Without researching anything, 'Fertile Fields' allows you to do basic terrain modification, essentially just digging up dirt from one spot and moving it to another. New Research and Terrain Improvement Options: Or learn the fine art of terraforming, and redesign your environment to your heart's content. Further improve your farm's fertility by researching farming and plowing your soil. Fertilizer can be used to convert any soil to rich soil. Geological Landforms contains an integration patch that adds a filter for landforms, you can find it in the 'Terrain II & Temp' tab.'Fertile Fields' is a terraforming mod that lets you fertilize and plow your soil, create farmland on solid rock so you can grow crops in inhospitable environs or inside of mountains, and eventually even restructure the landscape.Ĭreate raw compost with food waste at a butcher's table, then put it in a compost bin or barrel so in time it can become fertilizer. Alternatively, you can install Prepare Landing which allows filtering all world tiles based on selected criteria. Select any tile, open the 'Terrain' tab and click the 'Search for landform nearby' button. > How can I easily find a specific landform on the world map? In that case, move to a normal tile before removing the mod. Yes, unless you have settled on an impassable mountains tile, which is not supported by vanilla. > Can I safely remove this mod from an existing save? Of course existing colony maps will not be affected, only new ones generated after the mod was added. > Can I add this mod to an existing save? For islands specifically, at least one side will always have shallow water to allow entering and leaving the map. > How do events and raids work on islands?Īll landforms (should) always leave at least one part of the map edge walkable, which allows events and raids to happen normally. Geological Landforms does not add or modify any biomes, and instead adds a separate layer to map generation that can then independently be applied to any biome, including ones added by other mods. > How is this mod different from other map generation mods? Using a larger map size is also fine, but the landforms might not generate correctly if the map is too small.ĭirect downloads for non-Steam users are available here: GitHub Releases The landforms are optimized for the standard map size (250x250). Each landform only generates on tiles within its appropriate temperature range, rainfall amount and other conditions.

Landforms of the selected world tile are listed at the bottom of the world map 'Terrain' tab. For example, Islands and Archipelagos are very remote but provide very little stone and ores, and Canyons and Rifts are very easy to defend and have plenty of ores, but provide very little natural resources like food, light, wood, and space to grow plants or keep animals. Some of the landforms significantly affect gameplay and can make the game both easier or much more challenging in various ways. The goal of this mod is to make map generation more interesting and varied, compared to the vanilla experience of having either a cliff or a coast on one edge of your map. You can see an example of each landform in the image gallery on this workshop page.

Adds 36 landforms to the game, which generate biome-independently.
