| Summary | 0004329: River biomes do not add to animal populations | ||||
| Description | I noticed that my worlds never seem to have platypuses and their allies in the sites and pops file. Apart from the lack of the amphibious tag, I noticed that their only biome is ANY_RIVER. Remembering an earlier observation of mine that river animals seemed particularly rare, I tested this by removing the lake biomes from the pike, and sure enough, pikes also no longer appear in the sites and pops file. | ||||
| Additional Information | I haven't tested whether the animals with only river biomes do appear in fortress mode rivers the way they do when they also have lake biomes. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Rivers are stored as map features, so their populations are generated in a different way which makes it more difficult to access them globally. This makes it hard to put them in the txt dumps. Platypus frequency of 10 works against them quite a bit... and they are missing their amphibious tag! I've fixed that, and I've had fortress platypus sightings. Theoretically the river storage could change at some point, but I can't promise anything. |
