Shopping list for surviving summer [duplicate]
Things that let you stay cool while moving:
Melon hat - slows overheating
Straw hat - slows overheating
being wet - slows overheating
Parasol or umbrella - slows overheating
Staying under trees where possible -slows overheating
Chilled Amulet - no overheating, must be micromanaged or you freeze
Ice Cube hat - no overheating, makes you wet
Thermal stone that has been placed in either a icebox or near an endothermic fire - no overheating till it runs out
Eating ice -lowers body temperature Using a luxury fan -lowers body temperature
Summer is the same is winter: going away from base is hard due to temperature. Being stationary is easier, but boring. In my opinion, the ice cube is the way to go.
Lawton gave a good list of things that help. Let me add some advice:
Prepare your base, just as you do for winter.
- Make sure you have a science machine & alchemy machine
Get some much needed items
- Gears, for an ice box.
- Ice, atleast 10. Put it in the ice box.
- Gold and stone, for the ice cube and the endothermic fire pit.
- Gather enough rocks (atleast (2+5)*3 = 21) for the stationary endothermic fire pit.
- Grab some nitre while you're there.
- A thermal stone is recommended (as is for winter). Put it in the ice box.
Secure a food supply
Summer, as winter, disables certain things. Grass & twigs will wither.
