WORLD TREE: THE FIRST RING — PUBLIC ALPHA

DESCRIPTION

World Tree: The First Ring is a character mod for Don't Starve Together.

Your true body is a World Tree rooted in one location. Unlike a normal survivor, the tree cannot walk around the world. Press Z to extend your mind into a Carrat, then directly control it to explore, gather supplies, and carry them back to your roots.

Natural nutrients brought back to the tree become growth. At 5 growth, the World Tree gains a small starlight aura and the Carrat's usable carrying space expands from 4 slots to 6. At 15 growth, you unlock a private 27-slot root storage.

Gathering remains important after reaching 15 growth. Hunger drains while the Carrat is active. If your hunger is below 80% when you return, the tree consumes carried natural nutrients to restore 3 hunger per item, stopping at 80%. Only the amount currently needed is consumed. Surplus items remain in your inventory, and items inside the root storage are never consumed automatically.

This public Alpha contains a playable opening and a repeatable gather–return–grow–store survival loop. It is not yet a complete character overhaul.

世界树·第一环——公开Alpha测试版

模组简介

《世界树·第一环》是《饥荒：联机版》的一个角色模组。

你的真实本体是一棵扎根于固定位置的世界之树。与普通幸存者不同，这棵树无法在世界中四处走动。按下Z键，将你的意识延伸至一只胡萝卜鼠（Carrat）中，然后直接操控它去探索、收集补给，并将它们带回你的根部。

带回给树的自然养分将转化为成长。当成长值达到5时，世界树会获得一小片星光光环，且胡萝卜鼠可用的携带空间会从4格扩展至6格。达到15成长值时，你将解锁一个私人27格根部储物空间。

即使达到15成长值，收集依然重要。胡萝卜鼠活动期间，饥饿值会持续消耗。如果你归来时饥饿值低于80%，树会消耗携带的自然养分，每件物品恢复3点饥饿值，直至恢复到80%为止。仅消耗当前所需的数量，剩余物品会保留在你的物品栏中，且根部储物空间内的物品永远不会被自动消耗。

此公开Alpha版本包含一个可游玩的序幕，以及一个可重复的“收集—返回—成长—储存”生存循环。它还不是一个完整的角色重制模组。

2. 将解压出的整个模组文件夹移动至你的《饥荒：联机版》mods目录下。
3. 启动游戏，并在模组（Mods）菜单中启用《世界树·第一环》。
4. 进行多人游戏时，服务器以及每位加入的玩家都必须安装并启用相同版本。
5. 安装前请备份现有世界，或使用新世界进行首次测试。
