I haven't gotten to see either pack yet since downloading them, but can't wait. So many great world prefabs being put out.
I was wondering about the fire assets. Are they always on? Would be great if they were interactable, where you stumble upon old camps of either another civ or stranded survivors from other races or factions (should be many in this universe's mythos as there are many planets colonized)... but be able to click on them to either toggle flames off/on... or add fuel to start them up, etc. The fish rack and cookers would be great to use as well.
You know what.. I was talking with Glaceon04 about something just like your setup here. An alternate start... crash or wash up on a lil island and you're in "primitive" mode. Tech level 0 or perhaps Tech Level -2 and you work your way up with sticks/stones etc until you meet requirements to leave the island and then an event happens and you wake up adrift near a lifepod (where you'd start the normal game). During primitive mode on the alt start area, you'd have some other challenges to meet as well and you'd use/make some of the items you have as deco on the isle already, including bone racks for hanging meat to dry, hide from skinning and tanning etc. Seems like you can make a mini-pregame modlet with it.
Great stuff and a move in the right direction for all kinds of possibilities.
Thanks for the feedback! To answer your question, the fire assets are interactable in the sense that they can be extinguished. Once out they cannot be relight though.
On your alternate start idea, its an amazing idea. It would make the game so different at the start and would probably make the experience so different, even after you start the main game. Unfortunately, I can currently only make Terrain and Structure mods. If in the future I do learn coding I would definitely try to make something along those lines
