TEMPORALY NOT MAINTAINED
As I'm working on another project, I don't have time to dedicate to this mod, also there are other mods outside doing what I wanted to do with this mod. So this one is not a priority for me at the moment. I'm still working on RimUniverse series, but will be focused on other aspects of RimWorld.


Main features
- Biomes reworked. A complete new biome tile selection simulating real life biome distribution based on Whittaker's biome diagram.
- Added new biomes: Permafrost, Grassland, Savanna, Woodland and Moist Deciduous Forest.
- Rivers, lakes, marsh water and coastal water will respond to extreme low temperatures freezing the water.

I see the Core mod of this series has been updated for 1.6, is there intention to update this Biomes mod as well?

That's fair enough!

@cyanobot I see, I am however hesitant to change such things as I have no info on what the original author indended.
You can use my mods Choose Wild Animal Spawns: https://steamproxy-script.pipiskins.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2564042934
and Choose Wild Plant Spawns: https://steamproxy-script.pipiskins.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2564446762
to modify the biome to your liking.

Sure. Woodland describes itself as "open habitat" and a "transition to shrubland" and sure enough generates mostly between Temperate Forest and Grassland/Savanna. But the maps generated are very densely forested (mostly Maple, Cypress, Poplar).

Moist Deciduous Forest describes itself as "flora [...] abundant" and, well, "moist" and generates mostly between Tropical Rainforest and temperate biomes. But the maps generated are open with mainly bushes and a reasonable scattering of Drago trees.

This seems to me like the map generation is just the wrong way round between the two.

@cyanobot Can you expand on that a bit? What appearance are you referring to?
cyanobot 22 Jul, 2023 @ 3:37pm 
I think the definitions for Woodland and Wet Deciduous Forest may be the wrong way round, from their descriptions vs appearances

@AerosAtar Should be fixed now

@Mlie
The Tundra and BorealForest patches for Erin's Mountain Animals in Biomes_Cold.xml need to be fixed/removed - the animals already have those biomes in their Defs and the patches cause ChooseWildAnimals to freak out because of the double key.

Love this mod, won't let me grow cherry trees (Vanilla plants expanded) in tundra though. I know it doesn't say the mods are compatible, but tundra is a vanilla biome so i dont know
