Hmm great suggestions!

However this is more like a realistic-ish wilderness, Where...Icecream cannot be made w/o milk....Or wizardary is not existant for the most part...

However... creative!!!!

What about animal parts?

Basic -
Bone
Feather
Animal Skin
Teeth

One Item -
Bone - nothing
Feather - nothing
Animal Skin - Leather
Tooth + Tooth - nothing

Double Item -
Bone + Bone = Sturdy Bone
Feather + Feather = nothing
Leather + Leather = Thick leather

Stick + Feather + Tooth = Arrow
Sturdy Bone + Vine = Bone Bow
Thick Leather + Thick Leather + Vines = Thick Coat (vines are a draw string to hold it up on your shoulders)

Just some basic ideas, working on my map so can't sit here for 30 minutes thinking of a random assortment of natural items dropped by animals.

Good Idea

Thats a good idea, Would the Players Have some kind of home base, like a tent?
Cause, if they dont, you could make a tent with like 4 animal skins and 4 sharp branches.

New Elements!

Basic -
Dirt
Water Droplets

Better -
Dirt + Dirt = nohting
Water Droplet + Water Droplet = Water
Dirt + Water = clay
2 sticks + clay = bucket
Bucket + Water = Bucket of Water

Complex
Stick + Stick + Large Branch + Leather + Leather = Teepee
Clay + Clay + Large Branch + Large Branch = Adobe Base
Clay + Rock + Adobe Base + Leaves + Leaves = Adobe

An adobe is a clay house mainly made by Indians which used leaves as floor matting and clay to build the walls. The Adobe should have some advantage over the hut like a +hp regen aura-

Effect Name : Safe
Effect Description : You are near a secure home, relaxing you.

I'm on a roll with these survival ideas! Well partially due to the fact that I myself was creating a "unique" survival until I realized there is like 10 others of them. I just quit because I want something new...

Better -
Rock + Rock = Stone
Stone + Stone = Sharpening Stone
Sharpening Stone + Rock = Sharp Rock (destroys the sharpening stone)
Large Branch + Sharp Rock = Large Spear
Large Spear + Fruit = Poison Spear (does a poison damage)

Complex -
Twigs + Twigs + Leaves + Leaves = Leaf Umbrella (prevents any effect from Rain, which makes sense) Umbrella is destroyed after 5 minutes.
Twigs + Twigs + Sharp Rock + Sharp Rock = Spikes (can be layed where you choose which deals damage to anyone who passes over them)

How about branch + sharp rock equals axe? Regular branch, that is, not large branch.

Hmph... i think my idea of 2 animals skins + 4 stick should make a tent is better..., plus you wont have to make a new model.

Who has to make a new model? Import one from wcsear.ch, and plus it would add a unique feature from all other survival maps. There is only one reason people play a map, and that is because it is more unique and fun than others of the same genre. Sure you could go for a completely fun map that is cliche to the 100 others. That would simply make yours as popular as the next in line. However I'm not saying by introducing the adobe by itself that would make you better than the other maps, but something unique to remember the map for would.

Thats true, having custom Models gives the map a certain allure, maybe thats what my map needs....

Yes, custom models do add a sense of originality to the map, but then do not focus around the models, they are just part of the equation. The originality of items, plot, and gameplay are also major factors. So if you have a choice between the easy cliche choices or the slightly more complicated, yet novel concepts, take the latter always. Like the adobe (not bragging about my idea) but it is not only probably going to have a custom model but it is not in any other survival that I have played. Now if you could make a nice loading screen that describes why you are on the island (plane crashes are cliche so please don't do that, I figured out noone wants that with personal experience). Currently I am brain dead but if I do think of a good idea on a plot then I'll be sure to inform you.

Way to advertise your thread in another persons lol.
Anyway I was thinking a plot something along the lines you are each kidnapped (dunno someway to get them in possession of the scientists) and put into a test area where you are observed or whatever. Just an idea to start you plot off on, dont flame me I know it sucks..

Actually me and my partner already have an idea:

You are sailing your way from someplace to someplace and about half way there, your loud and noisy crewmate gets into a arguement with the captain.
After the captain starts arguing back all of your crewmates start going against him and eventually, The captain casts you all off the boat. Stranded in the middle of the ocean your crewmates spot land off in the distance.

Might improve on it later

Not bad, what I was talking about when I said something new was like something different than the stranded on an island... Whether it be boat wreck or plane crash, just think of something :) Hell a time machine into the past before any civilization would work too

So pretty much my idea plus:

When you finally find land you and your crewmates find a strange looking portal. Being curious as all people naturally are (and more so with your crew) they all hold hands and go thru the portal to find themselfs in the PAST!

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
