# Cinderwild 0.6.0 playtest
|
|
|
|
Thanks for playing. This build is the **Valley** and the **Cove**, and
|
|
we'd like to know what breaks, what's confusing, and what's no fun. The
|
|
game's player guide is on the download page: https://cinderwild.psbailey.uk
|
|
|
|
## Reporting a bug
|
|
|
|
Press **Esc** in the game, then **Report a bug**:
|
|
|
|
- **Open the bug report page** opens a new issue on the Cinderwild Gitea page
|
|
in your browser, already filled in with your version, computer, mode,
|
|
land, the in-game time and where you are. Say what happened, what you
|
|
expected, and how to make it happen again, then press **Create Issue**.
|
|
Posting needs a (free) account on the Gitea server, and you need to be
|
|
signed in. Nothing is sent from the game itself.
|
|
- **Copy the details** puts the same details on your clipboard, if you'd
|
|
rather send them by message.
|
|
- **Show the log file** opens the folder with `godot.log`. For a crash or an
|
|
error message, attach it to the issue (drag it into the comment box).
|
|
`godot.log` is the latest run; the last few runs before it are kept
|
|
beside it, named with the date and time.
|
|
|
|
Where the log is:
|
|
|
|
| | |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Mac | `~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/Cinderwild/logs/godot.log` |
|
|
| Windows | `%APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Cinderwild\logs\godot.log` |
|
|
| Linux | `~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/Cinderwild/logs/godot.log` |
|
|
|
|
A screenshot helps for anything that looks wrong (Cmd+Shift+4 on a Mac,
|
|
Win+Shift+S on Windows).
|
|
|
|
One problem per issue, please; a second issue is better than a long one.
|
|
|
|
## What to try
|
|
|
|
Play however you like; these are the parts that are new or that we'd most
|
|
like tried.
|
|
|
|
**The Valley**
|
|
- The tutorial with Old Tam (New World, Tutorial), or start a normal world
|
|
and listen for his tips.
|
|
- Make a camp, survive a few nights, a winter, a wolf moon.
|
|
- Iron, stone building, the barrow, the standing stones and the Old Stag.
|
|
- Out on the clifftop, the cracked seam: dig the cliff tunnel down to the
|
|
Cove (an antler pickaxe, wood to prop it, lights).
|
|
|
|
**The Cove (new in 0.6.0)**
|
|
- The wreck at the far end of the beach: the captain's sea chest has a
|
|
treasure map for each player. Right-click the map, find your X (N for the
|
|
map), and dig it up with a pickaxe. Don't dig at night, or do.
|
|
- The pier: mackerel close in, cod from the far end.
|
|
- Gulls, after food on the sand and fish on a smoking rack.
|
|
- Crabs on the beach from dusk till dawn.
|
|
- Build a rowing boat (seagrass rope, pitch from pine resin and salt,
|
|
driftwood and nails, at a workbench) and tie it up at the end of the pier.
|
|
|
|
**Online**
|
|
- Host Game from the title screen, and have a friend join. Over the
|
|
internet, forward UDP ports **24242** and **24243** (the Cove has its own
|
|
server on the next port).
|
|
- Go between the lands together and apart, chat, sleep (everyone in every
|
|
land has to be in bed), and leave and come back.
|
|
|
|
## Not in this build (these aren't bugs)
|
|
|
|
- **Setting sail.** The boat ties up but can't leave yet: the Highlands are
|
|
the next part of the journey.
|
|
- **Pirate gold** has no use yet beyond being a trophy: there's no trader.
|
|
- **The ship's compass** does nothing yet; it's what the boat will need.
|
|
|
|
## Things we'd especially like to hear
|
|
|
|
- Anywhere you got stuck, or didn't know what to do next.
|
|
- Anything that felt too hard, too easy, or too slow (night, hunger, cold,
|
|
the drowned crew, the crabs).
|
|
- Frame-rate drops, and on what computer.
|
|
- Anything online that went out of step between players.
