I feel like events impacting this stuff might be too much, especially as this is only a brand-new feature…

It would make sense for Meteor Impact events to temporarily increase the amount of terrain chunks generated, along with the other compounds associated with the Meteor type in question. After all, parts of a planetary crust would be broken by a meteor impact and generate rocky debris.

Would that debris stay for long in the water column though?

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

Probably not very long.

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

When exactly is a post-meteor round supposed to take place after the impact?

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

Doesn’t the affect of Meteors only last one round, the round the meteor impact occurs? So, it would make sense for the temporary increase in terrain chunks to follow the same pattern as meteor event-induced compounds.

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

I guess so. How large should the boost be?

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

Even with the increased frequency of spawning for terrain, it should still be transversable, so maybe 10% increase of meteor terrain on Geologically Stable, 20% increase of meteor terrain on Geologically Normal, and 30% increase of meteor terrain on Geologically Active?

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

I guess that could work quite well.

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

Why was the Day/Night cycle setting changed so that it can no longer be adjusted by 2 seconds?

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

What is the minimum step on it now?

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

It is now 30 seconds.

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

Maybe such a small time step caused some problems?

[hhyyrylainen]

It was probably an accidental change when the GUI was being redone for it, and no one noticed and no one has complained (or at least had complained before now).

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

This unintended downgrade is going to be reverted now, right?

[hhyyrylainen]

Not unless someone actually makes a PR.

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

Are ice terrain (immovable) chunks perhaps planned for the shelfs and the glaciated patchs?

[Poodelicus (Crazy, Curious, and Stubborn)]

Before I waste any more time re re reformatting and editing, I am just going to ask.
@hhyyrylainen
If in late February or so, someone were to have lets say 6 or so posts worth of Underwater Civ essay, would you prefer:
A. A single sextuple+ post
B. Seven + separate “Topics”, with one linking the others in order:
B1. posted all at once
B2. posted one at time, with the next ready to go as soon as you’ve finished reading/approving the previous

@Poodelicus

A. A single sextuple+ post

So they all are 32k characters in length? If they are all content and no fluff, I’ve said before that if you hit the post length limit then you can post multiple times in a row.

@Poodelicus

B. Seven + separate “Topics”, with one linking the others in order:

Absolutely not this. Anything is better than this. I’d consider it spamming to open 7 simultaneous topics on the same subject.

@Poodelicus

B2. posted one at time, with the next ready to go as soon as you’ve finished reading/approving the previous

All at once would be better because I doubt a single post would be comprehensive from start to finish.

Are you sure you have viable scientific articles linked to everything in there? Because if not, then your effort may all go to waste due to the UC discussion requirements needing the absolute maximum of evidence for their (unproven) viability to go industrial+.
