One of the first things I did was kill the first boss! I guess the map is broken somehow then.

I have been cutting down core wood for several in-game days with only spawns being when I enter the Dark Forest. So it seems something is up with that.

Also at the start of the game, there where a lot of graylings and made the game very hard. I died in Meadows several times, until I got some gear, but now they almost never spawn.

Guess I'll live with it for now! Just build a huge 2 floor core wood building. Flattening the ground is a pain though.
