There are several main features that affect game play in that tile on a generated world. You can never land or settle directly adjacent to a faction base. Relations with the savage tribe and pirates can never improve and they will always raid your settlements. These relations can improve and decrease over time. Also shown is each faction's relation with your colony and with each other. The colors on the factions and the shape of their bases screen help identify them on the world map. Normally, without faction amount customization, there are a total of 6 to 10 different factions, depending on the combination of DLC used: one neutral outlander nation, one hostile outlander union, one neutral tribe, one fierce tribe, one savage tribe, a band of pirates, the Empire, a nudist tribe, a cannibal tribe, and a cannibal pirate gang. Additionally there are the hidden ancients, insectoid, and mechanoid factions. There are three base kinds of factions in the base game: outlanders, tribes, and pirates and the Royalty DLC adds a fourth in the Empire faction. The ' Factions' button displays the different factions in the world. Map sizes: Sets the size of the local map where main gameplay takes place.Starting season: Recommended to leave as Auto or Spring for new players.The 'Advanced' button accesses these options: Reaching the mainland would require the use of transport pods in vanilla gameplay. It's possible to choose an island to land on, however caravans cannot cross water tiles without installing mods. Clicking a tile will show its information including its biome, terrain, overall weather, and growing period. Here the player can choose a tile to land on, or use the 'Select random site' button. The world will be made up mostly of hexagons and a few pentagons. Upon clicking Generate on the previous screen a new world is generated. GENERATE Click to continue with the current settings. Removing the Empire means deactivating empire quests, and removing mechanoid and insectoids prevents mechanoid raids and infestations respectively. The total faction count is limited to 11, with the Empire, Mechanoid, and Insect Hive factions restricted to only one. This does not affect the frequency of friendly visits or enemy raids as that is instead affected by the chosen AI and difficulty.Ĭhoose the desired numbers of each type of faction to spawn in the world, including outright disabling certain faction types by selecting zero of that type. This will largely affect your base's possible proximity to a number of faction bases and the time to reach them by caravan. Larger globe coverage generates a fuller world, but takes a longer time to load up, and can also impact performance on lower-end systems.Ĭhoose among wetter, drier, or normal range of biomes to generate across the planet.Ĭhoose among cooler, hotter, or normal range of biomes to generate across the planet.Ĭhoose desired density of faction sites to generate on the planet. GLOBE COVERAGE What percentage of the overall globe is generated. RANDOMIZE SEED Randomly picks a new seed. The locations of human-built features such as roads and NPC faction towns may persist on multiple uses of the same seed, or they may vary somewhat from one use to the next. A given seed always produces the same geographical features such as land masses, rivers and mountains. SEED A random seed is provided, but you may enter your own. The world generation screen appears during the creation of a new colony. An ancient society is then shallowly simulated to generate ancient roads, and modern settlements and roads are generated (often alongside ancient roads). When generating the world, the land masses form first, followed by rivers. When reloading the world after opening the colony, the game shows a loading screen. The seasonal differences are also less pronounced near the equator, with there being a permanent summer in it.
Temperatures in regards to proximity from the equator are also correct with hotter biomes being more central and colder biomes being closer to the poles. Time zones are also modelled as the world actually physically exists and is fully interactive. There are sliders for overall planet temperature and overall rainfall, with the result of changing them being true to what would happen in real life.
