As for the seasons: is it planned to implement season-dependent terrain palettes (they are hardcoded to use spring palette now)? How about changing entity appearance based on season (frankly I don’t care if it’s via changing the model or material map)?

I think looking at the Arctic map, there will be a small need for a workaround when you go for model changes no ? I am not exactly sure if that’s even what you meant but trying to figure out.

That’s actually less of a concern than the hardcoded terrain palette because I’ve already been thinking about coding a component which changes model variant when seasons change. How easy would it be to code depends on how the seasons are implemented.

[image] Requests from modders to devs for 1.0 and 1.1 Yes. Might not be the best place to ask this but since it was mentioned, just wanted to know: Will the calendar be somewhat changed for seasons? Right now the year is pretty much realistic (30 days per month, 12 months) which makes the sea…

[image] Requests from modders to devs for 1.0 and 1.1 Yes. A month will be 7 days. Which months are covered by each season depends on the biome. [image] Requests from modders to devs for 1.0 and 1.1 Gradual. panting anticipation arises Damn, I love you guys.

To confirm here, in hot biomes winter will be opposite to winter in cold biomes ? Will seasons empower biome settings ? Cold + Cold = more slow etc. ?

Excited to see how that’ll work than. Does that mean season weather will overrule biome weather or will there be 2 possible weather scenarios together. Thanks for the clarification

My guess is that biome will have 4 weather arrays just like it will have 4 palette arrays (it currently has one called spring, so that is a ‘hint’)

Gradual.
