The majority of the evening, Tulsi was having issues trying to connect. His Java kept crashing on him eversince he updated to a new Java version today. So did I, but I’m not having any issues.
His other ‘issue’ is that he’s using Windows 10. I couldn’t help him even if I wanted to.
Meanwhile, I myself was faced with my own dilemma. Was waiting for Ivan to come back, so I could ask him for a few things. He never showed up, and Tulsi was somehow wounded (and he didn’t know how he got it). Probably went AFK next to a bear.
So I tried to figure out what we should do. Got attacked by a bear, then decided we should go look for a more active village.
So, just as I was about to get someone else to give us a place to live (by going to the town we currently live near to get the name, so I could tell Tulsi that we need to leave it), Ivan gets on. I guess this is when he usually gets on at his time. Very well. I will be more patient this time.
So, he healed Tulsi’s wounds while I managed to snag some meals from the oven he told me they’re in. He also got me a pair of fishing poles and buckets. All I have to do now is make a farm, and we’ll have a pretty much infinite supply of food.
While Tulsi was still having issues with connecting, Ivan (from his town) helped me figure out Wurm’s new way to build stuff; the new Crafting GUI. He claimed it was “self-explanatory”, but it took me awhile ’till I finally figured it out.
He also made me some nails and gave me some planks, just enough to begin construction of the house.
And… that’s basically all that happened. Oh yeah. Forgot to mention having two bears and a spider encounter. I still have a Medium after the second encounter. And the other thing, Ivan is offering me one of his sailboats (once we’re ready to head off on our own). Need to get perm though, before I can drive one.
I do feel I’m going to need that boat sooner than later, so we can get to the Freedom Market and get some water skins, and some healing mats.
