I am sure some of these have been talked about, but my list for additional improvements would be:
- Shared world map. The players on my server would love to have a shared world map or the option to opt into a shared world map where you can mark things for other players in game and they can see where you have explored. Just a check box to opt in when you join a server or a check box that says "See world map" and you can choose what you want and don't want to see. Like options for:
- Show all explored areas
- Show all mining marks
- Show discovered home marks
- Reduce spawn and drop rates of Greydwarfs. I feel like when I am out all I am doing is just constantly fighting off these guys no matter what. They just continuously spawn over and over again without pause. Then after you kill them you really don't want to pick up the garbage they drop… these should really be like a 10% drop rate for Dwarf eyes unless the spawns are changed. I get it's a survival game, but the spawn rate is just too much.
- Allow adjustable day night cycle times. The days are pretty short and in a game where managing the day light, it really shouldn't be set to such a short time limit. You can't really walk anywhere of great distance in a day time cycle. I would be happy to have it adjustable on the server side so the host selects the day time vs night time cycle.
All of the time cycles just feel like they are really short durations that could be extended. Perhaps double the duration of all timed events. Instead of 600 seconds for a Raspberry, make it 1200 and 2400 for cooked meat.
