New class: Fisher

Works in any biome. Can ice fish in Arctic. Required to harvest the oysters in the Archipelago.
Will get small and big fish, and capture crabs using traps. Also has a few craftable items and decorations.

---

Boats

A fisher can also craft a boat dock (high level merchants can offer it too). This special dock allows hearthlings and monsters to cross over from one side to another of the water using boats.

---

Biome flora and its items

Wood, fiber, herb, food, all themed. Palm and Papaya trees has new a mechanic, you harvest it for food, but if there is no fruit yet, it will harvest for wood (cut the tree).

---

Biome fauna

Ambient mobs, neutral animals, hostile monsters and custom themed skins.

---

New recipes

Every crafter has at least one added recipe.

---

New Templates and build block colors

Basic templates, ships and sand color added to the builder.

I hope you like it!

Great!!! I have add it to my German Translation and my list

But i think cactus and acacia doesnt fit to tropical so perhaps a new trees like palms?

[BrunoSupremo]

I’m not a 3d modeler, so I just used what I had already in game. (We have a palm tree in the game files, but we agreed that we can’t use unreleased content in our mods, I think the images used are already stretching too much that rule, even if heavy edited)

What I did with the flora was ignore the name acacia (which would never be in those biomes) and focus more into the looks, there is plenty of trees that look like that in those kind of islands, cactus are common too. It really depends on how you imagine it

[Wiese2007]

something like this

i want to be there … live there … and die there … i need my own island

If you want i can try to make the some … but im also not a good artist (for this i have @Kittyodoom xD) more a realist

Kudos for respecting the authors. And thanks for this mod, this one that looks awesome! Need to try it out later.

Is there a way to traverse islands without building giant bridges?

[coasterspaul]

Archipelagoes are one of my favorite terrain features ever. I love playing on them in Civ for all the naval warfare options, and in Minecraft for the building inspiration, and…

Glad to see I can soon add Stonehearth to that list.

[BrunoSupremo]

Was thinking more in this kind

But having palms would be nice too, can’t wait for Radiant to release it.[quote=“Wiese2007, post:4, topic:19962”]

If you want, we can test it and see how it looks.

@kanneblei

Nope You can use ladders, or maybe if you have talent and enough patience some kind of ship or port connecting both sides…

Having naval technology would be nice in this map.

[Azuratte]

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for.

[NakedFury]

nice this will make for a challenging game.

After this we would need a super hilly or completely on montains map type.

[Wharp]

This is wonderful! how long did it take?

[ACEXHUNT]

cool in coding,but not in concept.no offence this mod is still awesome but it an island(aka stranded deep)
suggestion try to make a only mountain-ny volcano biome or a thick swamp.

to moderator:no, this is not attacking the author.this is a suggestion/review of the mod.

[Kittyodoom]

Very nice! Downloading it now - if you’d like, I could take a stab at designing a tree like that between classes tomorrow

[Wharp]

I noticed a rather large bug where workers get stuck in walls… a lot. Dunno if its pathfinding or the generation It happens occasionally in the desert but way less often.

Also this happened:

I try to make a Palm-tree, if you like it, you can add it

[/quote]2 days, it is easy to edit simple biomes.

My other biome on the other hand is not ready since the start of the year, cause some thing are probably hard coded in lua and can’t be edited in .json (water level for example)

@ACEXHUNT

thick swamp

I have one working which I actually play on, but I will not release it yet cause I don’t think it is good enough, needs a lot of tuning.

@Kittyodoom

I could take a stab at designing a tree

I really don’t mind the trees I have now, if you guys can make a super awesome tree of course I will be tempted to add it in

@Wharp

bug where workers get stuck in walls

Yep, and this terrain is not heavy edited as my other one. I don’t know how to fix this and probably will need lua coding instead of .json config files… Sometimes they can simple go around a hole, but instead they stuck in their mind that they can go through it, and end up spazzing at the border of the hole without walking… I believe this is a bug in the game, and my edits just make it worse.

And the other one with the sunken ground… man I hate this… They hapen based on the amount of flat land you have, as I have a lot (but all flooded) they appear everywhere that has a little space, and then this ugly thing appears… The only value I thought would make a difference to remove this either had no effect, or simple crashed the game when changed…[quote=“Spiro, post:14, topic:19962”]

I’m going to check it in game later.

first try

with large upper palms

which one is better?

[Wharp]

I’d say add some curvature to the trunk, but I like both.
