Hey, here’s a short devlog about an upcoming feature to the game, water environment.
Water has been a little problematic feature to implement with all the possibilities of things to bug out. Despite this, the water environment is coming. Here is WIP image of what its going to look like.
Animals that can swim, can enter and exit the water using ramps that are build on the edges of water. Some objects can be placed in water. Water is built similar to normal terrains which allows player to be more creative of shapes they want. Of course, you cannot build over preexisting objects, so you first need to clear the area you are going to be building.
Due to performance limitations of current system, there will only be one water type which is going to be reserved for water environment. This does not exclude the possibility of multiple styles or types of water coming in future. The water environment is going to contain capricorn and any future swimming/water themed animals (at least hydra).
