Changes: Hiding Places and Props

Revision as of 22:08, 20 July 2017

Terrain refers to structures or plant life of sorts, that are typically (with a few exceptions) randomly generated and are part of the standard map. Terrain usually provides some sort of purpose that affects the gameplay in some way shape or form, but in some cases are just purely cosmetic decoration.

Hiding places

Hiding Places are terrain that can be hidden in by animals for protection. Not all animals can hide in all terrain though.

Name	Summary	Image
Anemone	Generates on the ocean floor. Tier 1 to tier 3 animals can hide here.
Beaver Dam	Generates between the ocean and its surface. Beavers can hide here. Orange food pieces grow on its roots. Slowly landing on the top allows you to walk across it.
Bush	Generates atop islands. Crabs can hide here. Berries spawn here.
Tree	Generates atop islands. Reaching the top of a tree requires that you boost, fly, or be pushed to the top. Seagulls can hide here. Snakes can climb trees. Apples and coconuts grow on its leaves.
Igloo	Generates atop glaciers. Penguins can hide here.
Volcano	Generates on the arctic and deeeep floors. Produces volcano food, which can be eaten. Tier 1 to tier 3 animals can hide here.
Shipwreck	One shipwreck always appears on one of the dirt islands that border the ocean and deeeep. Tier 1 to tier 9 animals can hide here. Produces bubbles that can be eaten.
Abandoned House	Does not generate randomly, one abandoned house always appears in a specific location to the left of the deeeep floor. Tier 1 to tier 9 animals can hide here.
Broken tree	Generates on the swamp floor. Tier 1 to tier 3 animals can hide here.

Platforms and obstacles

Platforms and obstacles are terrain that cannot be hidden in but can still be interacted with (i.e. walking on it or being unable to pass through it).

Name	Summary	Image
Island	Generates between the ocean and its surface. Platform for walking. Bushes and trees appear on here.
Glacier	Generates between the arctic and its surface. Platform for walking. Igloos appear here. Getting onto a glacier requires that you boost, fly, or be pushed atop it.
Swamp island	Generates between the swamp and its surface. Platform for walking. Swamp trees appear above and roots appear below swamp islands.
Waterfall	Does not generate randomly, one waterfall always generates at the entrance to the upper level of the swamp. Pushes any animals and food that enter it downward and left.
Swamp tree	Generates atop swamp islands. Snakes can climb swamp trees.
Lily pad	Generates between the swamp and its surface. Platform for walking.

Cosmetic terrain

Cosmetic terrain are terrain that cannot be interacted with and have no effect on the gameplay whatsoever.

Name	Summary	Image
Cloud	Generates at the height limit of the ocean surface and the arctic surface.
Roots	Generates underneath swamp islands.
Jagged logs	Generates on the swamp floor.
