What does cave moss grow on?[edit]
Has anyone done some tests to see what it will spread to once a cavern has been breached? It immediately took over my subterranean dirt floors, but not the muddy rock.
- Annoyingly when cave moss grows on mud it's not visible, you can only check if its there is with look(k).
A cave without moss?[edit]
On my current fortress I got no moss but standard "Grass" instead, in 2/2 of all cavern levels discovered so far - this makes underground tree farms impossible. Is this a bug or feature?
- If it's generic green "grass", then it's a bug. If the world was generated in version 0.31.25, then post a save file on DFFD and I'll reopen the entry on the trackerBug:4013. --Quietust 03:38, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
- It is indeed quite generic. Fortunately I was able to find yet another cavern level, which contained cave moss, floor fungus and all the other standard cave stuff. Now that you pointed at it, a terrain generation error seems obvious, as the lowest cavern contained some very strange geological formations (probably unrelated, but still a bug). I will upload the save file now.
- If there are terrain generation errors, then the save file probably isn't useful because the world itself is likely corrupted - if you regenerate it with the exact same settings (and seeds), it'll probably turn out normal. --Quietust 00:08, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
