TUTORIAL SECT - Ep 04 Guide AMAZING CULTIVATION SIMULATOR

[@juiciestknives4992]

Didnt think I'd get this many episodes in, but your just very clear and informative. Appreciate it a lot.

[@IlMeastro]

Love your video's man. Keep it up. I laughed so hard when you said in the end (paraphrasing) ; "So now she's wielding an artifact and her mood is ok". Then you show the mood screen and her mood turns out to be horrible haha. Scorched, slept outside, in rags, aching all over in a filthy environment, totally pissed off and giving her some magic wood should fix that haha. Totally fits the 'feng shui' of the game. It's no big deal ofcourse just made me laugh (which is good!). Thanks!

[@Ic0nGaming]

I honestly didn't even see all those mood debuffs you say here. Tunnel vision :D Thanks for sharing a laugh and have fun mate - cheers =)

[@PandaPowerable]

I thought I would never be able to grasp this game, but after playing along while watching your vids I'm doing it and having a great time! 🙂

[@Innominate666]

You can bait the monster in corner and have the mysterious cultivator to attack him. He will be knocked unconscious and you can loot him, he will then awake and still protect you less his gear,talismans and cultivation manual 😛

[@ddeathshade]

There was a lot of stuff covered this episode, but the most useful to me was the keyboard shortcuts and the types of qi your cultivator can absorb as well as which items are best for qi absorption/gathering. I don't quite get how the cultivation array is supposed to work either but, the gist of it is that as long as we copy the basic design and get the right type of qi emitting item on the right type of pedestal it just works.

[@hawkanhawks786]

On standard settings I got a cold winter as a first winter. This was the first time ever playing and it got to -50C. I only survived due to talismans and winter fur clothing xD

[@Louigi36]

My attempt of rationalising why those weird corners in the pedestal arrangement still count as "range 4": It makes logical real world sense. it's the closest you can get to a circle when using a grid. In real life, that square would be fully within the radius. This may either be hardcoded into the game, i.e. that the exact shape of the affected area has been drawn out by the dev for each range number, or it could be that the game internally calculates distances as actual numerical values. Let's say each square represents a meter, then going 3 squares up would be a distance of 3 meters, but 2 diagonal squares would be a distance of 2 times the square root of 2, which is slightly less than 3 meters. This second interpretation would make sense from the perspective that something like movement isn't strictly limited to the 4 cardinal directions either, so the game has to be able to differentiate what a certain "speed" means when travelling in different directions, which would have to be governed under the same logic. Travelling one square diagonally needs to take slightly longer, but nowhere near twice as long, if you want the movement to look smooth and consistent. Edit: Come to think of it, this means the "rounding error" you speak of is actually in our own heads when we assume that a diagonal square is the same distance of two full squares.

[@andreaswestermoen4592]

like DnD does for fireballs: first diagonal move counts double, second single. (so diagonal distance is counted as 2-3-5-6...

[@ruukinen]

The corner squares center would be withing the radius, to be accurate. The edge of the corner square of the 3x3 is 4.24 tile lengths away so it wouldn't work out if the entire tile had to be withing range.

[@Stormsson]

Thank you for your videos, they are very clear and helpful!

[@justinbachor7776]

Lots of good information for starters. Fantastic video!

[@alexwhitter7956]

your videos are a big help, thanks

[@Luxiste]

weird range is because trigonometry

[@lathspellsolannis7942]

It's because the definition of distance. Ic0n counts with taxicab distance, but the game probably uses Chebyshev or Euclidean distance.

[@AmishMinister]

Thank you for these guides

[@Xix1326]

lol Took me a minute to realize you were saying pedestal. Yeah, English sucks. That word has emphasis on the first, i.e., PED-es-till. The rule is emphasis on the penultimate but there are a LOT of words that break that rule. Polyglot language. (Try reading Beowulf, considered the first English literature, in the original. You'll be able to read it better than I.) Really love these vids and I absolutely will play this after finishing the series.

[@philm.8622]

Maybe it's an obvious result, but I'm still surprised at how quickly I've fallen behind on the run I started in parallel to this one. I'm not copying, but comparing while listening to this during my own play. You're over here dabbling in cultivation, while I'm still trying to sort out crafting stations and building layout. Guess that's the difference in familiarity and game knowledge though.

[@Ic0nGaming]

Well what you cannot see on these videos are the many hours of failing and not understanding a thing I spent BEFORE I did record this :D ACS takes a while to get into, but at some point you'll get behind it - and it's a lot of fun =)

[@uncleaungzayyafromburma985]

Thanks for the video

[@TOTOPO]

И вот спустя 300 часов игры я узнаю что зажав шифт можно экипировать и есть разные вещи. И ведь я скорее всего пытался это сделать, но что-то не сработало и я был уверен что шифт не создает очередь из задач.

[@subhankhan9563]

How do I make a bedroom and a cultivation room for A cultivator with The reincarnation law?

[@Ic0nGaming]

You will need a water room for the cultivation. Use Ice Essence bars (made out of 99 Ice Crystal Ore + 1 Beast Blood) to create some Qi gathering Items. Also beware: Just like a fire room this one will get murderously cold. So you have to equip your cultivator with enough cold resistance. Talismans, Demon Hide clothing and such help a lot. Once they are well developed enough they can tank lower temperatures quite easy. And for the room: You will need a Wooden Bed in a water elemental environment. You can achieve this by putting a water vat right next to the bed (preferrably out of Water elemental material, wood will do too)

[@zigzera7757]

Also if the room is big enough there’s a limit to range of fengahui and Qi gathering so you can add some fire type resources to balance temperatures I believe it’s 4 tiles. Alternatively I normally put fire and water gathering items in the same room with a 4 tile gap makes a big room but temps balance each other

[@kapitantaryfa]

i am not sure if mixing sleeping and eating in a room is a good idea, dining requires door to the west and sleeping to the south. then again not sure how important it is, i am still very confused by this game:)

[@zacharyrose4120]

I'm pretty sure as long as one door is on the correct side you're good. I could be wrong though

[@nutme]

The stove its the one which demands the door to the west, the tables has no requirements.

[@h1zen340]

@@zacharyrose4120 good which way? its like someone telling u the food was delicious, but what food???

[@sepulchral.]

Good info.

[@TowerBooks3192]

I got a quick question. So basically I picked True Sun Refining which is the fire type law. So basically I tried to do a setup like you did here but I made all displays of wood and placed a lot of spiritwoods on them. Now my question with elements is should I match the cultivation room furnitures with the element of the law (e.g fire law therefore I need fire items) or the element that feeds into the element of your law (e.g in my case and fire law cultivating in a room full of wood to feed the fire)?

[@TowerBooks3192]

@@Ic0nGaming Thanks! I greatly appreciate it.

[@JJokerMoreau]

You say 'pedestal' in a very, very bizarre way.

[@Ic0nGaming]

Well as a non-native speaker I often have to improvise with words I've only read and never heard. And while I do check up pronounciations whenever I notice I have no clue, there's still words like this one here where I don't even notice a weirdness in the pronounciations.

[@JJokerMoreau]

@@Ic0nGaming Hey man, no problem. I lived in Romania for six years and it took 2 years of bullying before I started to say the word "three" as "three" instead of "free". (Romanian has a problem with the TH sound and tends to say it as F).

[@Ic0nGaming]

@@JJokerMoreau The TH and F thing is also quite common here in Germany too, so I can relate =)

[@mykeh8697]

hey hey people

[@RinaSC1]

Sseth here

[@gotgunpowder]

God, that cultivation room is so not symmetrical. good vid tho.

[@Demoriel100]

Yeah that triggered me so hard. Not very feng shui :D

[@fireghost1994]

I love the rich content of this game. However i hate its mechanism. You cannot assign a person to do a specific task.
