MOD | This page includes mods. The content is not part of normal DF as released. Changing game files can sometimes cause unexpected results, and should always be done with care and caution. |
This is a table of the real-life growths and growth seasons of plants found in Dwarf Fortress. It is a work in progress.
The values in this table will be incorporated into the Expanded Plants mod. Please feel free to help with the research!
Resources for tweaking plants:
Wild biome distributions at Modification:Expanded_Plants/Biomes. All biome tokens at Biome token.
Reference table for mapping ticks to seasons at Modification:Expanded_Plants/Timing.
Color values and color tokens at Color#Color values.
Reaction snippets at Modification:Expanded_Plants/Reactions.
