v0.34 Talk:Cedar

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Those raw comments listing the tree things were based on were added due to my research, as part of a project to give DF more realistic material properties. Since then, some have complained about the choice of cedar, saying that something like the Lebanon cedar (Cedrus libani) would have made a better choice. It makes exactly zero in-game difference, though, because the wood density for both species is almost identical. I am working on further suggestions to improve the state of trees in game on the suggestions forum, though. In the future, I will likely recommend using Cedrus libani as the basis rather than Tabebuia spp., though it's up to Toady whether or not he agrees with that, of course.
