New Release! (BTW V3.96)

Version 3.96 of Better Than Wolves is ready for download!

Download Link

This release contains the following changes:

-Added the ability for pigs to eat Kibble. They won't follow you if you're holding it though...it's not that appealing ;)

-Added ability to melt chain armor down in the Crucible, since you can now buy it from villagers, and it looks like ass.

-Added shift-click functionality to villager merchant gui, as it was frigging annoying without.

-Changed the name of Dog Food to Kibble.

-Changed the recipe for Kibble to involve bone meal and a dash of sugar.

-Fixed problem with the Block Dispenser being able to suck the wool off of baby sheep.

-Fixed problem with not being able to render Tanned Leather Armor and Breeding Harnesses into glue.

-----

Just a very small release today, mainly to cover the Kibble recipe change before too many people build systems based on the previous version.

Enjoy! :)

No, it still counts. Five for five it is.

When you say, "feed pigs kibbble" does that mean for breeding purposes instead of wheat? Or do you have some harcore piggy shenanigans in store? :)

And be careful abbout this update schedule, hon. You'll spoil us.

But, but... I haven't even had time to play properly with 3.95 yet!

5 for five, you are setting all kinds of records, man. :)

Thanks!

Yup, it's for breeding. It brings just a little bit more diversity into the automated systems for various animals, and provides an added incentive to kibbilize your operations.

It's also highly unlikely that anyone will ever need enough Dung to consume all the flesh and bones a decent sized mob-trap produces. This allows you to instead convert it into the much more valuable Tallow ;)

It's quite amazing nevertheless. I mean, I lack sleep already from testing those updates, I don't even want to know how things are on your side.

That being said, I shouldn't be in front of my pc right now... so have a good night/day/whatever and my best wishes, filled with awe, inspiration and fear. I'll be back playing in a couple of hours.

Holy crap man! You really are just showing everyone else up.

At least this doesn't have a brand new mode to figure out. ;)

Thanks for the update as always, man.

So fully automatic tallow production then. Can't make wheat farming 100% automatic (not to my knowledge at least, you still have to plant), but it seems like you can make Kibble fully automated. INFINITE MINING CHARGES >:D

edit: "This allows you to instead convert it into the much more valuable Tallow ;)" Damn didn't notice you typed that.

To one of your immense unholy power, death is merely a temporary setback.

Make sure to leave the source-code behind please ;). Any chance you will add a bone meal relöated item to feed cows as well ? The whole not following me around of pigs with kibble enabled me to get close to my analog farms once more w/o dropping my frame rate to zero. That pig-kibble feature alone would have made it worth for me to name this release v3.100 :).

This so reminds me of crunch time back in the day! Amazing work for just one guy and possibly mass quantities of caffeine/alcohol. Thank you for keeping this game fun and interesting, sticking to your vision, and staying in touch with your community. You're made of some kind of gaming awesome that I wish there was more of in the industry. You rock this, man!
