The update v3.3 is now available. It focuses on the tempest system and the desert biome.
The tempest system
Storm elements now happen locally and can be seen from the distance. It is composed of two elements (as previously): tornadoes and lightning.
Tornadoes are bigger and move around a center point. Going too close to them will harm you but you can still walk away.
Lightning strike in the same area. You attract lightning only if you enter in this area.
The weather controller and the station dock now create a hole in the clouds (removing any tempest element in the area).
The desert biome
The desert is now composed of 4 biomes (instead of one previously). There are now:
- the sandy biome (same as previous one, filled with resources, dry grass, trees and rocks)
- the oasis biome (only sand and some spots for resources)
- the rocky biome (filled with different rock types and big rock columns)
- the dry biome (filled with dry grass)
