Do materials found in the world respawn?

[gooska.]

Basically title. Was wondering if it is worth it to revisit the Pit for Silver Ore..seeing as I missed an achievement there.

Good question.

No, most things in the world are finite.

Would be cool if plants regrew after maybe 2 ingame weeks or something.
Also, while it makes sense that individual ore veins don't regenerate, it should also be possible to go into the Pit again to find more ore.

However you twist or design it, things won't make sense. What are all the other miners doing when there's no ore left? ;)

Regeneration of plants and new ore veines to pop up would be a grave inflation to progression and resource management.
Regrowable plants or infinite ore veines = inifinite income = buy all
And skills like prospecting would become totally irrelevant, too. As it would be a huge graphical effort to implement new veines constantly.
And if you go for roleplay and atmo? Just imagine that the other miners search for new veines.

Ok, I have somehow managed to leave the Pit with 100 silver ore. Didn't get the achievement. Am I missing something here?

Please report it ingame as a bug with f2, that way we'll get your save and be able to take a look at what's going on directly!

Thanks, I did, but I don't think it will be much help. As I spent at least 15 minutes doing other stuff afterwards :D but appreciate if you have a look-see.

Obviously regenerating stuff would be a challenge to balance, but with stuff regrowing after 2 or even 3 or 4 ingame weeks, it wouldn't actually make this much of a difference. I would expect most playthroughs to last not more than 4 ingame weeks.

Obviously some people would cheese the system by sleeping constantly, but that would be a very small minority, and since it's a purely single-player game, I don't really see the issue.

I'm also sour that I only got like a tiny bit of silver from the Pit, since I failed hard at the minigame, and that one ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ took 10 silver from me and the other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ charged me 10 for sleeping in that bed. So when I left I still had like 6 silver...

If I would have known stuff doesn't regrow I would have probably loaded a savegame. Anyway...

Ok, this answered my question.
Then I guess I gotta be very conservative in what tools I craft and use if the materials are finite. Things like nets, traps, throwing knives ect. I use those a lot. And also now I know not to sell any mats I dont use.

[Slin]

just implement a little amount of regrow with every chapter. Like some respwan of monsters.

This kind of suck as this means you can run out of ammo for your bow and have no means of replenishing your ammo. :/ If you wanted to do a ranged build.

havent played with a bow yet, but didnt have any sort of ammo problems with slingshot.
theres a trinket which grants you 33% chance of not using ammo on a shot and focus skills dont use ammo, they are free use so to speak.
in addition, you can find plenty of ammo in the world, buy it from merchants and reloot it from slain mobs.
i crafted nearly 200 silver slingshot ammo and in the end i probably used 20 to 30 of them cuz of free skill use and regaining it from mobs.

If they wanted you to have infinite ammo, there would be no ammo count in the first place.

Some of your ore would've been obtained before entering the pit, so you wouldn't have mined at least 100 from within.
