That's what you get from being inconsistent. I've never been on Aki but I agree that it should be dangerous. You could still kill sleepers, it's faster than making a new bow.

Ugh. Its gotten worse now. There are like 5-7 different animals in my location and there's not even 50 of them. O.o There's an increase in travelling, and people are actually doing stuff instead of worrying about the next shipment of healing food or huddling in the buildings.

I even built an entire GOVERNMENT with a goal to wipe out the animals and I only wanted the animals to go down because the players made it that way, not the game people.

Of all the places in cantr, very few places had as distinctive a culture as Aki, and that culture has been used before to prevent changes from taking place game wide, but now you have destroyed it to put in a goat with a stupid name.


Agar, can you please explain what you mean? I have done nothing specific to Aki, and I don't even know what animal you're referring to (since there are no goats of any kind on Aki).

The only changes I made that would have affected Aki were necessary numerical population changes that were made globally. The server can't handle any more than 650,000 animals, and as such, nearly 75% of the animals had to be eliminated from the game. I understand that Aki is broken and I intend to restore it to a dangerous state using methods that fit within the current server constraints.

If you want me to get rid of sinew, I can certainly do that, but there will have to be a clear consensus amongst the players that this is what you want.

Does that mean that as Fu becomes populated, animals will return to the interior locations? I'm not complaining, just curious, as I'm sure only a handful players are even aware of this.

Just out of curiosity, and I know this is kinda off topic, but when editing or creating new animals, do you just fill out a form and poof- change in Cantr?

Or is it more like a code that you go like

<blahblah>lalalalalala.312352. gdafgda

And how exactly are you going to fit it into server limits?

I have a charrie on Aki, and where I started there were animal worshippers. and theres also a group in constant struggle to keep animal numbers down due to the fact everytime someone leaves to get resources they get torn a new one by animals...so..I wouldnt say its totally gone...but more would make the struggle we're having more fun :)

It's been over a week now. Has anyone noticed any difference in the danger level?

That depends on where in Aki you are. AJS will do fine.

Wood Camp's screwed. I like it. :D

Now I just hope those animals chew up those annoying and badly role-played revolutionists.

I have a character on AKI in a town with few and noone is hunting.
We have few attackes from animals.
The old AKI is dead and gone.

What had worked has been fixed and broken. "you broke what worked"
AKI in now another cookie cutter island.
It has gone far too long to fix the fix. Too many characters have been able to advance (steel weapons/iron shields).
