Remove Cliff Explosives Research If Cliffs Are Disabled

Post by Stopdropanddie »

I think that if you turn off cliffs in the world generation settings, the research for cliff explosives should be removed from the research tree.

This would have to be handled carefully; mods or scenarios can create or have cliffs independent of those worldgen settings, and there are mods that let you toggle the "please create cliffs on new chunks" setting partway through the game.

Considering that combat related items are not removed from the game if biters are disabled, I don't see the point in this request....

How can biters be completely disabled? I only know the "Peaceful mode" where they spawn but not attack on their own, so weapons are still useful to clean areas you'd like to build in.

Anyway, how do we get certain achievements if a flamethrower or an atomic bomb are disabled? ;)

By turning off enemy spawn.
