A few suggestions and some bugs.
A few things that I would like to see added and/or improved upon. Please feel free to add to the list. These are just my personal views and opinions, and obviously your will be different. The game, for me, is very good, but there are a few things that I would love to see changed or implemented:

Animal husbandry:
Deer/cows for milk
Chickens/birds for eggs

Option to plant apple, coconut and banana trees to harvest.
Grape seeds (I haven't seen any)

Glass ceilings
Flat roofs

Trees and bushes to plant for decoration. Some with flowers, and different coloured leaves.

Instead of having to reset the entire cipher tree, just have the ability to reset the ones you don't want. It's a pain having to redo it all and get more links again.

Clearer instructions for everything, how things work and how to do things.

Deviants:

The deviant that you are carrying to be permanently out, and not have a limited time of use. You can only use one deviant, so it should be more useful and efficient than it currently is. Or, be out longer than it currently is.

I know that you can sell your extra deviants in Eteranland shop, but it would be more helpful if we could use extra deviants to level up one of the same type - 5x digby boy consumed to level up a specific digby boy, or something similar, or deviants should level up, when in their boxes. So if you get a level 1, you can put it in its box and it will level up on its own, if it's a territory or crafting one, and level up if it's in your backpack, if its a combat one
  
The option to trade deviants with other players.
The option to list deviants in vending machine.
The vending machine needs an overhaul.
All vending machines should be linked, so that you can buy other player's listings from your vending machine, no need to travel all over the place to see what they are selling or to buy from them.
It's painful not being able to see exactly what people are selling and then have to travel all over the world, and to go different worlds to find what you are looking for.

Recipes that use deviated ingredients don't spoil, or an option to tin or bottle them, so it doesn't spoil.

The skins for clothes are really ugly. I know we are in an apocalypse or whatever, but does everything need to be so ragged and dirty?
If we can craft gear, then surely it can look new'ish?
I am also not a fan of the designs. I would like some prettier options. Perhaps that is already in the works, I don't know.

Building can be a really painful experience. trying to get the pieces to lay the way they are meant to, is almost impossible, without losing your mind.
Also, it would be great to have an option, when relocating your base, for a temporary placement option, so you can have a good look around, before placing your base. I have placed my base a few times, and it's been placed poorly, with the ground inside the base, or the foundations floating in the air.

Different colour water tanks, would be really useful, so we can easily see which one has what in it, like purple for polluted, green for dirty, blue for sea water and white for clean water, etc.

Much larger storage containers. Having a bunch of little boxes everywhere is just ugly and annoying.
I personally like things to be neat and tidy, and aesthetically pleasing.
Have one large container for materials, like wood, scraps, etc. and another for ores and bars, and another for tools, but they all look different from each other and look like the container that would store such things.
Like a toolbox for tools, an ammo crate for ammo and grenades, etc.
Building is a big thing in this game, and so is aesthetics, so it would be really great if each storage container looked like it suited the stuff it stored.
Also, have them hold much, much more, so you don't have to have a load of them taking up so much space and looking ugly.

The "hug-in-a-bowl" deviant is just too rare. Only two spawn spots, and it's never there, no matter how many worlds I go to.
so rare, none are for sale, no matter what i am willing to pay for it. I understand and appreciate that some deviants should be rare, but this is just silly.

Fences need reworking. They are an absolute nightmare to build. Why do they not go into the ground as you build, like foundations do? Why do they go in a line up in the air? What's the point of that?
Also, I would like fence posts that don't need a foundation to build on
I would like to build a nice wall around my base, with a gate, but it's impossible to do so, with the current state of the building mechanics for the fencing.

A fishing dock for my base would be great and maybe a usable boat?

Fishing needs a bit of reworking. I don't see any difference in using all the various bait. it really does nothing at all. I just use one type and get the same fish.
The animations for baiting the hook and after catching a fish, just take far too long, and are really unnecessary.
A notification when your bait is gone would be helpful, so you're not standing there for 3 minutes during a fishing contest, waiting for a bite, but you get nothing, and I just assume my bait must be gone, or something. Wasting time isn't fun at all.

More furniture formulas. hardly any at all, so the designer's workstation isn't getting much use.
Basic white wallpaper, or paint for the walls and ceilings would be really nice. not one that drops, or you have to buy. just an option in the building menu.
I can understand selling all other types of decorations to make a profit, but a basic white paint shouldn't be too much of an ask. or it can just be super cheap?

More stairs options, extendable options for stairs would be very useful, so you can drag it as long as you need it.
A mirror of the spiral stairs is needed.
The ability to adjust the foundation's height, even if it's connected to another foundation, so we can have different heights of flooring.
The stairs don't fit well at all. specifically the ones that are at an angle. they don't fit in the middle of the wall so it's off to the side of the door, and not in the middle where the door is.

A few bugs:

When i log in, or have been to an instance task, my items in my storage wont stack until i take them out, then they stack in my bag, and i can put them back into storage stacked correctly.

If I make something like mince bait, using various types of meat, resulting in the exact same bait, no differences whatsoever, they won't stack at all.
This happens with other items too. If the result is the same, regardless of the ingredients used, the items should stack.
Some items won't stack, due to the end product having different stats, but this should not be the case, when the end product has the exact same stats.

Sometimes, when I log in, a few of my stations do not have any electricity and I have to connect them all again. I check the fuel, as I'm using the biomass generators and using wood lasts for over 100 hours,and they have plenty of fuel,
 but can't see any issues that would cause this.

In the building menu, the crescent foundations do not work well at all. they have to be placed against square or triangle foundations or you can't build it.
There is also only one direction for the crescent foundation. having an opposite one would be nice.

Water pipes needing tuning. When I'm aiming right at a pipe, it's highlighted but all other wires and pipes get deleted before the one I'm actually focused on gets deleted.
Then I have to find all the wires and pipes that were deleted and connect them again. extremely irritating.
Not all connected pipes show up when in building mode and pressing L to show pipes and wires. I can see sea water going into the tank, but there are no people showing that it's connected to the water pump
says the pipe is already connected, when no pipe is showing up at all. I can see all the pipes and wires for everything else, but for some, it simply doesn't show up
an option to switch the direction of flow, without having to manipulate the height of the pump (one used to pumping water upwards)


Perhaps I'm not understanding gear/weapon enhancements properly, but I am finding it impossible to locate more fragments to upgrade my items.
I'm just not finding them anywhere and I've looted all the towns and all the mystical crates.

My only issue is building in general. The top of my base has 4 hexagonal corners. Each corner roofed with triangular roof top pieces. Running into an issue now with no matter how I move, delete, change it up, I just cannot get it to fully connect on each corner anymore. Now it only lets me put 3 of those pieces leaving the other 3 spots empty. It absolutely refuses to let me do more when it use to work.

Heck, before the game released the triangular roof top pieces lined up perfectly. After it came on steam those pieces now clip through one another making it look like teepees on top of my base.

I had the same issue, so I used the fan sections instead. I'm on an EU server 2-phantom, if you want to come and have a look to get some ideas. Arima is my game name
