I mean... this as Arizona just a month ago.Sure, it can even snow in a desert. I think the heart of the disconnect is that for Arizona, the biome would be something like "mountains" and it would snow there.

Exactly. I dont get these kind of discussions. Its.....a.....freaking.....game.Hey faatal! I think having zombies in the game is unrealistic! Can you remove them in 2.0 please?
That would make the game much, much better and fit my own realistic vision of the game.
Thanks :yo:
anyone know how many times microsoft and sony has denied the console to dedicated approval?

You know what I don't see in that video? I don't see any 110° patches of sandy desert, with cactus in full bloom. I don't see leaves on the non-evergreens. Because obviously it's winter.3 hours ago, Jugom said:

Straw man with a dash of false equivalence.
Welcome to any game forum.![]()
Now....elevation changes might be fun if we could get snow higher without it turning into a giant hill.
It is possible, this is the map I'm playing on now.
That is one of the advantages of doing it by hand, I got the Idea to do
...
One thought that I got from reading the conversations, is if elevation is used.
It can progress from low to high terrain or the reverse as the difficulty progresses.
Elevation based biomes are easy. The problem is making a place in them where POI or towns can be. A snowy mountain doesn't exactly leave much room for such things.
@faatal This might have been asked before, but can we do the weather and storms without the biome progression turned on? Also, if you have a snow biome immunity idol (or whatever it's called, lol), does that make you immune to storms in the snow biome?
Kinyajuu experimented with elevation based snow and temperature years ago but ultimately rejected it. I don't know why but I do think it is interesting that the concept isn't something that hasn't already been considered and tried already. Gradual transitions between biomes and dithering effects were also experimented with quite a bit in the past. None of these requests are new feedback and TFP seems to have responded to all this feedback already with due consideration.
I don't doubt you, though I wonder if the current discussion involves a slightly different approach. What I think you're saying that Kinyajuu experimented with snow appearing at certain heights. What I think being ideated presently is that the base height of the snow biome be some number of block higher. Or, did Kinyajuu and the gang consider that at the time as well?
Now this has style@faatal I know a UI overhaul is slated for 3.0 or 4.0 - any chance we might be getting something that looks less plain? I found this on Reddit, and it's VASTLY more interesting than what we currently have.View attachment 34093
Dark times especially the lost of the plains and maple forestchange farming to the farm plot method, the number of biomes had to be reduced, and they no longer were able to make the transitions between biomes
Yeah, you can make what is basically a large flat hill be covered with snow. Plateaus work as well. But in this game, that doesn't have the same effect visually as a snowy mountaintop. It ends up looks more like just a normal biome map rather than one that is based on elevation.I don't know about AZ, but I remember what I considered to be plains in the Colorado Rockies. I'm thinking of Gunnison CO if you want to take a look via Google Maps.
umm.. no. the person I quoted was saying that AZ would only have snow in the mountains.You know what I don't see in that video? I don't see any 110° patches of sandy desert, with cactus in full bloom. I don't see leaves on the non-evergreens. Because obviously it's winter.
No one is arguing that Arizona doesn't get snow. The argument is that the air & climate in a region can't be 110°F in one spot, and 15° just 3 feet away at the same elevation. Unless you're standing at the edge of a lava field or hot spring, anyway.
To each their own. I personally don't like that kind of UI. I prefer a clean UI and one that isn't brown. It makes certain things harder to see and just looks bad to me. There also isn't any reason to have all that protection stuff showing all the time in this game. That's just a cluttered top section, imo.@faatal I know a UI overhaul is slated for 3.0 or 4.0 - any chance we might be getting something that looks less plain?

@zztong The map in the image is the Thank You one I created for you.and how gradually the change in elevation needs to be.
Kinyajuu experimented with elevation based snow and temperature years ago but ultimately rejected it.
it had great benefits but also certain limitations.
I don't know, but I hope it does not look like that!@faatal I know a UI overhaul is slated for 3.0 or 4.0 - any chance we might be getting something that looks less plain? I found this on Reddit, and it's VASTLY more interesting than what we currently have.View attachment 34093
LOL. Sure, sure...if someone wants a game to follow their hundreds of exacting specifications of what it should be, they are probably not going to find it in any existing game and need to go make it themselves.Hey faatal! I think having zombies in the game is unrealistic! Can you remove them in 2.0 please?

Biome Progression and Storm Frequency are two different settings with separate code/data, so are completely independent of each other.@faatal This might have been asked before, but can we do the weather and storms without the biome progression turned on? Also, if you have a snow biome immunity idol (or whatever it's called, lol), does that make you immune to storms in the snow biome?
Lord please no. Thats the most hidious chararcter screen ever made. Just no.@faatal I know a UI overhaul is slated for 3.0 or 4.0 - any chance we might be getting something that looks less plain?
