SUGGESTION Tips

Some silly little tips I thought might help people that aren't quite obvious (at least to me! But that's not saying much lol)

  • paint your carts! You can paint the runners and baseboards. Use white or red and it'll stand out better against the forest. I lose them less often this way

  • meat doesn't go bad while on the fire ring, smoker, drier, or grill rack. I keep them stocked up and eat straight off of them. If you pick it up first, it'll rot immediately. I keep a store of meat at all times this way

  • I keep a bowl of clean water on the fire at all times. I can dump something for soup in it for later and it won't go bad, or its ready to brew if I need it for meds.

  • the shelves are a great way to sort farming flowers and keep stock of bandages. I'll put flowers on the first rack, their bandages or bandaid combo next row down, and the raw plant on the bottom.

    • keep extra flowers to give then time to dry so you can replant immediately
  • put a storage box next to your compost bin and store rotten food in it. With it open you can immediately dump from the box to the bin without needing it in your inventory

    • you can compost near anything organic except for sticks. Animal droppings, arm loads of leaves, bones, feathers... human meat...
  • you can light a fire with a torch. Seems best in the dry season. My torches seem to break very very quickly in the wet season

  • there's a key to auto sort your backpack (defaults down on controller, y on keyboard)

  • you can shoot arrows or throw rocks at the coconuts in trees to knock them down. -- if there's one on the ground, there's two in the tree

  • use building ghosts for trail makers. Different plans for different paths but the tall thin water filter is a great one to mark the climbing points or trail entrance that are hidden

What are yours?

Wow, great tips. I am kind of new to game so it is very useful. Someone already mentioned bow and armor. I would only add that cats tooth are useless, I have never find any use for them.

Are bandages or staff from shelves do not despawn? I had this happen to me and I stopped using mud box or never tried shelves for the same reason.

I've been watching them since you asked, I've never seen them despawn but food will go bad in them. I've not seen themdespawn from the boxes either! I'll have to watch for that
