What's world climate 223?

[Daniel87]

Hey there again,

While working on the biomes, I came across a small island at the coast that has no vegetation on it and is defined as world climate 223.
My list of climates is the following:

• 224: Desert 1

• 225: Desert 2

• 226: Mountains

• 227: Rainforest

• 228: Swamp

• 229: Subtropical

• 230: Woodland Hills

• 231: Temperate Woodland

• 232: Haunted Woodlands

But what the heck is 223 and why is it used by Unity when it doesn't exist?

From Assets\Scripts\API\MapsFile.cs, climate 223 is the ocean:

Code: Select all

        public enum Climates
        {
            Ocean = 223,
            Desert = 224,
            Desert2 = 225, // seen in dak'fron
            Mountain = 226,
            Rainforest = 227,
            Swamp = 228,
            Subtropical = 229,
            MountainWoods = 230,
            Woodlands = 231,
            HauntedWoodlands = 232 // not sure where this is?
        }

Ah okay, I was surprised, as the Ocean MapPixel features a small island without vegetation. I might have to write up some code to put vegetation there or I will treat it as flood/tide seafloor currently visible.

I would totally love for swimmable ocean implementation to a point, where we can create mods to make it work but Daggerfall Unity will stay true to the original. Having the basis for modding is never a bad idea.

I'd just treat it as a tide thing. We have these in the Netherlands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frisian_Islands. Some of them get submerged with high tide and emerge again at low tide, I think little to nothing grows on those.
