JC have insisted to not include that option. However, a good trick is to use the timers (dunno if the default client got that) and set up a 2 hour timer for sanity breaks. I use those breaks to level up with a couple inspirationals and stocking back up on fireplace based restorative foods. Been avoiding additional madness levels so far after I started doing that.

Thank you for reply.
Will know, another one pain for free. But in my opinion it is mockery to force people to do something like that. I rather join the many who have decided to leave this game than I will do the similar. Where is our fun? This is not a Tamagotchi.

Anyone who thinks that insanity is a problem is more then likely the person who watches fox news like a religion. If you are playing the game outside the darkness and actually gaining insanity then you are clearly not playing the game and standing around afk. I study ONCE every 15-30 mins while I do w.e needs to be done. Even with my hunting character killing darkness monsters has proven to be not a problem. The only time I've gained a madness level was filling my stoves with argopelters.

Madness is manageable and there isn't a problem. Stop being drama queens and actually play the game.

how about being able to dig a small pond that you would have to fill with water. it would be great for landscaping your town as well as providing a fishing/rubble sifting area for people who have a base is a long distance from a waterway. another idea would be to add a miners trough. have it look just like the tanning ones. Thanks

These items are already in the game, would it not be a simple idea to allow us to craft some of these?

Please not the conquistador stuff!
It should be some of the most valuable gear there is if you just keep it non craftable.
Maybe it should be a reward to the best expedition player and so on.

Yeah we have quite a bit of clothing that we can add to be honest. Just new clothing hasn't been a priority recently.

wouldnt it take such a long time to implement it tbh?

edit: also

"Fine Teddybear"
- Glass button
- Gold Lace
- 2x darkness hides
- 10x fluffy stuffing

reduces madness by 2 if sleeping for 8hours

We have plans to implement an entire array of stuffed animal collections.

Like beanie babies for Salem ¦] . Hard to prioritize over the other stuff we need to do at the moment though. The idea would be sleeping with different types of little stuffed animals might give you a prof level here or there or some other bonus.
