Biomes are strange, specifically the dessert areas and the terrain segmentation option doesn't appear to work at all. Water generation is pretty similarly "oddly behaving".

All I want is a "we're working on it" or "we have recreated and identified the problem" or "we really don't care how the map looks as long as it stops crashing and works as intended so we'll get to it... later". Just any indication of where on the list of priorities this issue is, because for me and a few other players who desire large biomes and correct terrain segmentation, this is a gamebreaking problem. I'm not going to play until it's fixed and playing 0.12 feels handicapped after tasting 0.13

Again thank you for all the updates, we went from 0.13 all the way to 0.13.9 in days, it's really quite amazing.

Which friday facts is this mentioned in? I thought I'd read them all but must have missed it.

There have been many complains regarding the terrain generation, we didn't encounter these problems in our games, but we should probably go back to it and tweak it a little.

If it's intended, then there really needs to be a setting for aggressiveness, beyond just the peaceful checkmark.

I've not noticed any more aggressive biter behaviour, apart from the generally much larger biter bases.

In what way did you observe a more aggressive biter behavior?

Edit: I've only played 0.13 on new maps, not on migrated 0.12 maps though.

Weresmilodon wrote:I've never used victory poles, but that was pretty much bugged behavior/AI exploitation, so whatever.

No, what I'm talking about is the large nests on all sides right outside the starting zone, the large attack forces coming early and constantly, and the impossibility to actually secure an area.

I play this game for the building and the automation, not the combat. The biters have always been a distraction from the main game, but now there's so much combat i have to start wondering if it's deliberate or not. I'd like one of the devs to speak up on that.

(If RSO really mellows them out, I'll have to take a look at it. I've been meaning to for a long time anyway, so why not?)
