought game dev was more about passion and less about studying
To be frank, I didn't know it could be studied
oposite ^
why?
I keep picturing the old days at Nintendo hq in their cubicles
Did they study it back then
Game development in particular
game development is a competitive industry that attracts lots of engineers. thouse with the best degrees, backgrounds, and skills are going to get jobs easier
Or like the person who made muck
and studying helps a ton there
Yeah I'd imagine studying art, software engineering, etc
I didn't know game development was one
one of the major roles in game development is software engineering, no?
Yea, a smaller bite of it
and on the art side, people go to school and study to learn to make media also
nothing stops anyone from just doing something themselves, but if you're a major game company that gets hundreds of resumes for open positions, things like degrees, which school you attended, where you interned, all make resumes float to the top of the list
i work for a major company. We just posted a job description. It got 450 applicants in less than a week
we also have 3 internal applicants
Applications include game development?
applicants = people applying to the role
Applications include in the application game development?
game development is a multi billion dollar a year business. i'm positive the story is the same at any major game dev company. even more so, since a lot of people dream about making video games for a living
i don't know what you're asking here
i know the software dev side more than anything, and yes, you need a degree generally to get your foot in the door. at a bare minimum.
It's actually quite complicated ๐
why would i hire someone without a degree, when i have 300+ applicants with degrees from good schools, and 100 from great schools? I can't talk to every single applicant
Oof
It sounds less fun
so i have to use something to make decisions, and a degree and the school is part of it
Because the greatest franchises came from regular people
I think?
then those regular people should go start their own company, because it's not that type of envirionment anymore
๐Hmmhmm
if you want to get into an existing company, it's a whole different story
It sounds way more depressing that way
Like a regular job
... Meanwhile indie games top charts ๐
Is valheim considered indie game?
For every successful indie game there are 1000 failures. At least.
Harsh
No doubt. It's probably the same in any field of expertise.
Indie isn't necessarily small, it's independent.
Or, it's a 1930s archaeologist that likes to adventure.
in which case valheim wouldnt be an indie game anyway
the issue with stuff like indie and AAA is that its entirely vibes based
WTF are you talking about?
Ignore that, it doesn't matter to me.
indie studio/game and AAA studio/game have no hard borders and are decided entirely based on whether it feels like an indie title or AAA title
Actually, do IG count as indie?
most folksd probably say so
Despite being a subsidiary of CS?
cs is probably considered an indie publisher by most folks
they consider themselves an indie publisher
Well, isn't CS owned by Embracer?
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embracer_Group yes
outdated article
or at least soon to be apparently https://www.gamesindustry.biz/embracer-group-splits-into-three-everything-you-need-to-know
Coffe stain publishing is our publisher
they don't own us
Irongate Studios is a indie dev studio
oh ok
Huh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_Stain_Studios says you're a subsidiary.
it was probably just someone that assumed publisher meant subsidiary
bethesdas wiki pages have a lot of stuff like that too
30% minority holding (assuming that's correct), so not full ownership
that's normal in the industry
so the publisher can earn money
Yeah, that's why I said "subsidiary"
But you answered my question, thanks, @tardy vale ๐
^^
godot is a very nice up and coming open source game engine that's very easy to get into.
It's primary scripting language is python based, rather than c# or c++ for unity/unreal, which can be significantly easier to learn if you're less technically minded.
But the true gem is the node system, which lets you iterate ideas extremely quickly, especially combined with the engine's small size and load times
Hello community! I came with a question, where my friend on a fresh install of valheim, with exactly same mod profile as mine according to r2modman, starts the game, everything seems normal, but when he tries to join server, he is stuck in loading screen, yet he is on player list on server. When he generates new world on singleplayer, almost everything is empty, no trees, no locations, just land with grass. I've been playing and modding valheim for a long time, yet I have never encountered such issue. Does anyone have any idea ? There are no errors, console drops no errors as he claimed
I might check it out i allready know alot of unity and i really need to improve my c#
i had one exam questioning us who would u want as publisher and i was thinking of coffee stain but cus of stress and panick i wrote in black coffe stain xDDD
I'd prolly ask in #mods-issues or #mods-discussion as they'd be more familiar with modding
i do wanna say something since i saw alot of people commenting below what i posted
the studies i whent for was basicly IGP = independent game production this evolves everything in a indie studio and the goal of the coarse is to make u ready by the time u finish the studies at the end of the 3th year to be able to either join or open your own studios
so i received everything from how to look at the market to the design processes and history of gamin
under that also fell how to make 3D models how to learn coding in C# and how to model in both realisme and stylized
black stain coffe โค๏ธ ๐
i know i was panickin it was a tough exam xD
Anyone wanna participate in a random quiz?
I'll start it anyway.
You have to guess which country/continent I'm from.
You've already been given a hint, read carefully.
Australia
Correct!
Australia is home to 20/25 of the world's most venomous snakes.
Australia's emblem animal is the kangaroo.
What is the kangaroo's most powerful muscle? No using the internet to answer your questions, that's cheating.
I am a German... that lives... in Australia, thats why it was too easy for me mate ๐
Good to have you here, mate.
ooh boy, counting out those 2800 apples really did a number on me and my back ๐ฆ time to go sleep
the leg muscles?๐คทโโ๏ธ
the tail
Correct!
The tail is the strongest muscle of the kangaroo!
Kangaroos use their strong tail to lean back on and kick other kangaroos, competing and fighting for a mate.
But I asure you, they're all mates and family.
Speaking of family, what is the group name for the kangaroo?
Don't use google!
i dont know the name in english for it ๐ข
ah well its the same thing with 1 less letter
herd? or do you mean the latin classification?
Herd is sheep or other cattle. You're heading in the right direction.
It isn't the Latin classification.
What do you mean? Is this a guess?
nope go on google translate and watch what it is in french
oh i thing i missunderstand it
i though you mean the species ,,, silly me๐
My mistake.
I mean to group name. For sheep the group name would be herd, for seagulls it'd be a flock, ect.
Without using google, what is the group name for Kangaroos?
You're 1 guess away from a hint!
"collective noun"
Ha. Ha. Golf clap.
I'll give the hint. It is VERY obscure.
Aboriginals in Australia also use this word as a synonym for family.
Well, not just Aboriginals. It's an Australian synonym for family.
How can I provide helpful feedback that the combat needs a little attention?
#suggestions probably
I'm relatively new to the game. Can anyone tell me if when installing mods I can choose to activate or deactivate them so as not to affect my main gameplay?
I feel like I should really know thisโฆ itโs on the tip of my tongue
If you use a mod manager, sure. Though I'd recommend playing vanilla first.
Yes, I'm playing Vanila and I intend to finish it before using mods. I ask this precisely with the intention of playing Vanila again as updates come out. Play without the interference of mods.
Thanks
It's a shame that this option isn't natively available.
What option? The game doesn't come with mods.
It came.. no googling, just rattling round in my brain for 10 mins. Itโs Mob.
a mob of kangaroos. Why are we taking about kangaroos? We getting them in the plains biome?
Yes indeed, but several games give you the option to enable or disable mods internally. Just a detail, nothing more. Thanks again
how do I get flint?
shorelines
Hewwo all
Thanks
spawn DeerHide 100
theres no fun in that
true
Youโve just gotta hunt, itโs great fun early game. You can use a flint spear or some really good players sneak up with a knife. The wind direction counts so if you are downwind of them and sneaking they wonโt detect you. Obvs bow is the main way once you can make that
1 and 2 star deer drop more hide too
I used to play this game 2 years ago its a fun game but I quit becuase I lost 35 hours of game play
Dang, but for me starting again is always fun. Iโve started 6 or 7 times since 2021
Nice! game is pretty cool to play this game again
I love Steve
check in the world modifier, you can increase the drop spawn
Correct!
Woot! lol I just did this with the kiwi fam too, wife got it ๐ but sheโs an Aussie ๐
Fuck yeah, bro!
This quiz was actually designed for dumb americans so ๐
But not many Aussies know that either.
I'm making a quiz competition, you should DM me to join, I have one other player at the moment.
That invitation goes out to anyone else wanting to participate in a random fun quiz.
No credit card, no sign up, no bullshit. Just dm to join a random knowledge quiz.

I need to figure out what is causing my server to choke. It ran perfectly fine before we landed in ashlands.. now for some reason it's choking. ๐
Hello and goodmorning vikings!
I have an issue that i'd need some tips on...
Few days ago i asked about me and my friends on bonemass killing.
But, i've come to something even worse.. We use a mod called Epic Loot just to spice up the game, 4 out of 5 people use it as intended meanwhile the 5'th goes to his server and spawns Mythical items, orange color.. items i've never ever seen in my playthrough and im the one with most hours on this game out of all 5 of us.
Is there some way that i can check his inventory or such? I tried to download a inventory scout thingy from nexus mods but it seems like the '' cheater '' needs to have it aswell so i can't use it as i wanted...
not really no
I would ban him, kick him, recall him into edge of space and leave him there but i've given him chance after chance, tried to tell him that he don't just ruin it for himself but for all others on the server who spend countless hours to mine stone for our walls etc..
I want him to be with us to make our little village an actuall.. village..
Lonely sad guy gif lol
I guess ill just have to keep what i do atm, i do regular SWAT runs to his house, checks his '' hidden chests '' but i can't see what he has on him so to say, guess i just gotta recall him to a spot.. tell him to send printscreen of inventory or something
I wish i didn't have to act as the bad guy police... im a nice guy, this just makes me.. sadface tbh
you might see some wierdness in the dedicated server logs
For the time being i host from my pc but we have plans on renting a dedicated server tbh
But he is smart, he spawns on his server and brings em back to ours and keep most in inventory, he did mess up once yesterday by using a hammer with no building costs when i was just beside him and built on our wall and that's when i noticed.. how can he build with stone but i cant even tho im just beside him lol
just kill him in PvP and look at his tombstone
or just get rid of him if he breaks the common agreed rules
I always say Valheim servers are like someones house
break the rules, not be invited back
Yeah agreed..
even tho we are many people, we have our little fighting ground with rules of do not kill if not both accept it '' to the death '' so to say haha.
But the spawner guy is strickt and says No, i do not want to pvp even tho it may be friendly
But my plan right now is... I teleported another of my characters to deep north, made an area of a square, raised the ground like walls..
I will recall him there, tell him to show his inventory with printscreen, if there is items i've told him countless times not to use, then ill spawn fader and leave those two there to fite it out lol
hehe
or... ban him?
Yeah it's the last case scenario... it's a shame that i would have to do so, we would loose one of our villagers so to say which sadens me alot, i never had a group of 5 all together, working together.. its an awesome experience in this game, but yeah... he has brought spawned stuff even tho we set up rules a long time ago just because of him and he said he did read em aswell..
Are they someone you know outside of Valheim?
Afternoon gjall ๐
๐ you guys need new mods
Its naggers, you dog.
???
โฑ๏ธ
it's like watching a diver hold his breath for 10 minutes
I wonder if slang for a white dude is also a timeout.
maybe a teensie timeout
also depends on who does it
me for example, I'm nto allowed to put a โณ
What about putting something with crack in it?
Sorry for a late answer.
Well we are in a clan together in another game wich makes the whole thing abit more complicated lol
No worries, I came into the convo like 2 hours later. Anyway, yeah, that makes things tricky. Do you know them IRL?
Not irl
All you can do then is message them, and give them clear terms "These are the rules you agreed with. If you continue to break them I will have no choice than to remove you from the server." kinda thing. And then stick to that. Just be sure to be clear about what is expected of them and what the consequences will be.
If you want to run a server, run it. Don't be a people pleaser. Set the expectation and enforce it. Some people will leave, some will get kicked, but in the end you'll have a group that is on the same page as you and worth playing with.
We kicked someone, they were even an IRL friend for half of the group. But they were just not team players and just ran off with group acquired resources to do their own thing so we had to ask them to leave eventually. Awkward IRL but we got through it.
Yeah i will have to do it soon... Today when he logged on i had one sulution, sure it was embarrasing but what am i supposed to do at this point.. >.<
I teleported myself to 7000 7000 cords, made a jail thingy with roof since its in the top of map and i teleported him there, asked him to printscreen his inventory
If he would of have spawned items in there, id spawn 3-4 Moder bosses and just let him fite it out with.. Her and her cousins lol
Lucky for him he didn't, But now... i got a new question >.>
He is literally trying everything... Sigh..
He placed a Ward in his house so we can't work around his house.
If he loggs out, would his ward automaticlly turn on? Incase he lies?
I told him not to use one 5 times already and he said he want it for.. -.- '' Decoration purposes ''
You are being WAY more patient than I would be.
So right now he have logged out and the ward is On, i know he has been offline when the ward has been Off
for decoration purposes he can have you permited on it ๐
Omg yes, imma make him add me on it, idk why i didn't think about that.. * Face palm * lol
Yeah.. i dont know where i should draw the line honestly but feels like his 5000 chances has been afew too many already ๐
Like I said, give him an ultimatum. Make the terms and consequences clear. And if he break it, stick to your word. No matter what.
It's going to feel shitty. It always does. But if he keeps on breaking rules, and not facing the consequences of that, then he will likely never stop.
ahh i bet.. yeah it's annoying when you farm food, we are currently in the plains and spend good time on gathering resources for food just for people to.. spend it for building lol >.<<<<<<
So when you wanna adventure out in the plains or such.. you get like.. Carrots or honey as they should use while building lol
i would also make a detailed notes of all his missteps/wrongdoings that you can send him if he asks why ๐
Yeah agreed...
Yeah i will... We have written laws on our discord and he said he did read them so he should know this already
Do you guys know of the mod Epicloot?
Thought for the ones that do know if, if they are curious on what im talking about when it comes to spawning in, i thought id share a pic with you all lol.
I'll put it on the '' Screenshots '' on Valheim Media
modded screenshots should go to #mods-screenshots tho
ooppff my bad lol, i'll remove it and put it in the propper spot, thank you! o7
Done and done ๐
wards can also be destroyed by weapons ๐
@tardy vale I got my CT done, yesterday. ^.^ The doctors were freaking out for no reason, thankfully. Our state deletes your medical records, after 7 years. I had a beign tumor removed from my liver in 2013. XD what they were freaking out over was scar tissue, but they scared me to death thinking something else was wrong with me. Just wanted to let you know I'm gonna be ok though.
good to hear mate, as someone who has a chronic disease (same that killed my dad when I was only 30), health can be tough
@trim plume just FYI discord doesn't have an obligation to delete your data after 7 years -- generally whatever you disclose online is out there in public, effectively forever
Eh?
I treat online as if: you post it, its out there, never know if someone screenshots something, happens a lot with so many things already anyway, got the wayback machine and all that
and while most people here are indeed friendly, there are pulls up server member list... forty thousand people here, some of whom may not be super great to be sharing PII with. If you're comfortable with it that's fine, but it never hurts to be privacy conscientious
x.x ok I'll remove the post but it really didn't bother me.
lol, you're missing my point but ok
~.~ no it's ok, and even if someone screenied it, between then. It's just better to fix it. Anyway, I doubt I'll need to give any other updates. I'm hoping nothing else happens >.> for a long time.
True dat, I would never share my IRL name etc, John Doe signing out xD
I know I have no right to this conversation but I just wanted to say that if I were there I would not spawn anything in "outside of the server" and just play at the groups pace because I think that's how it should be played... No chests just pure survival coz what's the point otherwise?
While I agree, some people don't and that will cause issues. For myself, and people who understand how this works, it might even ruin the game for people who do this. I have had it happen where someone brought in powerful items into a server and then because they felt so OP they decreased their own playtime in the server by 95%, people can be a bit silly and ruin their own fun sometime. Also you do have a right to the conversation, don't be so harsh on yourself ๐
@craggy holly XD Most of us do use code names on Discord.
We do?
I think of you as the mayor of RDR2 Valentine township xD
haha XD It's actually after my favorite video game character ๐ Vincent Valentine, but yeah kinda.
we all know "Derek" is a misnomer and in reality you are a "Dalek"
@marsh sentinel well maybe not everyone does XD I did say most do though.
my name has lots of different versions, but this short one is just from this really: https://lovecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Plateau_of_Leng
and its a place not a person but I like adopting that haha
I just find it so discouraging to others if you have God items in a purely survival game. It is not fair to others, and ruins the point of survival for the person with God items. I can understand if you want it easy but if there are cookie cutter rules, someone's going to have to do the dirty work.
Um, no.
I have a list of mods that can stop a lot of this, but this is not the right channel to talk about mods (can DM if interested) and I also much prefer playing without mods, for ease of play and xbox crossplay etc
sometimes you just need to craft the Flametal banhammer
@craggy holly You aren't a Cthulu fan are you? XD That part of Lovecraft is kind of confusing and a little more horror-ridden. ~.~ not to mention all of the games, movies, and stories written from Cthulu worship. Some of them are pretty creepy.
Heading off Discord for a while. See you, when I see you again. plz be careful irl, stay safe, and healthy โค๏ธ
I love a lot of Lovecrafr things but Cthulu is just a small part of it that is much more popular in pop culture than the other stuff
Did you ever see the movie called Annihilation
I'm a huge lovecraft fan and it was based off The Colour out of Space
I have trouble w the amount of racism he slid into his works sometimes and gotta skip that shit
nope
yes there is problems I see that, name of his cat etc...
Heavily reccomend if you ever get around to it, it's got Natalie Portman and Oscar Isaac, and it involves a shimmer that starts spreading through a forest following a meteor crash. These scientists get sent in and find out what's going on
Less 'sucking the life out of the forest' and more changing it
Really really sick bear design too. You'll know what I mean fr
๐ญ that man was crazy
its crazier that some people think like that in 2024
but don't want to get into politics, should change topic imo
Like MintBerry Crunch is often overlooked cannon Lovecraft.
Minecraft movie should have been a movie made for 3 year olds for me to enjoy it
I need it to have no dialogue or cinema "comedy" ๐
Like I bet it would be best if they all just went "huh"
But then again, Jack black will carry it
Mornin Gjall ๐
Morgen gjall.
Well its nearly 5pm on a Friday already in Australia ๐
So you are already done with work then ๐
yay.tgif
holy crap im about to have an aneurism trying to piece together a grausten roof
It takes an absurd amount of the stuff to fill gaps and make it slightly bearable to look at ๐
The thing is, he dont only spawn in good items, he also spawns in lanterns and more cosmetic stuff to make his builds look better meanwhile everyone else don't even have that yet
Just feels so wrong lol, But we will c, he got slightly yelled at xD
He's basically forcibly speedrunning for better looks and i assume he has other things like way better gear or even god tier items. This makes it extremely unfair to everyone else.
I mean i'm just giving my opinion, or what I would do. I wouldn't want anyone to play on my worlds if they were going to do that unless they had a legitimate reason like they worked 12 hours every single day and only got 1 day off.
Yeah agreed, He was offline last night when we killed Yagluth, got our first dwerger tower down and got the sap collector item.
We have died alot, spent countless of hours on mining stone like you all know the pain of haha.
I dont think he actually helped anywhere, he started with us in the meadows.. and y'day before he logged out i teached him how to use the harvester so he actually helps with food making and not just take plains food from us to ... build his house -.---------------- lol
I just find that ridiculous. He's a freeloader minus the food making.
I did try to teach him alot but he always wanna play on his own he says, he removes himself from map time to time '' What, you guys can't see me on map? that's strange ''
Always gotta get him in the act of his shady stuffs lol
Yeah at that rate i would remove him because number one, he's lying to your faces about being on the server. Obviously he's somewhere in the world doing something malicious. No shame in playing on your own, but bosses should include everyone regardless.
y'day when we finally arrived to Mistlands for the first time ( me and the actual survival players ) We found a boat on the shore with a mega spawned gravestone, we took all items and hid it under the floor in our warehouse loll hahaha
100%
Maybe he's setting you guys up, going to mistlands before you guys and setting up "forgotten loot." Surely someone with god items wouldnt go there just to get shit only to leave it behind.
Thing is, he is kinda new to valheim, he only want magic stuff which he could not get his hands on so.. he spawned em in when we were in the meadows already and tried to hide them from there on
Idk how many times i've had to SWAT his building and look into his hidden chests behind walls etc lol
Freefly command <-
Well that was your first problem
i think even for a new player they should learn to play the game and get to that point of magic items
otherwise they will use that excuse every single time for every other item, "oh i wouldn't have gotten it any other way....."
Yeah xD
I keep giving him chances but last thing i can do now is to change password or smthn to serv tbh
Yeah... >.<
its a shame you have to go through that though. I think its much more exciting to teach someone the game through... well, by not using any commands and just doing pure survival. You've taken away the true hard work from them by giving them the allowance of having "magic item," which seems to be "this mistlands loot were magic items too..."
nono we dont allow him, we take them and then he spawns new ones lol * crying * haha
We did make clear laws to the serv that he keeps finding loopholes for, dumbest comment was.. '' What, i didn't even know that my chest contained the scatterblaster staff, someone must of put it there! ''
i thought id fall of my chair
That was at swamps i think aswell xD
Yeah haha, he thinks we are as smart as ... i dont have a good word for such a low brainless thing lol
He could just hoard inventory loot of god tier items. Or maybe hes not that smart. He reminds me of 12 year olds who dont like doing chores and find some way to not do them lol
Yeah, for now everytime he loggs in ( started with it yesterday ) I do the command recall, to a jail kind of thing up in the Far north, i asks for a printscreen of his inventory and if there yet.. still .. is.. more spawned stuff, i spawn in the current world boss we just killed cuz he wont know their attacks, and i dont spawn in 1 boss, but 4 ish
I would spawn in 4 fathers but if he somehow managed to kill 1, that would ruin the server cuz of events
So since yesterday, he gonna meet 4 Yalguths in a tiny area xD
I almost hope he gonna mess up just so i may watch that fight lol
Theoretically he could just empty his inventory outside of the server and take a picture of it and then give that to you thinking its going to work.
you have that "one progress per person" setting on dont you? always wondered how that worked.
What is that? ๐ฎ
It's a setting you can turn on for the world where each person has different progress for raids. I'm not sure if bosses count for that though.

Sometimes I like to theme my tamed animal names. Sometimes I try and deal with Greylings with fists only. Do you guys have any mini-games you play in Valheim?
Tamed animals I always have some with the same names, Chickens are KFC and Little, Boars are Peppa and Percy, Lox are Bill and Ted, lastly wolves are sit and heel, not really named Asksvin yet.
Given that they're basically "Asks Vin", I'd go with Fast and Furious. ๐
that or Petrol and Diesel ๐คฃ
That's good too. Maybe Pitch & Black?
I like it! Core names are important.

We're looking for a way to disable character saves server side for our HC map? When people die they can just load character saves to come right back in.
With all skills reset and gear removed. It's the same as starting over
don't randomly post that kind of stuff in here
I forget, how is pure speculation considered around here, if labelled as such?
this is a english only server fyi
english only in here as per #rules-and-info you agreed on entering the server
anyone wanna play? add me
you could check in #1024264966712340510
btw why the hell am i so exhausted for today
If labelled as such is usually OK. As long as it can't be construed as confirming anything.
PURE SPECULATION: I think it will 'just' be a new, witch-themed, possibly seasonal, merchant. Hopefully with some kind of tasks required to unlock new meads, or something like that.
Hopefully that's clear enough. ๐
A new merchant? Oof. We'd have all three merchants in consecutive biomes.
Well, that's what makes me think it might be. And if I'm right, then I'd be hopeful for a snow-themed merchant, possibly releasing alongside, or shortly before, DN... Why not a merchant in every biome?
That's... Excessive.
does malaria attack my crops?
No, there's no malaria in the game.
I mean deathskitos x)
Why? there's a tonne of stuff they could do with additional merchants - and they only spawn in one place per world, right? So you could easily not see them on your usual journeying.
There are 10 spawns for each merchant.
nah I mean honest question, do mosqitos attack my crops?
I don't think so, but don't quote me on that.
k thx
Yeah, but they only appear at one, correct?
And I'm sure that doesn't have to be a universal constant - perhaps Swamp and Mountain could only have 6 each, Plains and Mistlands 4, Ashlands and Deep North just 2. So they get harder to find the further you progress.
only by accident. If you're next to a crop and move when it attacks, it can destroy the crop.
Does any have tips on how to kill the queen solo?
windmills around your crop will kill deathsquitos for piece of mind if you dont figure it out for sure!
If you're not using magic, I'd recommend bile bombs and the demolisher. You can recover from damage in the entrance area.
Any pointers on fighting the queen
get some friends to help. fighting her solo is a bit of a slog where you can't see anything on top of endless waves of seekers
looking for valheim frnds who like building prefer players who dont quit after a few days you will need thunder store and some mods to pkaydm if intersted
they stay at the first spot you find them so if you look at there spawns ahead of time you can choose were
Hola! Estarรญa necesitando ayuda de un experto en construcciones con piedra, la consulta puntual es.. construcciones con piedra muy altas? ya que me da error y se rompen. Gracias!!
Hello! I would need help from an expert in stone constructions, the specific question is... very high stone constructions? since it gives me error and they break. Thank you!
Yeah, I know. My point was that there's all sorts of interesting things the devs could do. And it's clearly not like they're short on creativity. So whatever the Swamp update is I'm looking forward to it. But that I feel a series of merchants, one for each biome, could be really cool. And that there's ways they could easily stop it becoming 'excessive'.
theres gonna be another swamp update?
see: #news message
Have iron supports that themselves are fully 'grounded'.
Honestly, what would they sell that a) you couldn't give to one of the existing traders or b) could be a player recipe instead. I don't want any RPG in my survival crafter.
I already gave an example. And the game already has multiple โquestsโ. But who even said anything about RPG elements before you brought it up?
Thank you very much for your response!
There's also the concept of pressing if you want stone roof
Pressing?
You make the stone pressed so it hold its shape and give support.
Ye
Are we talking about Valheim here?
Yes in valheim 
Imagine a 4x4 grid
With the corners all stone
The middle 2x2 will not be supported
But if you build them fast enough they'll hold each other up
Like a pressed sandwich
1= one stone foundation
Stone knows failure is not an option so if would never dare to give in.
It would also never let its pride down so you can count on pressed stone.
What?
Simply, You can press stone between 2 stones
๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ
Middle square gets pressed and is supported
That makes stone 3 times as strong.
You can press between many
Idk the limit
Do you mean clipping one block into another?
I donโt even understand what you mean.
If you make a 8x8 meter walls and want a stone roof
It'll be a 4x4 grid of stone foundations
The middle stones will be supported via "pressing"
Huh?
Hmm..
If you hold twosmall boxes in your hands
You can pick up a third one if you press
They become bros and give each other strength by making each other pressed.
Valheim doesnโt work that way. The physics isnโt modelled like that.
Are you sure?
Based on everything Iโve read, seen, and experienced, yes.
It's consistent
If you'll tell me it's a bug then shame on the devs
But I think it's part of the physics
It's been consistent like that since the beginning
I'm sure it's in the physics but .. not sure .. so not sure hahah
It has to be in the physics
Let me check Mr google
It doesn't explicitly say but it does get supported well
Is it a bug then?
I donโt think itโs even a thingโฆ
Everyone knows stone is a gym bro.
I've saved some metal with some of my builds via pressing
Stone supports stone
Try it out Scott, or look at some YouTube videos I'm sure you'll find
Just second...
So, given this structure: #screenshots message
You're saying that if I put a stone floor tile between the two it the top of the pillars, it will stay up?
Maybe actually
I think the stone pillar isn't strong enough though
If you want to see the real result
Try building 4x4 foundation roof
What the actual?!
#screenshots message
Yeah they get pressed
I always try pressing before adding support
To cheap out on survival
Otherwise I'd build the support
This doesn't work if the build is too high
But nonetheless, pressing does give a bit of support
You can do even more
I don't know the limit
#survival-building-enjoyer 
Although now I opt to using nocost in my playthroughs because the costs and numbers are too bogus for anything nice
It can't be a bug, it works well no? And it's consistent
Well, I am like 99% certain they're not 'pressing'... like the physics isn't modelled like that... but this is crazy...
Aw come on it has to be
Never stop believing in pressed stone.
Because it wouldn't work if the middle is removed right?
If you remove the middle, the thing will collapse
Imagine two friends that fights, a third gets in the middle and brings the group together.
PRESSED STONE.
The max is 7 floor tiles span.
Why are you so certain though
Just a hunch?
Yeah, obviously you can extend it in 2-dimensions, so a 7x7 (14m x 14m) area.
But the middle will be harder to support.. or easier
If it doesn't work
One pillar in the middle will fix it
And it'll be a nice 7x7 roof with just one pillar (and the 4 walls)
So, unless literally everything official about how the structural integrity actually works is a lie, it simply doesn't work the way you are describing. The neighbouring tiles are not 'pressing' on each other. That's just not a thing.
I mean can't it be possible that the stone foundation reads the structural integrity of neighboring tiles and is like
Yeah good enough
But then again the stone supporting the middle stone is supported by the middle stone too 
So pick one
Bug or stone press โ
I mean if it's on the wiki
It's written by players
I bet if smiffe comes now he'll tell us stone pressing is a thing
Or.. we'll lose that ability next patch and I'll be mad
Each material has a horizontal and vertical structural integrity modifier. And the 100% ground integrity is kinda transmitted through the structure, and reduced by the integrity modifiers.
That I know
And some material have great horizontal modifiers or whatever
I never looked at numbers and stuff
All my builds come from experience and experimenting
Stone collapses instantly on horizontal
The wiki claims that it's information is taken directly from the code.
But with pressing... 
Exactly. So this 'pressing' shouldn't work!
Well, I can't say for certain
It just consistently works
For years!
Since my first playthrough 2021
The only thing left is to use wood
It wouldn't work!
Unless it's because the structural integrity is being transmitted through multiple 'paths'...
Wood doesn't press
Like
You can do it with high builds too
You can build walls on that roof and make another floor
And another roof on that floor as well
oh and the wiki actually has a paragraph about this that I apparently overlooked previously!
It just gets less reliable
Now you're a believer
I don't know about the wiki I don't look at it
Under 'Multiple Parents', here: https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Building_stability
A practical use of that feature is building non-ground stone floors. In a single support case, it is impossible to extend horizontally with stone, because HorizontalLoss for stone is 1 (i.e. 100% loss). But it is e.g. possible to build as big as 7x7 (49 blocks, 14x14 in meters) grid with stone floor pieces and metal support only on corners. Keep in mind that such structure holds together only as a whole, removing any block result in significant part of the structure falling apart.
But I guess it doesn't explain why
No, it does.
Multiple Parents
If a component is attached to multiple parents, the support from each individual parent is computed as in the single parent method, but total support is not just a sum of all parents.If two parents' support points are more than 100 degrees opposite each other (relative to the component) and are both below (at least 0.05m lower) the component's midpoint, the parents support the component together. Any pair of parents can support a component together, even if one or both parents are already supporting the component with another parent. The support for a component is calculated similarly to single support, except that only VerticalLoss is used, regardless of the angle, and the two support values are averaged. Thus, the formula for Parent A and Parent B would be:
MutualSupport = ( [Parent A's support] * (1 - [VerticalLoss] * [Distance to A])
+ [Parent B's support] * (1 - [VerticalLoss] * [Distance to B]) ) / 2Once all supportsโsingle and doubleโhave been calculated, the maximum support from all of them is chosen as the final support value for the component.
Hohoho
It works because the horizontal loss is ignored!
it's not a perfect system by any means ๐
But now scott's a believer of the stone pressing
I read that entire page, and somehow missed that part.
I never knew the exact reason
I just placed them and it always worked
I assume we try to emulate this
Yeah, as an engineer I am familiar with the IRL construction method. But having read up on how it worked in game, I never even thought to try it. Because the game just isn't modelling the physics that makes it work IRL.
Like how would a block read the neighboring blocks
modern games are amazing at calculations
That's how I managed to cheap out on some metal poles
Oh, for sure. But they also do entirely unrealistic things like entire structures just floating in air for a few seconds when you take the foundations out.
I always try pressing first
See where it can't hold anymore
Build the support there while obviously maintaining asthetics
that is actually a delay we have added
we could have all falling apart in the matter of seconds
if you want to try it. build 3 towers out of diffrent materials. then destroy the base and watch the delay things break. it's actually diffrent speed
On wood, stone is immediately like, don't even try
I thought the delay was like
"Calculating โฒ๏ธ"
Yeah, but it's not modelling the physical effects that create structural integrity in real life. At least not until the block turn into materials, then gravity takes over.
no. we choose the "gamey" option over IRL
Yeah, totally get that (I've written physics simulations, they're annoying).
also. the faster it is. the more noticeable it will be if there is a hickup ๐
Oh, yeah, that delay has saved my hardwork multiple times!
With that, you can make a bonfire kitchen which is annoying and doesn't look nice
But it's fun
The only thing I didn't try is cauldron
I know it gives fire buff so it definitely can cook
But how to do it would be tough
Not cauldron
Brazier?
or the iron fire pit?
The hanging brazier
yeah, how would you get a cooking station over it?
I can definitely find a way 
I did it with bonfire
With bonfire I had like 6 spits and a cauldron
And to be honest
My latest one actually looked good
But there was always a slight chance to burn yourself
Anyway, thanks for teaching me something I didn't know about the game. ๐
Absolutely
You provided confirmation
I had no concrete proof
No pun intended
The only thing I had was that it works for me
