Hi everyone,

I would to propose the ability to choose a biome be added to the game. I personally love the green biomes with lots of forest to hack through. I don't really care for the desert biomes.

I can't really think of a game changing reason to have this or not, but it would certainly make the game more enjoyable for me.

Thoughts?

You choose the biome indirectly by the map-hash which influences the world-generation. There are of course hashs, that consists only out of one biome-type. But I think this is not, what's wanted.

Added this thread there.

wood availabillity can be a game changing factor.... but then again so could having agressive or passive enemies, or changing the values of ores, so... pfffft!


BTW, I want this option too.
