nice general

>>159582717
What the fuck?

Just got this for PS4. Did I fuck up?

>>159615714
Probably. They're rebuilding it from the ground up since the other devs fucked up immensely and the game was full of bugs and behind schedule. I don't know its state right now, but I guess it hasn't changed.

>>159615714
yeah. controls are really meh on pad and I dont think console versions are up to date.

I'm about to join the army and I can't bring in any entertainment devices other than my phone. Is Terraria for Android any good?

>>159616390
No, it's not, but it's better than nothing.

Will this general pick back up with the new patch/update whatever it is?

I'd like to play with you guys as well, I tried playing on a /v/ server last night and between forced PvP, starting fresh, and having one guy freak out over a single gold coin and decide to start shooting everyone else, nothing got done

>>159622394

Talk to the guide and other NPCs after you do anything momentous like kill a boss, they give hints on how to progress next. Also, build more houses frequently to attract more NPCs

No. You just tap down once and you go down the hellevator. The rope is there to mitigate fall damage, too. When you're holding onto the rope and pressing down, you're falling at the same speed you'd fall without a rope, but with the additional bonus that you don't take fall damage.

You need grass on both sides. I think only 1 block of grass on one side works, too, but go with 2 for that sweet symmetry.

>>159817794
thanks man

>>159817691
If I remember correctly
trees need 3 pieces of dirt block below them, and at least 2 spaces next to each other to start growing
so when I build my tree farms in the sky I build them 3 blocks tall of dirt, and don't try to light it up with torches

Reminder that the fastest way to grind 200 fishing quests is this:
>set up a local multiplayer server with a world of your choosing
>connect to it with the character you want to use
>have your fishing gear ready
>type "midnight" in the server console
>pick up fishing quest
>complete it
>wait until 4:30am
>pick up quest
>type "midnight" in server console
>keep repeating last five steps
Typing "midnight" in server console changes world time to 12:00pm. The fishing quest changes at 4:30am. This means that if you change time to 12:00pm, then pick up the quest, you have 4.5 ingame hours or 4.5 minutes of real world time to complete the quest and wait for the next one.
Changing time to "dawn" via server console doesn't work.

>>159863865
>the fastest way to grind 200 fishing quests
>having to wait almost 5 minutes for each quest
What a retard. The actual fastest way to grind it is:
>fish a shitload of fish with one character
>deliver fish

>deliver fish
>repeat

both wrong

make new world
run to edge to find angler
get quest
do quest
if you have sundial use it
take second quest
complete it

there, 2 quests in one world
delete world make new world repeat
this is for the achievement
if you want specific hardmode angler rewards have fun with that. lol

How the fuck is running to the edge of the world, having to find two different fish each try and then waiting for the worldgen 100 times faster than just fishing for some minutes, randomizing a character and reloading the same world 200 times?

>>159864884
I never had a reason to until then, even now when I use ranged I still never have a reason to, the minishark just isn't that good.

How do you improve the Wall of Flesh?
Make it faster? New attack?
Also, I wish I could grind it for those stupid fucking emblems. The guide doesn't respawn fast enough.

>>159865208

Not that guy, but what if you get a shitty RNG and the daily quest makes you fucking have to create an artificial biome to get the god damn fucking fish i hate fishing quests fuck that angler

>>159865208
>its been proven as the fastest method. shows how little you play.
No, it shows how little attention I pay to faggot youtubers. Link the proof if it even exists.

>>159865340
it wont give you a biome quest fish for crimson if the world generated with corruption.

but if its a fish you really dont want/cant fish for just exit, make new world.

>>159865470
youtubers lol no
just use the steam forum for the game newb they will all say the same thing as myself.

you are using a mount/wings to rush to the edge right? otherwise its gonna take a shit ton of time, also do it on small maps no point on big maps.
also eventually you will get a sundial and a bucket of infinite water which speeds things up even more for fast pond to fish in, especially for biome types.

>>159865724
>just use the steam forum for the game newb they will all say the same thing as myself.
Good one, lad. Have a last (you).

>>159865470
here's your proof dumbass, just a quick seach and it shows up.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B68U5bazpqs

i didnt even bother with fishing till after i beat moon lord, decided to finish the achievements and asked on the forum and got the same answer from everyone.

stop trying to be a special snowflake thinking your method is right or even the fastest.

if you want to play slow and "legit" fine but don't think it means anything

>>159866464
That's your fucking proof? Let's make some maths, shall we? I'll use the times in the video as averages for the sake of the argument.
He takes 2 and a half minutes to deliver a single fish. That's 150 seconds. But you have to take into account that each delivery requires to generate a new small world, wich easily adds another minute or two. I'll be generous and add just one.
So 210 seconds x 200 deliveries required = 42000 seconds, or 11.6 hours.
With my method, you take less than 30 seconds to randomize a character, load the world, grab a fish from a chest and deliver it.
30 x 200 = 6000, or 1.6 hours.
However you have to fish the 200 fish beforehand, and in the video the guy needs 4 attempts of about 5 seconds each to get the quest fish, average of 20 seconds.
So 20 x 200 = 4000 seconds, or 1.1 hours.
You'll need 4 ingame days to fish all that and be able to deliver on time, so let's say that you spend each day 20 minutes fishing and 4 minutes delivering. That adds a little over an hour to the total time, but let's add 90 minutes instead for unaccounted setbacks. That's a total of 2.6 hours of fishing.
1.6 hours delivering + 2.6 hours fishing = 4.2 hours
11.6 hours with your method vs 4.2 hours with mine.
Nearly 3 times faster. And you also get rid of most of the RNG.
>i asked on the forum and got the same answer from everyone
So everyone in the forum is a clueless dick riding retard, including you. But I already knew that.

What can I do to improve the 2.5 perspective on this building?
When it's daytime the roof and walls are much more even in terms of lighting, but at night, the brick is unavoidably patchy in brightness.

If I use solid blocks it'll be even darker and won't make sense.

I realize that by adding it that way it appears that the regular part of the house is facing the complete wrong direction. You wouldnt see exterior windows inside there if it was a cutaway. What material do you think I should make the interior walls?
I'm thinking of using gray stucco painted white.

>>159898254
Tear it down because trying to force 2.5 in a 2D game is shit.

>>159898254
You could use solid blocks and have gemspark block backwall behind them to light them up.

>>159898569
To each their own. I get tired of making boring rectangles, and 2.5 is the best I can come up with aside from non-house like shapes.

>>159898603
I didn't know the walls would illuminate solid blocks in front of them. That sounds like the best idea, thanks!

>>159898254
What >>159898603 said, except if you don't actuate them you can't pass in front of them, and actuated it will looks like shit unless you paint everything black/grey/white, since all colors look like shit when actuated.

>>159898761
That's okay. I do not plan to walk in front of it anyway.
The realism is noticeably limited, and I'll just jump over my 2-story building.
Seems like wishful thinking, but it would be really cool if Terraria 2 had a perspective shifting ability to make it so you can either change layers to have exteriors and interiors, or to have a sort of complete 90 degree shift in the world like in Fez, though that would be a lot more complicated and would just be 3D with bad camera controls.

Smooth sailing from here on out, complete a few quests, fish a few crates, life is good now.

>>159917078
Look at rulick's builds for 2.5D stuff, the point is that everything must be calculated as to how far it goes into the distance, and it only really sort of looks good on small diorama-like sections where everything is equally as far and the diagonals are just dividing walls and such.

>>159930815
I think multiplayer expert mode scales up the more players. If it's 1x difficulty with one player, it'll be 2x difficulty with two players

Eye of Culthulu in Expert mode isn't undodgeable, you just need a ridiculous amount of preparation for what should be the 1st/2nd boss of the game

you're always either underprepared or overprepared except with the king slime, or in normal mode where you can dodge enough attacks that you can heal enough in-between damage

All right. Much better. Now you only need to work on the material variety and decorating it a bit more. I actually like those little stairs that go to the basement.

>>159931597
You can clentaminate a section of your jungle with dark blue solution, makes it a fairly big mushroom biome. Of course the weapon+ammo is expensive. You can equip ranged armor that reduces ammo consumption to help make it last longer

They just need buff accessories like the yoyo's imo. I agree that they're fun to use.

I'm trying to do one where each layer is what they really grow on, instead of the planter boxes.
I've rarely used potions in the game, except healing, but having an excess of ingredients will let me be more willing to make things like battle potions or thorns or ironskin

>>159937140
If debuffs were stronger, or enemies HP were higher, I can see letting you stack 2 or more debuffs with accessories for them. Enemies just die too quickly for debuffs all around, except maybe bosses. A straight damage increase isn't fun
how about additional bounces? 1.5x time out, 1.5x bounces, getting stronger with each successive hit. it's at its weakest at first throw but if it manages to bounce between 4-5 enemies, it's good. Like an event weapon, the frost moon or pumpkin moon it could murder in

>>159938143

The angler is a fucking asshole, holy shit.

I'm trying to play multiplayer over a LAN. Everything works and I connect, but I can see the other player jumping around jittery, with slight teleporting.
The actual actions, such as hitting enemies is in sync, but the movement looks really off. Is this normal for Terraria? I looked around on the internet and plenty of people are experiencing "lag" in multiplayer games on LAN or over the internet.
I turned frame-skipping off. Lighting is on "retro" and graphics on low. Messing with the process priority makes no difference.
Is there anything else one can do or is this normal for multiplayer games?

>>159949826
That is definitely not normal. I'm playing with one other guy over the internet and his movements are fine.

Medium for SP and you playing with a friend or 2. Large if you play with more than 2 other people.

>>159956621
I have always both liked this house, and hated it... and I have no idea why

I haven't played in a while. I remember there was a really tiny NPC house you could make that didn't even have doors, and was the bare minimum size. Could someone post that? I need to build homes for NPCs, but I want them out of the way before I make an actual home to house them.

>>159962476
>>159962567
Forgot to quote you.

>>159962567
>>159962681
I figured you meant to, because holy hell those tiny apartments are tiny.

Why all the platforms, though? I don't understand that.

>>159962743
One wood block gives you 2 platforms, so you can build more stuff and cut less trees. Platforms also count as doors, which is why you want at least one anywhere in your house if you don't want any doors.

>>159962874
I see, but why the three under/over each house? Is that the "door" for the houses? Or just an aesthetic thing?

>>159962942
They count as walls enclosing the house, which helps it reach the minimum size requirement, while also being walkable

>>159963161
Got it, thanks for clarifying.

>>159962942
No. Platforms count as doors and as solid blocks that define the shape of the house. Those paltforms define the boundaries of the house. make it smaller and the house will not be suitable because it's too small, make it taller and nothing will happen because you're unlikely to hit the maximum amount of blocks of a house. A square house with solid walls and a single platforms inside it will count as a valid house because of the platform, which counts as a door.

A tiny bit more info about the upcoming update.

Seeing some of this stuff in 3D is pretty neat. Corrupt Dryad better be in Terraria as well, because I'm not going to play Dungeon Defenders. It isn't that fun without friends, and even then it isn't that fun at all.

Is there a limit to how many critters can spawn at any time? I'm standing still with flower boots and a flail, trying to farm some worms for fishing, and I only get a few grasshoppers/worms at a time.

I've got a grass and jungle grass one set up next to one another, so I can get worms, grasshoppers, and all three of the jungle bugs. Thing is, I can only seem to get eight at most before needing to catch them. I've got a water candle set up above me, and I thought that affected critters.

>>159979932
There is a limit to how many things can be spawned, yes. I don't think it applies to just critters.

>>159980420
Well shit, here I was thinking I'd spawn like 50+ bugs. Glad to know I wasted all that time before asking. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

>>159980821
You can boost the spawn limit by using water candles and battle potions. Being in the jungle or under the effects of a Blood Moon will also boost the limit, but then you'd also have to deal with a bunch of mobs interrupting you.

>>159982193
why are they called "mobs" and not monsters nowadays

This is like the permanent delitilized ham and cheese tongue.

How the fuck are you suppose to fight BoC alone?
>eyes swarm you
>other enemies won't stop spawning
>area for moving around is very small

>>159992664
Brain arena is just 2-3 rows of wooden platforms. Since you can build on the background, it's easy to save some platforms by putting a space in between each one.
The best weapon I found for BoC early on is the Rotted Fork, which drops from the hearts you smash. Another spear type weapon would probably work, I'm not familiar with them though
it hits a few times in a row, and with each one pushes it back just enough that it won't touch you. You can pretty much stand in one spot when it's in its second form, and when you see it coming, click that direction, and it will get held off.

The first form was much easier when you could use molotov cocktails without needing Pinky gel. Now I'd say use beenades

>>159992664
First, seal off the little side passages. Then get a weapon with decent knockback. Spears or minishark with normal bullets work fine. The goal is to be moving back and forth so that when the brain teleports it isn't right on top of you, and the eyes have to fly at you in a straightish line, which will enable you to just knock them right back. Once they're gone and Brain starts doing it's little teleporty nonsense, just wiggle back and forth and try to keep and eye on which one looks the most solid.

>>159699818
All wood platforms must be replaced.
