Ah, yeah I can see it now. Hm, the image doesn’t provide much information. All I can really tell from it is that you’re very close to the edge of the world and you’ve begun a building. I’ve no idea if being so close to the edge could cause a freeze.

On a side note, I’ve now got member status ＼(＠O＠)／

Oh ok, welp, guess that solves that, just stay away from the edge of the world.

I do know that someone has talked about the abandoned plates before, I’ll add a link once I find it. If you destroy the Goblin camp’s campfire, it should revert the camp area back to grass and such. If it doesn’t, simply destroy the buildings and build over it.

Did enemies happen to attack or did you put your town on defense mode at any point during your playthrough? It appears that doing that will cause plates of berries to be left unattended.

Ah, wonderful news, as I have quite a good amount of litter in my dining halls. My Hearthlings sleep schedule got messed up during a goblin raid, so now they sleep during the day and eat during the night, when zombies frequently attack.

Despite their unique abilities to float, mime, and admire their own buttocks without the need of a mirror, they have yet to properly understand the phrase, “Clean up after yourself.”

currently the only way is to use the `destroy` command,

- press the ~ key to open the console

- select plate of berries (or whatever type of food it is)

- type `destroy`

- press enter

- press the ~ key to close the console

those steps should work.

I’m having something very similar, although it’s the Alpha 11 latest release.

After starting a new game, I go to build a general worker’s hut while the Hearthlings run around and gather materials. I usually make these buildings two-story, with the second story smaller than the rest of the building. Here’s a picture -

 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/stonehearth/original/3X/8/1/81973ceb184bcbaa2357dd56b6eea036391d6203.jpg)

As soon as I place the roof for the first story, everything freezes. I can’t change the speed, but I can click on things on the middle toolbar and open up the menu (from there I can’t save - it freezes entirely but I can still open up the menu and close it - however, I can load)

I’m able to place ‘regular’ roofs, like the second story one, without incident.

 ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/stonehearth/original/3X/0/f/0f7cfd8c415e26a005d694898649bf4ddc1da45c.jpg)

Right after I placed the first story roof, this error message popped up, which hadn’t before. This hadn’t happened in any of my other games, neither 10.5 or 11, and I’d done this sort of building before.
