I recall being annoyed at the building system in the beginning but I'm not sure why. It's pretty easy once you get used to how it snaps n shit.

I've started my North map base. Moving all my stuff over from previous Ashlands save.

Parts that annoyed me with building when first trying the game was that I could never build the way I wanted to because things kept falling apart. It is never explained that you need stronger supports and you only get them later on. I mean, it is logical and makes sense, but when starting it feels very limited.

I heard they dropped the Cheat lock when using Dev commands now?

I have already restarted, but was curious.

It clearly states if you use a cheat code you will need to enable cheat mode via command past the devcommand prompt, and doing so does the typical bork to achievements.

🛠️ How to Override the Lock (Steam Only)
If you want to use cheats/mods but still keep achievements unlocked, developers added a tongue-in-cheek override command: [1]
    • Press F5 to open your command console.
    • Type devcommands and hit enter.
    • Enter the exact string:
      text
      yesiuseddevcommandsbutiwantmyachievementsanyway

Not really a big deal, but I had heard they changed. (It was helpful in the past with building supplies)

There were mods to remove the lock like 15mins after launch too, but yeah they added a command for it. It doesn't make much sense to prevent achievements for cheating "legally" when you can just cheat in other ways or unlock achievements with a program anyway, plus some mods aren't cheating to begin with so being flagged as a cheater because you installed a qol mod to fix some of the game issues is just bad design.

We got our first iron. I'm enjoying the game but still feel like I'm playing Minecraft without redstone or villagers.

We just got iron and are converting our meadows base to stone. 1.5x gathering has been amazing.
