Hot and the lack of cold.
« on: December 10, 2008, 09:43:30 am »

Can someone explain to me why any time I manage to find a cold part of the map... typically the last two or three tyles on the north or southern most extreme if I move my pointer toward any mountains it says the mountains are WARMER than anything else around??  and why is it always just the last two or three tiles at the very extreme with nearly half the map fit for the tropics?  WTH is going on here?

Like the north and south pole (relatively) are warmer than only a couple tiles north or south of them?

Maybe a f'd up weather system or something? It should work like freezing cold warm hot scorching hot warm cold freezing.

If not, then maybe it's just meant to be.

Just gets tiresome that half the map is hot or hotter and only a tiny bit is even cold, and freezing??  only if I see a glacier.

Newest map, northern most edge is cold/temperate.  three tiles south of the northern extreme and it's warm...  I'll keep trying, but it's always like this.which is ridiculous.

Set min/max temp at 10. Receive cold and only cold

Well okay, technically some of the areas are freezing


Dwarves develop a strange tendency to live in glaciers in these kinds of worlds

There's a lot of things wrong with the new standard world size. Try making a large world instead.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.
