How do I deal with winter freezing cold?

What should I do? If this keeps up, he will eventually die!


Also, I'm 1 week alive. When it reaches 2 weeks, foods are gonna rot. I need to find books about farming. I tried School. No luck. Should I travel to a big farm? Where do I get books for beginners?

work up your carpentry and find an old antique oven and drag it back to your base.

I don't think I have the time to do that. It's like I was set to fail, since the game began in winter. Where the heck do I find books anyway, no to mention the oven...?

You might as well not be wearing clothing if your wearing a blouse. The Sweater and Pants give the most warmth. With them, the coldest nights might give you level 2 of the cold moodle. Makes sense, no?

This is why this game needs to make a quick clothing addition that extends the range of the temperature ♥♥♥♥ they originally added. Plus more than one item to wear. Could lead to armor like football pads.

Not to worry, guys. I just found a way to warm my character. He caught on fire by the camp fire. Can't get any warmer than that.

Its rather easy to make your own type of warmer clothing. As long as you don't care about reusing the existing models. (as a MOD)

I had created a recipe that took a sweater and a vest with a needle and thread and made a nice warm coat. (using the sweater model of course)

Give a man a fire, and you warm him for a day
Set a man on fire, and you warm him for his entire lifetime

I laughed.



Too much, frankly.

FYI: Vest gives +5 temp, Sweater +15, blouse +6, pants +8, skirt +5, shoes +3.

So a sweater, pants and shoes give a combined +26 temp change.

In the summer, you wear the clothing that gives less + temp change.

Thanks. But I'm gonna restart in summer. Then there will be plenty of time to learn new skills and prepare for the winter.

How safe is antique oven? Like? Does it have negative effects like BBQ when inside or is it safe to have it inside? I have never used it before, so I am curious.

It is safe to use indoors. It comes with the smoke exhaust pipes just like a real wood stove has, that sends the harmful smoke outdoors.

The kitchen in this image has one in the back, center.

Because your a real man, when you put a skirt on, it still looks like pants.
