How many continents will be generated for each world size, using the new basic planet customizer settings that will be implemented in 0.8.3.0?

By continents do you mean patch regions?

[AnthropocenianAge (AnthropocenianAge Arthropleura wants to give you a hug!)]

If they are the same thing in this context, then yes.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I presume they will be in some brackets, so for instance one setting might give you 6-8 regions. I presume there will be three or so “size presets” present.

what exactly are the sources for the currently implemented (thermocycle) model of thermosynthesis?

Maybe some are in the organelles’ thrivopedia page?

Is it planned for the Panspermia start option to only randomize the starting location, or also eventually randomize the starting organism (organelles, membrane, behavior, organelle reproduction order, tolerances)?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

That would require considerably more effort to be put into the starting option than is probably meant for it…

Is it still planned to use Bolsadesupermer123’s screenshots for the new intros of Warm Little Pond and Panspermia?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

That depends on if Bolsa is still around here the most

A screenshot is not the same as a new intro video… What the new intros would ultimately be like will be up to the individual artists making the new intro videos.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Could these videos be pushed back beyond 1.0.0 or would that be unacceptable?

[hhyyrylainen]

Well they aren’t being actively worked on by anyone so there’s nothing we can do to make them happen faster.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

We do have people in the dev team capable of creating these cutscenes though, right?

[hhyyrylainen]

No one who is active right now. We are in a pretty rare historic moment where we have more active programmers, but almost no other roles active.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

We’ll need these other roles soon considering they’ll be needed to design stuff in multicellular. Otherwise the move to macroscopic might take even longer…

I cannot remember if this was already mentioned, but it is planned to have both slow-twitching and fast-twitching muscle fibers in the game?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I don’t recall this being discussed recently at least. Maybe you could also make other kinds of muscle cells?

I was looking at the road to 1.0.0.0, and in addition to the 2 AutoEvo issues on the road, there are a half dozen or so Graphics related points remaining on the road map. Have any team members who handle either AutoEvo or Graphics been active this summer?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Hhyyrylainen has stated (nearly?) exclusively programmers were active lately, and I am not sure if Thim is here for the autoevo stuff currently, which’d mean these tasks might be pushed back somewhat.
