ABOUT Settlers - sandbox server for NW

Hit ♥♥♥♥ with hammer

Watch this vid for very basic yet proper house building instructions https://youtu.be/NKtdwPFzcdo

Currently testing, have patience with bugs and unfinished stuff.
Spawn as russian sapper to build stuff. If you attack bots they will attack back, hit them with construction hammer to calm them down and turn them into your workers (producing wood per 5 min. intervals).

TO USE LOCAL CHAT: login with password "settlers" this will give you option to use I key for local chat so only people nearby can hear you. In case I button doesn't do anything for you on first joining the server, just respawn once and it'll work.

TO CLAIM LAND: Hit uncostructed gabion with big hammer to build a family table and to claim a plot of land around the table. It will only work if far enough from other claimed land. Only you and your family members can build on claimed land. To invite others to your family, have them stand very near the table, then use the table and choose F2,F1 (1 row formation order).

BUILDING: hit sapper props with construction hammer, small axe or large hammer.

small hammer: wall, floor, ladder, gabion, door, pacifies bots
small axe: window wall, trapdoor floor, rudder, winch
large hammer: doorway wall, raft, chest, family table
large axe: destroys unconstructed props
rake (partisani): farms earthwork

(all props below are unconstructed versions unles specified otherwise)
Wall = plank + small hammer
Windowed wall = plank + small axe
Wall with doorway = plank + big hammer
Floor = large chevx + small hammer
Floor with trapdoor = large chevx + small axe
Raft for ships = large chevx + big hammer
Ladder = small chevx + small hammer
Ship rudder = small chevx (built on top of raft) + small axe
Chest = small chevx + big hammer
Gabion(constructed) = gabion + small hammer
Winch = gabion + small axe
Family Table = gabion + big hammer
Door = gabion(constructed) + small hammer (note the gabion center is where the door hindges will be, also note the door handle will be on your left at the moment of gabion creation)

FARMING:
Current primitive version: sapper must place an earthwork (can do it only on his own land) then spawn as partisani and hit earthwork with rake tool, the more you hit the more food the land owner will get per 5 minute turns. You might have to use the shovel (partisani) to dig up earthwork if it spawned too much below the ground.

SKY SHIPS:
1)Hit unconstructed large chevx. with large hammer to get a raft. Mind the ship forward direction will be to your LEFT at the moment of chevx creation.
2)Place unconstructed small chevx. on top of the raft where you want rudder to be, but you should be facing backwards from ship forward direction. Hit small chevx with small axe to make a rudder
If all went fine, using the rudder will start the ship. If you stand left or right from rudder, it will steer left or right.

RECENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

Read about new server features and updates

25 July, 2016 - [BRE] Morgan | 0 Comments

We are not quite there yet, and there will be a new update very soon, but so far the server is starting to look like a real game where you have to do stuff to survive, rather than just build on and on.

UPDATES:
-Many bug fixes (thanks 59th regiment for joining previous verion server in great numbers and helping me spot the bugs)
-LOCAL CHAT - yes, now you have the option to use the "I" key to talk to people who are nearby, rather than spam the global chat. To enable this option you must join the server with this password: "settlers" In case the "I" key doesn't do anything for you, just respawn once.
-Bots that you claim as your workers (by hitting them with construction hammer) will now also follow your commands.
-You actually need wood to build now. Currently the only way to gather wood is to claim workers and wait for them to produce wood (in 5 minutes periods). You can wood back by destroying unconstructed props.
-The unconstructed pontoon bridge (spikes) will cost 100 wood, and will give you 100 wood back when you hit it with small axe, this is one way to give wood resource to other players.
-You also need food. Currently food is gained by hunting for birds or working the land (see "farming" section). In case of farming the food goes to the land owner.
-When killing a bird, the food is given to the player who is nearest to the bird, but in next update it will also work for bots controlled by you, so you will be able to use bots as sort of hunter's fetch-dogs
-You can build decorative flowers now as well :P

UPDATES PLANNED FOR NEXT FEW DAYS:
-More family managing options (family table options), ability to make other players head of family (currently, as soon as family head leaves the server, the family table disappears and land needs to be reclaimed)
-Ability to share all resources (very high priority, as there is no point in having one family member do the hunting when he can't share food, or work on someone else's land when the land owner can't share the food)
-Use chest for storing items, or turn them into store that sells your resources (hence coins come into play)

GENERAL UPDATES PLANNED:
-Upgrade "family" faction into "house" (House of Playername) and eventually a "town" (the Playername Town)
-More detailed farming with ability to spawn plants
-More clear class differences, developing of special abilities for characters
-Random events where hostile bots might spawn that you need to defend from (giving you more reasons to actually build houses with walls)
-And much more that I could write ages about. As long as players show interest I will continue developing this.

If you feel like testing server is up, have fun and please remember this is still alpha stage. If you spot any bugs or have suggestions do let me know, thanks.
