[edit:] So many nice things!

very nice New Year's present for all of us thank you very much, John <3

I do not like the idea of crows, as they add another chore to the game. I dislike it when the game additionally punishes you when you can't log in on time or often enough.

John :
- it's "Concordat of Worms" not "Concordant" , the Pope and the King the Emperor disagree with you !
- nice improvment about playing with animals. It was so hard to play with 90+ red bar lambs
- baby animal don't die so much (except player fight or Ram/male fight, both can be handle easily) ; insanity from it seems a little bit minor.

If you don't log in, then your fields shouldn't be loaded, and if your fields are not loaded then you shouldn't be having crows spawning on them. I see crows far less as a 'chore' so much as they are an additional variable and metric to the game to make sure you are alert and paying attention to what is happening in and around your base. Not just drone-ing along without a care in the world simply because you are behind your own walls.

As always, I really appreciate your feedback and constant awesome reports you send me in PM's. However, the baby animal thing was a knee-jerk reaction to a barn that wasn't loaded in quite some time on Popham. That as a result, when the barn got loaded a crazy number of baby animals being housed in that barn all died at the same time killing a poor popham player. It seems entirely unreasonable that an entire barn can be a death trap in this manner and the changes were more or less meant to make insta-death to baby animals less of a thing while still allowing players to bring their baby animals to town and slaughter them in front of an AFK or otherwise foolish player killing him in a reasonable amount of time .

nice patch, all we need now is the ability to put ore in stockbins

what about storing Leather? )

[HolyLight]

JC, you shouldnt go overboard with listening to people and the stock bins.

In reality, what person would stock CLOTH in an outdoors stockbin ?

Could i suggest a 2nd kind of stockbin that can only be build inside and make it so the current stock bin can only be built outside, and these stock bins store different kinds of materials from its outdoors counterparts ? Lets try and keep it reasonable ?

Also i would really love it if we could pick up coal directly from a stock bin using a Coal bucket**

This bucket made from 2 Wrought iron, when picked up and used on a stock bin holding coal, fills the bucket (15 coal), and if holding the right key (alt or shift or control, i forget which), with each click allows you to fill multipul buckets. You can then use the bucket on furnaces / bloomerys to fill them.

This would make a great addition to the metal industry.
