Hey everyone! Sorry if it seems I haven't been paying much attention to this, but I've been on vacation and any time I could spend updating has been scarce.
Updates should resume Sunday or Monday, since I should return to a "normal" schedule then!

I arrived home this morning, and I said there'd be an update the Monday I got back. Here's one as promised!
You deal 4 damage to one of the Club Mooks!
Done! Your Cobblestone, Gravel and Tar have been stored in the chest. All that remain are your weapons and equipment, as well as the Ankylosaur bone.
You chip further at the fossil, revealing another bone! You might be unveiling a leg or foot structure here...
Huh, is that so? All of the mainline "canon" games before this (DTG1, DTG2, and DTG0) gave people a lot of room to be creative, and even made it necessary in some instances (damaging the Godmodder). Quite a few of the newer games incorporate this as well.
The Acolyte isn't here right now, so creativity is somewhat optional- you can supplement your damage with items instead. Creativity might not be something you're born with, but I promise that you will get better as long as you practice.
If you're going to restrict yourself to such a rigid ultimatum, though, be my guest.
(Googling in progress...)
After a wiki walk, I managed to find out what grout was! I'll just include it in the cost of your Smeltery.
You create an additional Furnace out of your Cobblestone reserves, and turn it into a Smeltery with Gravel, Sand, and Clay! (4 units for Gravel and Sand, 1 for Clay)
The Smeltery acts like a furnace, but processes ores specifically twice as quickly at no extra fuel cost.
Alright, gotcha. Thanks for being honest about it.
You deal 2 damage to one of the Well-Armored Mooks! Much of the Liquid Nitrogen just bounces off their armor.
Ah, I see what it'd do. 5% might be a bit small, so I'll buff it to 10% per level.
You grab two stray pieces of Iron ore and throw it into the first Furnace!
You deal 4 damage to the Well-Armored Mook- jut barely enough to kill it! That armor is surprisingly lightsaber resistant.
Alright, I'll put it in as an item.
You Paralyze one of the Elite Pistol Mooks!
...Huh... Well, I've gotta give you something for writing. You deal 6 damage to one of the Well-Armored Mooks! That pickaxe goes right past their armor. You've been quite lucky!
Welcome to the game! Your PC has been added.
Your planetary bombardment deals 4 damage to two of the Sword Mooks!
Wow, your pod makes it past both Well-Armored Club Mooks' armor! 3 damage to both of them!
The Snipers really aren't the most important target, so Persecles is probably going to ignore them. Regardless, +1 to hacking progress!
Just a warning, your Overload is currently at 20! Charges won't go though while this is active!
A free damage boost would be pretty powerful, and again, getting a free charge slot that charges quickly by just playing the game is also pretty powerful, at least at this stage of the game. The Mana Crystal stays as is!
You deal 2 damage to two of the Well-Armored Club Mooks! There are both Powered Axe Mooks and Well-Armored Club Mooks on the field. Both of their armors block the attack!
Hmm, maybe you unsubscribed?
You charge your charges.
Oh, wait, you attacked the Mortar Emplacement last action. I'll calculate that now.
You deal 10 damage to one of the Mortar Emplacements!
This attack, you deal 8 damage to the Mortar Emplacement, finishing it off!
I see I didn't get your first action this round. This has been fixed!
You deal 2 damage to one of the Mortar Emplacements and 4 damage to the other!
========[End-of-Turn Events]========
Ninjatwist_ uses Bulletstorm on the Mortar Emplacements! Unfortunately, all of his shots go completely wide! Ninjatwist_ throws his weapon at the Mortar Teams in frustration, dealing 4 damage!
The Wary Souls deal 8 damage to one of the Sword Mooks, swarming and killing it!
Major Persecles disengages from the Club Mooks and fires his Shotgun at the Mortar Emplacements before they can unleash another barrage. 12 damage dealt! This kills both attendants of the weaker Mortar Emplacement!
Ed the Undying deals 4 damage to one of the Elite Pistol Mooks!
The Argynth Scouts hack the terminal, giving a +3 in total to hacking progress!
The living Mook Mortar fires another shell at the Wary Souls! This one misses, but deals splash damage! 4 damage to three Wary Souls!
The Sword Mooks continue to attack their opponents! Two our of seven Sword Mooks score crits! They deal 21 damage to the Wary Souls and 5 damage to an Argynth Spear Carrier!
The Mook Leader deals 3 additional damage to an Argynth Spear Carrier!
The Powered Axe Mooks deal 29 damage in total to the Argynth Spear Carriers!
The Well-Armored Club Mooks smash Ed the Undying for 14 damage, but the Guardian Crystal gets in the way and takes the damage instead!
The Elite Pistol Mooks hit 4 shots with their Pistols, even though rerolls! Jeez, no one seems to be hitting with pistols today. 3 damage dealt to two Argynth Arbalests!
The Elite Mook Snipers fire upon Major Persecles, dealing 8 damage! One of them scores a crit!
The Spear Carriers deal 24 damage to the Powered Axe Mooks, creating two new corpses!
They also deal 12 damage to a Well-Armored Club Mook, skewering it through the gaps in its armor! They also deal 4 damage to another, which is luckier with its armor.
The Arbalests deal 16 damage to the Elite Pistol Mooks, killing one of them!
The Tonbogiri deals 3 damage to four of the Sword Mooks!
The Paralyzed Elite Pistol Mook can't move!
The Elite Pistol Mook regains its footing.
The Elite Pistol Mook snaps out of Paralysis!
========[Sidequest Events]========
The Mining Turtle keeps mining, producing 2 bits of Cobblestone and 2 bits of Iron! It looks like it hit another Iron deposit.
The Furnaces burn more Tar to produce additional Iron Ingots!
The CHICKEN produces two more eggs!

...smelterys double yield, not speed. though i guess this one is smaller so it might not work...
I see if I can make a proper smeltery once I have enough resources. if so, I craft a stone hammer with 2 stone and 2 sticks
([_][C][_]

then start mining stone with it, turning it into gravel (because when you mine stone with a hammer, it turns into gravel, in the mod gravel comes from)

Say you're me and you're in math class,
and you're supposed to be learning about logarithms,
which you figure is probably something
to do with avant-garde percussion performances.
But every time you try to pay attention,
you find that your teacher's explanations of logarithms
inspires nothing but a bit of performance art involving
drumming on wood.
Anyway, your teacher gives you a dirty look.
So you stop drumming and start doodling.
You feel a need for motion, excitement,
so you decide to do a flip book on the corner of your notebook.
It's pretty easy because the paper is thin.
You can trace the previous frame,
modifying it just a little.
And if you really want to get into the Zen
zone of doodle bliss, you can make each new frame
be modified according to some simple rule like,
keep adding one new petal around a spiral,
or add another dot in the next place in the spiral.
Or how about, keep making the squiggle squigglier.
But what does squigglier really mean?
Like you could just increase the curvature of the squiggle,
or you could make it squiggle more between the squiggles.
You want to figure out an exact squiggle rule
so that you can really get into the squiggle zone.
So you discretize the squiggle into a zigzag line.
On the next layer, you could just deepen the zag,
or you could put a new zigzag on each old zig and zag.
Or maybe zig's too good to zig zag,
and zag's too good to zag zig.
So the next would be, zigzag zag zig, zigza-- wait, no.
That was a zag, and those get turned into zags zigs.
So it should be zigzag, zag zig zag zig zig zag.
And next, zig zag zag zigzag, zig zig zigzag, zag zig-- wait,
was this a zig?
Maybe if we put it all onto some sort of reference diagram,
that generates each new pattern based on-- No!
This was supposed to be about mindless
zigging in the squiggle zone.
This is unacceptable.
So maybe just pretend each time you get to a new stage,
the old path is all just zigzag zigzag zigzag zigzag.
And to keep it all neat and orderly,
you decide to try to make all the lines the same length,
always with right angles between them.
Here we go.
[SINGING]
Wait, how did this-- Huh.
What if we tried starting with three lines?
Zig zag zug.
OK.
So then each zig should get a zig zag zug,
and each zag a zug zag zig?
And then the zug gets, well, maybe it just
goes back and forth, whether it goes
on the inside or the outside.
OK, wait now where did it start?
And everything's running into itself, and getting bigger,
and doesn't fit on the paper.
OK, maybe if it were a little more open
it wouldn't run into itself.
Say like, half a hexagon, so you can
keep all the angles perfect.
And then trapezoids in and out.
Yeah, this is totally going to work.
Lookit.
In fact, like this, you could even make it go inside first,
and back and forth, and it wouldn't run into itself.
Next, you could make it go even closer together here,
and still not run into itself.
Except that means you'd have to start on the outside this time.
But that's OK, because next time you can go on the inside again.
And now it's an easy pattern.
Trapezoid in, trapezoid out, trapezoid in, trapezoid out.
Back and forth until the last trapezoid in.
And then the next time starts with trapezoid out.
Although it's hard to tell what's
in and what's out now that it's getting so squiggly.
So you're just focusing on going on one
side of the line, and then the other.
And wait.
This looks familiar.
Is that, Sierpinski's triangle?
The fractal you get when you put a triangle inside a triangle,
and then triangles inside the new triangles
you made, and then triangles inside those new triangles--
and why would filling triangles into triangles
give you the same thing as a trapezoidal meta squiggle?
Or is it the same thing?
Which reminds me of another fractal
made of triangles, where you make this snowflake by adding
triangles to triangles.
Each one in the middle third of each piece of edge, which
you realize you could totally get with your tracing method.
Start with one line with a bump, then
trace each line to be a line with a bump, and so on.
Which is interesting, because this time you're
not squiggling back and forth, or forth and back,
but bumping out the same way each time.
Though, you could try doing it the other way.
Which makes you really want to know
what you get if you do the first thing.
But instead of always starting with zigging out,
you alternate starting zig out and zig in.
And it's kind of bumping into itself.
And this would definitely be more perfect with graph paper
or something.
OK, now it's starting to look like a triangle?
On the one hand, not nearly as cool as a spirally thing
you get when your zigs always go the same way.
On the other hand, why would you get a triangle?
And it's like a solid triangle too.
If you kept doing this forever, would the triangle
just fill up completely?
These didn't do that.
Although with this thing you have sections
that are starting to fill up.
Maybe here at some point that will happen,
though it seems like it's just full of holes forever.
You kind of wish you had a way to take some graph paper
and skip all the way to what happens later in the sequence.
Maybe if you had some sort of diagram, like-- this
has a line with one right turn.
The next one goes right, right, left.
And then the next goes right, right, left, right, right,
left, left.
Is there a rule?
Maybe it's just like the zig zag zag zigs.
Or maybe not.
OK, but there's probably some rule.
Suddenly, a note lands on your desk from your friend Sam.
Who writes, looks like you're concentrating pretty hard.
Don't tell me you're actually doing math.
As, if.
You write back, no way.
I'm just doodling this.
And just to make extra clear it's not math,
you turn it into a dragon, and name it the dragon curve.
Yes.
You don't want to crumple up your awesome dragon doodle,
but you do have to throw it two rows over.
So you neatly fold it into a note spear.
Which just means you're folding it
in half again and again, until it's
easy to javelin across the room the moment the teachers back
is turned-- Bam!
Yes!
Perfect landing.
You watch as Sam unfolds it.
And suddenly you feel like you see something familiar.
Some sort of similarity between the paper
and-- is that possible?
You take your diagram, and fold it in half.
And half again.
And again.
And wow, not only does it look like it's doing the same thing,
probably, but it's also showing a new way to do it.
Instead of keeping track of zigs and zags,
you can just copy the old one, and add
it 90 degrees from the other, which is totally traceable.
Bam.
Easy.
Well, as long as you can keep track
of what end to start from.
And you don't even have to keep track
of what order to draw the lines in.
You just need to keep things roughly on a square grid
so things line up.
Easy.
Until it gets too big for your paper and you
have to dragon-ize it.
It's funny, because one way it gets bigger and bigger.
If you go on forever, it'll be infinitely big.
But with the first way, it stays basically the same size.
You just draw more details.
Which means if you do it forever,
the line will still get infinitely long,
but the total size will stay the same.
Will that even work?
An infinitely long line all squiggled up
into a finite area?
And then with folding paper, the whole thing
gets smaller and smaller until maybe it disappears entirely.
And maybe you could fold the Axe Mooks
smaller and smaller until they also disappear entirely.
Which you suppose makes sense because the edge of the paper
stays the same length, no matter how you fold it.
You can't make it longer and longer like copying it,
where the length doubles each time.
So instead, the whole thing gets smaller and smaller.
Maybe this grid really would fill up
until that infinitely long line is squiggled up
into an actual solid two dimensional triangle
with no empty space left in it.
Maybe that would make sense.
Or be crazy.
You know lines are infinitely thin,
but if you had infinitely much of it,
maybe the infinities would cancel out or something.
Like the line gets closer and closer to itself
until it actually touches, but doesn't
overlap, but with no space between.
Which would make no sense, unless you do it everywhere
at once, so who can tell the difference.
Yeah, that totally sounds legit.
Although, in this one, there's holes
that never get filled at any point,
so you'd still have an infinite line,
but it doesn't fill up space, it's just all holes forever,
but it also never overlaps, So where
is all that infinite line going?
Anyway, class is over, so you pack up and save the question.
After all, you've got math class again tomorrow.
and you're supposed to be learning about logarithms,
which you figure is probably something
to do with avant-garde percussion performances.
But every time you try to pay attention,
you find that your teacher's explanations of logarithms

So the next would be, zigzag zag zig, zigza-- wait, no.
That was a zag, and those get turned into zags zigs.
So it should be zigzag, zag zig zag zig zig zag.
And next, zig zag zag zigzag, zig zig zigzag, zag zig-- wait,
was this a zig?
Maybe if we put it all onto some sort of reference diagram,
that generates each new pattern based on-- No!
This was supposed to be about mindless
zigging in the squiggle zone.
This is unacceptable.
So maybe just pretend each time you get to a new stage,
the old path is all just zigzag zigzag zigzag zigzag.
And to keep it all neat and orderly,
you decide to try to make all the lines the same length,
always with right angles between them.
Here we go.
[SINGING]
Wait, how did this-- Huh.
What if we tried starting with three lines?
Zig zag zug.
OK.
So then each zig should get a zig zag zug,
and each zag a zug zag zig?
And then the zug gets, well, maybe it just
goes back and forth, whether it goes
on the inside or the outside.
OK, wait now where did it start?
And everything's running into itself, and getting bigger,
and doesn't fit on the paper.
OK, maybe if it were a little more open
it wouldn't run into itself.
Say like, half a hexagon, so you can
keep all the angles perfect.
And then trapezoids in and out.
Yeah, this is totally going to work.
Lookit.
In fact, like this, you could even make it go inside first,
and back and forth, and it wouldn't run into itself.
Next, you could make it go even closer together here,
and still not run into itself.
Except that means you'd have to start on the outside this time.
But that's OK, because next time you can go on the inside again.
And now it's an easy pattern.
Trapezoid in, trapezoid out, trapezoid in, trapezoid out.
Back and forth until the last trapezoid in.
And then the next time starts with trapezoid out.
Although it's hard to tell what's
in and what's out now that it's getting so squiggly.
So you're just focusing on going on one
side of the line, and then the other.
And wait.
This looks familiar.
Is that, Sierpinski's triangle?
The fractal you get when you put a triangle inside a triangle,
and then triangles inside the new triangles
you made, and then triangles inside those new triangles--
and why would filling triangles into triangles
give you the same thing as a trapezoidal meta squiggle?
Or is it the same thing?
Which reminds me of another fractal
made of triangles, where you make this snowflake by adding
triangles to triangles.
Each one in the middle third of each piece of edge, which
you realize you could totally get with your tracing method.
Start with one line with a bump, then
trace each line to be a line with a bump, and so on.
Which is interesting, because this time you're
not squiggling back and forth, or forth and back,
but bumping out the same way each time.
Though, you could try doing it the other way.
Which makes you really want to know
what you get if you do the first thing.
But instead of always starting with zigging out,
you alternate starting zig out and zig in.
And it's kind of bumping into itself.
And this would definitely be more perfect with graph paper
or something.
OK, now it's starting to look like a triangle?
On the one hand, not nearly as cool as a spirally thing
you get when your zigs always go the same way.
On the other hand, why would you get a triangle?
And it's like a solid triangle too.
If you kept doing this forever, would the triangle
just fill up completely?
These didn't do that.
Although with this thing you have sections
that are starting to fill up.
Maybe here at some point that will happen,
though it seems like it's just full of holes forever.
You kind of wish you had a way to take some graph paper
and skip all the way to what happens later in the sequence.
Maybe if you had some sort of diagram, like-- this
has a line with one right turn.
The next one goes right, right, left.
And then the next goes right, right, left, right, right,
left, left.
Is there a rule?
Maybe it's just like the zig zag zag zigs.
Or maybe not.
OK, but there's probably some rule.
Suddenly, a note lands on your desk from your friend Sam.
Who writes, looks like you're concentrating pretty hard.
Don't tell me you're actually doing math.
As, if.
You write back, no way.
I'm just doodling this.
And just to make extra clear it's not math,
you turn it into a dragon, and name it the dragon curve.
Yes.
You don't want to crumple up your awesome dragon doodle,
but you do have to throw it two rows over.
So you neatly fold it into a note spear.
Which just means you're folding it
in half again and again, until it's
easy to javelin across the room the moment the teachers back
is turned-- Bam!
Yes!
Perfect landing.
You watch as Sam unfolds it.
And suddenly you feel like you see something familiar.
Some sort of similarity between the paper
and-- is that possible?
You take your diagram, and fold it in half.
And half again.
And again.
And wow, not only does it look like it's doing the same thing,
probably, but it's also showing a new way to do it.
Instead of keeping track of zigs and zags,
you can just copy the old one, and add
it 90 degrees from the other, which is totally traceable.
Bam.
Easy.
Well, as long as you can keep track
of what end to start from.
And you don't even have to keep track
of what order to draw the lines in.
You just need to keep things roughly on a square grid
so things line up.
Easy.
Until it gets too big for your paper and you
have to dragon-ize it.
It's funny, because one way it gets bigger and bigger.
If you go on forever, it'll be infinitely big.
But with the first way, it stays basically the same size.
You just draw more details.
Which means if you do it forever,
the line will still get infinitely long,
but the total size will stay the same.
Will that even work?
An infinitely long line all squiggled up
into a finite area?
And then with folding paper, the whole thing
gets smaller and smaller until maybe it disappears entirely.
And maybe you could fold the Axe Mooks
smaller and smaller until they also disappear entirely.
Which you suppose makes sense because the edge of the paper
stays the same length, no matter how you fold it.
You can't make it longer and longer like copying it,
where the length doubles each time.
So instead, the whole thing gets smaller and smaller.
Maybe this grid really would fill up
until that infinitely long line is squiggled up
into an actual solid two dimensional triangle
with no empty space left in it.
Maybe that would make sense.
Or be crazy.
You know lines are infinitely thin,
but if you had infinitely much of it,
maybe the infinities would cancel out or something.
Like the line gets closer and closer to itself
until it actually touches, but doesn't
overlap, but with no space between.
Which would make no sense, unless you do it everywhere
at once, so who can tell the difference.
Yeah, that totally sounds legit.
Although, in this one, there's holes
that never get filled at any point,
so you'd still have an infinite line,
but it doesn't fill up space, it's just all holes forever,
but it also never overlaps, So where
is all that infinite line going?
Anyway, class is over, so you pack up and save the question.
After all, you've got math class again tomorrow.
Anywho, charges...

Ahh, thank you.
Was the entity I used a charge for last post overlooked, or denied, by the way?
[Attack]
Mythic quickly sheaths and redraws their sword at a Sword Mook, the obvious trope for swordplay would appear to be in action, but instead, the mook bursts into flames.
