Hmmm I thought it was just me.
Of course I tried mining with the starberry pies instead of persist, with a couple of cheap hammers. And ever since then (the day of that release) it seems like I run out of stamina so fast I’m not sure how I ever endured it for so long.
I sort of laughingly have wondered if it was a change in my perception due to the endless energy experience with the pie, or if the feature was subtly rebalanced to encourage less use of persisting foods and more use of the energy foods.
I mean to say, I wrote it off as paranoia - but if other people feel they’re having the same experience, it wouldn’t hurt for the devs to address this.
With regards to the lighting issue, this is a daily disappointment for me. It adds to the issues I have with storage and being interested/bothered to try and design areas to support higher throughput workflows. And it’s just annoying.
Useless for display, useless for color sorting. I’m not going to flood this thread with off topic screenshots but there are several in this thread showing that even in a 3x3 of cabinets surrounded with lanterns, you can’t even tell that there are blocks in the cabinet.
Very disappointed that there’s been no other feedback on, or even mention of, these issues. The color banding seems to have been dismissed with the statement that making the walls double thick should stop it but the vault pictured here is built into a mountain, there’s only one spot, less than 2 blocks, where the inner wall is exposed.
There’s an open access a couple plots away from the pictured cabinets and honestly there’s no way it’s acceptable that this is somehow casting a diffracted spectrum across these cabinets several plots away, or the others around the corner. As for the cabinets near the entryway …
Those are ashen gray cabinets with cold berry etc … from Houchus showing in the first three columns, and Galan rocks in the second three columns. To be honest I didn’t even realize the second three columns still had rock in them until I actually opened the cabinets. This is full daylight with me standing in the open door.
Max light forge effect and up very close:
The stamina issue is a big hit to my productivity and operating costs. But as I look towards trying to design some higher throughput working spaces and rebuilding my base in a less constricted area, the lighting issues are a constant source of frustration and disappointment.
Even going to white light on white cabinets doesn’t address the direct lighting issue. And as for having to double wall/ceiling every room and possibly not have doors or open entries into working and storage spaces to avoid the refraction effect - it doesn’t seem reasonable.
Hey the glass panes look great though!
