The [[color]]s of a map tile may give information about that region's predominant [[biome]]: its temperature, alignment, and other handy things. Cyan or blue means the area is "good" aligned. Purple and grey/red areas have "evil" alignment. Light grey, brown, and yellow areas usually are dry and have sparse vegetation. Green tiles have vegetation and are usually moist. White tiles indicate snow.

The [[color]]s of a map tile may give information about that region's predominant [[biome]]: its temperature, alignment, and other handy things. Generally, cyan and blue means the area is "good" aligned. Purple, gray, brown, and red areas have "evil" alignment. Light grey, brown, and yellow areas usually are dry and have sparse vegetation. Green tiles have vegetation and are usually moist. White and cyan tiles indicate snow or ice. The color of trees that change season to season can tell about the tree's current [[tree#Growths|growth]].

=== Forests ===

Forests and swamps will use the map tiles of the [[tree]]s they contain. The tiles below are used to specify generic forests, even if no trees that use that tile exist in that forest. Whether the game uses the generic tiles or the tile of the actual tree they contain is randomized on a tile-by-tile basis.

Tiles can vary significantly in forests due to the variety of trees that can be generated.

Forests and swamps will use the tiles of the trees they contain. In addition, the following tiles are used to specify generic forests, even if no trees that use that tile exist in that forest.

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Tile Colors

The colors of a map tile may give information about that region's predominant biome: its temperature, alignment, and other handy things. Generally, cyan and blue means the area is "good" aligned. Purple, gray, brown, and red areas have "evil" alignment. Light grey, brown, and yellow areas usually are dry and have sparse vegetation. Green tiles have vegetation and are usually moist. White and cyan tiles indicate snow or ice. The color of trees that change season to season can tell about the tree's current growth.

Legend

Tiles are listed in by alignment, with regular tiles first, then good aligned tiles, and then evil tiles.

Name Regular Good Evil
Forests
Temperate Broadleaf Forest

Trees change with the seasons.

Trees

Forests and swamps will use the map tiles of the trees they contain. The tiles below are used to specify generic forests, even if no trees that use that tile exist in that forest. Whether the game uses the generic tiles or the tile of the actual tree they contain is randomized on a tile-by-tile basis.

Tiles can vary significantly in forests due to the variety of trees that can be generated.
