I think so, but I might want to do it in a different format and separate from all my topics so far, for fun of course.
Would it still be lounge-only or be a regular FG?
Regular this time
what i will do? IHNI
Should we only expect nephil 2 to launch once either genesis or remmortal is complete?
I dont think soo
i need more time if it will have the stuff and the people to do it
Oh so itโs an ever further back project?
Maybe
no ppromesises
I see. We may get there one day I suppose.
Apparently fish are also eaten in Scandinavia and Sweden according to Wikipedia.org
Wait whatโs seed world?
Itโs a speculative biosphere thing where a planet is set up to only have some set of species to start off with
He mean the meansion of โSloastralโ World-โSeedโ that i am making that the common starfish its the apex-predetor of the planet
with some extinct animals
Didnโt you also include cephalopods in there?
The only one I have from the cephalopod family is Plectronoceras:
Technically the first of the cephalopods, but it doesnโt exactly behave like one.
First, it is benthic and doesnโt exactly have the jetting ability that cephalopods have (according to research I read, even if they have it, it is probably very weak and probably serves as an escape, but is not effective and usually drags itself along the bottom. They were a benthic micrograzer.
So, I should reveal the full list of all the creatures I added to the ecology:

Those Plectronoceras look so cute! I want to pet them!
The wikipedia page for Plectronoceras does not have that image, and instead has this image.
So the wikipedia page has an inaccurate depiction?
You should never rely on Wikipedia for accurate knowledge.
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/378567830_Plectronoceratids_Cephalopoda_from_the_latest_Cambrian_at_Black_Mountain_Queensland_reveal_complex_three-dimensional_siphuncle_morphology_with_major_taxonomic_implications
Solely on Wikipedia for accurate knowledge, since it depends on who has written the articles, and what articles are linked as references. Same thing with AI, and Wikipedia is one the training datasets for AI.
Should the picture on the Plectronoceras Wikipedia page be changed to the one you linked?
Not to be rude but maybe you should create a new topic for this thing?
So a correcting Wikipedia thread? ![]()
I was talking about their seedworld not the wikipedia being inaccurate thing
New doomlightning FG maybe?
