Is it worth having a map tiles category to relate all the individual (non construction) features of a map, such soil, sand, floors, trees, stairs, ramps, sky, unseen rock, etc.? --Markavian

I have a map with silty loam, but when I build a farm plot on this soil it says I have no seeds to plant there... Is it the soil type or the lack of seeds? It doesn't make sense, because wild plants and trees can grow on that soil type. I'm looking into it.Schm0 06:36, 21 November 2007 (EST)

I'd have said lack of seeds it will only show the crops that you have seeds for. However if your talking outdoor farms then some crops will only grow in certain biomes. --Shades 06:50, 21 November 2007 (EST)
So silty loam is an acceptable soil type to have outdoor farming?Schm0 12:32, 21 November 2007 (EST)
