[MOD 0.7.x] Terrain mod v.0.1

[kolt16]

Changes:
-Adds impassable hills to the game. (Note that this will mess up saves cos you will have no access to anything that has been built on hills)

-Terrain graphics tweaks for the hills, and a snowy tile set.

-Adds a few props and critters for map editing.(Permanent wall ruin, bones, old Creeper)

-Mini-map color changes, it improves visibility for me at least.


Download:

Install:
Copy Terrain mod folder into your mods directory.

Use one of the tile set packs from the Tilesets folder (drag into main game folder and allow replacement). The originals are included so you can use those to restore the game to ver 0.7.1.6796. (The packs only contain tile set graphics and trees, nothing else is touched)


Mini-map recoloring is in the terrain mod/data.lua if you want to disable it. Same thing with the impassable hills.

downloaded + tried it.. snow looks really nice
however - as you mentioned: my whole base is f* up ^^

Wow, it really looks nice.
It would be better, if instead of replacing the graphics, it would add the snow tileset/trees to some places (biomes), this should be already doable with the autoplacer.

Wow, this looks great. I'd like to use the snow version without the impassable hills though, is it possible to have 2 options?

Thx

You can just delete the impassable hills section in the data.lua and that's that. It'll still look a bit raised but i guess that's ok.


About the biomes, yeah that would be nice too, but for now I haven't even tried to add any new tiles next to the originals, no idea how the game would handle it. I might look at it later. I wanted to do a few more types, like jungle style, and maybe add some sort of urban terrain to be used with the editor, but I'might hold off on these until the new official tilesets are out.
