Are there plans to let us harvest plants in adventure mode anytime soon? (Or am I just being thicker than usual and missed how to do it?)

I have had several of my adventurers nearly dying from starvation already because they couldn't use those wild strawberries in any way other than indulging their pyromania. ;)

Yes there are plans.

Does "Reader" even do anything? I always take a few levels in it to make sure my guy isn't illiterate when I find a book but I haven't survived long enough to actually get to a book/tablet.

Im loving the excessive ambushes, and they are really ok once you thin the populations a bit.

I'm having no luck with this release. So far, started adventure mode hungry and killed an alpaca for sustenance. Cue every alpaca within miles to converge on my location and attack. After having pulled myself free from a pile of alpaca corpses, wandered into the nearest town. Every villager there attacked without provocation.  I'd love to explore the new content, but does that mean having to defend myself constantly from angry blood-avenging alpacas and their human sympathizers?

The alpaca was a member of their civilization, so you made yourself an enemy by killing it.  Make sure that the animals you kill are wild, and you should be okay.

the alpaca you attacked was probably a domestic animal belonging to the town

I fucked up a wolf's skull with my sword and killed him in a one-hit-wonder move and my tile exploded with wolf teeth that flew 10 tiles in all directions. Is that new?

I figured that was the explanation for the villagers. But still, alpacas and their ilk are prey animals. Kill one of them, and the rest should flee, not go all red in tooth and claw.

It appears there's a slight glitch with the naming of zombies. I had a necromancer reanimate a zombie that had previously been a historical figure. The name now appears as "Mebzuth Earthhelpful's corpsepeasant corpse".

*nods* Thank you, Footkerchief. For my part, I love that the necromancers can keep reraising zombies and the parts you hack off - the necromancers themselves aren't very formidable, so having to deal with the rolling tide of death makes them a real threat.

Oh, and a tip for other adventurers: Be very aware of what you take as a trophy from the creatures you kill. I foolishly carried the head of a night creature I killed with me as I charged into the necromancer's tower. Guess what killed me?

Axes are the most counter-productive weapon when fighting mummies/necromancers. I took apart a mummy's horde using the traps in the pyramid and my axe. Guess what happens when said mummy walks in the room to kick my ass himself?
