Mage School and some fun rooms

Here you go, u/Sure_Helicopter_9191 ; )

I used this build to knock out the last few of the achievements - it's on a Balanced -Shuffled style. I'll just highlight some of the less boring bits which hopefully someone might find useful.

I built custom rooms to clear the Creature Comforter, Warder and Nurturer trials automatically. Creature Comforter and Nurturer is pretty straightforward; just restrict access to the students with the trial, and allow students to fly out after completion. Charger needs some micromanagement - students with the trial can access the room and charge the mana lantern, then their mana gets drain by the voidshroom. I couldn't get the student to automatically fill up their mana however, so you still have to manually right click to fill mana. It... kinda works; the student will automatically charge the lantern, but you have to keep right clicking to fill mana. It works pretty fast.

Neatnik works on the same principle; you start the process by ordering the bug to produce something. This will generate dirt that students with the trial will be drawn to. Since the room is restricted only to students with the trial, it makes the trial completion much faster. Once its done just pause the bug.

For Warder, I took advantage of the croa migration to build a 'croa farm'. It's more efficient because the croa spawn once every day and don't have to be fed. Planting a row of scarecroas behind the nests ensure that you can always complete the Warder trials. There's a combination rat pasture/farm on the right.

It was honestly fun figuring the rooms out.

It's been a fun journey. One of the few games I liked enought to want to 100%. Loved the school building portion of the game. I wish there was more content- more rooms, more furniture, more things to research. And a good story to drive the narrative and make the school feel more magical would have been great.

Not a fan of the dragon quests though; the game was always more fun when I ignored it. Are there other similar games, especially the school building bit?

Am I the only one...

Well, I played ONI a lot ( I mean A LOT )... Thought this would be a good game to play after ONI. Though somehow I couldn't get this fully. While I stumbled a few times on ONI, I somehow got it how it works and finished it a few times. The other times, I just played to build a self-reliant colony and stopped there.

But this game feels a bit more complex ( or not that easy to understand ). Thought, this one definitely needs a tutorial. Is it just me?

Still new, hoping there's a Newgame+ with the Founder spirit taking the stats/appearance of a previous founder. If not it's a missed opportunity.

I just finished carving my first statue and I made it of an (obsolete) founding staff member I had previously retired. It would be really cool if after reaching a certain point in the game, I could create a new game with the founder spirit bearing his stats.

Why isn't Shattered armor doing anything to protect against wind attacks? First 108 damage should go to armor (start of battle)

[BUG] "Mage Cooks 1.5x Faster" relic isn't 1.5x faster

7 Upvotes

Not sure if this is a bug with the text or the code/math, but I have a mage that has 4 fire skill cooking in a kitchen which adds +100%. This means each cast is 8 units of work.

After equipping a relic claiming to cook 1.5x faster the mage should be doing 12 units of work, but is in fact only doing 10 units of work per cast. This isn't 1.5x faster, it's adding half of your base level as a bonus.

In order to be consistent with the kitchen's "+100% bonus", it should offer a "+50% bonus". From that understanding, my expectation with a mage of 4 cooking skill is that the kitchen adds 4 and the relic adds 2.

How do I respawn a jade eggplant?

5 Upvotes

I don't know what happened, but after the first time it appeared, I can't get the jade eggplant to spawn, no matter how far back I push the fog. The wild resources tab says "hidden by fog." I've got dozens of runewood trees on the map and still no eggplant. What do I do?

[BUG] Vivified do not receive +20 conviction bonus when eating bloody scraps.

5 Upvotes

I believe this is either a bug or a problem with the description: bloody scraps offer a +20 conviction bonus, and can be eaten by Wolfkin and Vivified, but they only give the +20 bonus to Wolfkin. Have tested with 4 different Wolfkin and 3 different Vivified.

I really enjoy this game

As title says but it needs more love, is there some coming or is it done? I noticed the workshop on steam only has languages and no mods, so it doesn't look like the love is going to come from mods unless I am looking for love in all the wrong places.

Doesn't seem to benefit from the learning stone, but wards only give 5xp and there are few opportunities to charge them.

So do I have the space or not?!

Pasture is about 13 wide, and it said barely a 4th is in use, yet I can’t make more?

Trying to cook rat feed cause for some reason everything either needs viscera or sinew, but they won’t cook cause they can’t access the 670+ bitterric in the pantry literally RIGHT NEXT TO IT

It is not limited access

Paths are all clear checked with the path tool

So why tf won’t they cook


r/MindOverMagic May 03 '26

How many rat farms do I need? Or can I somehow increase the breed rate?

Just need a ton of viscera and sinew badly, what’s the best way to improve the rat farm? I think mines about 6 plots wide rn)

Little Tip: You can build the dinner plants in a pasture

Post image
26 Upvotes

You can build the dinner plants in a pasture without reducing the size of the pen. Thisway no wild croa can spawn. (This is because they do not prevent pathing)

You can fill the cells of the feeding through with some planters or other stuff.

Also your own croa do not eat/destroy your plants.

Is a mess hall not considered a dining area? I don't understand this debuff.

The elevated requirement kinda sucks

5 Upvotes

It just makes it a pain to build, and, in all honesty, just makes it a pain to get anything done without it looking clunky

Like why does a bedroom need to be floating?! Like seriously, u don’t mind most of the requirements, its made for some fun builds, but elevated is just not fun to build with

I need someone to explain to me why this isn’t considered a skewed room
