OK new release is out, new stuff:

• Temperature
• Land smoothing (makes much nicer looking maps)
• Basic map editor (only raising and lowering water level)
• Enter able map squares (hit . to enter and , to exit)
• Basic console help system (press ‘h’ to access it)

The code has now finally been split up into different modules. In the future I aim to release modules for everything to allow for more ease of modification.

Ok, I got everthing fixed up a couple of days ago so I really should have released then but i’ve been fiddling

New things since last release:

• Implemented z coordinate (Up down)
• Mountains
• Oceans (with depths)
• Soil quality
• grass that grows (sort of)
• Trees & forests that grow
• Openable map (Hit ‘m’)
• World saving (No loading yet)
• Cleaned and re-wrote quite a bit of the code. (More efficient now)

I have taken out ice until temp is in (hopefully soon) although the top of mountains still have ’snow’ on them
