Couple of questions for new player

[gazza2929]

-How/can you fix items?

-Am I right in saying when your swimming and run out of stamina, you just respawn?! Unless it's bugged I find this an odd choice fair enough if your diving etc, but just normal swimming?

- Games doesn't pause, if I go to do something else with the game on. Does the passage of time have negative effects?

I don't think you can. They appear to just break.

Correct. When you run out of stamina in the water (surface or diving) you are insta-killed. You don't even get a few seconds of health drain before it happens like in most games.

I haven't found any yet, especially since you don't need to eat and drink to manage a hunger/thirst type mechanic.

As a matter of fact, passing time helps with planted seed growth and waiting for plants to grow in your ecosystem(s).

That's really annoying you can't repair things. Especially with the inventory load already being pretty bad with still including your equipped items.

I really don't get the swimming mechanic, just have it where you can swim. Just not fast swim or dive when you run out of stamina.

Yeah I thought that too, if anything it helps thr player

You can most likely get upgrades to swimming later (Not that far in it at the moment.) It's just not something you want to do much of at the start. I got a glider upgrade last night from my parachute and it was a night and day difference.

One thing I noticed about inventory, is your storage boxes seem to be accessible for crafting within the village "biome". So you dont have to keep everything on you. You also get 1 medium storage box right at the start when you build the farm tower, with ability to build boxes unlocking not too far behind.

Your right about crafting!
