:There is a world gen setting for "cavern water" ranging from 1-100, also one for "force magma at bottom layer". the latter is on by default. So, dont know, maybe merge or link the articles? Maybe i´ll try a world without forced magma later. --[[User:Arin|Arin]] 08:28, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | :There is a world gen setting for "cavern water" ranging from 1-100, also one for "force magma at bottom layer". the latter is on by default.

::Maybe the "force magma at bottom layer" means the magma sea, so I don't think it is a part of the cavern, if someone doesn't disagree, then I'll remove it from the cavern page. --[[User:Tarran|Tarran]] 08:31, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ::Maybe the "force magma at bottom layer" means the magma sea, so I don't think it is a part of the cavern, if someone doesn't disagree, then I'll remove it from the cavern page. --[[User:Tarran|Tarran]] 08:31, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ||

:This page should stay, since it is larger and more specific, and 'Cavern' is the correct meaning, 'Underworld' just means everything beneath the ground. So it is unneeded, we should just wait for Briess or someone more experienced then me to decide. --[[User:Tarran|Tarran]] 08:44, 12 April 2010 (UTC) | :This page should stay, since it is larger and more specific, and 'Cavern' is the correct meaning, 'Underworld' just means everything beneath the ground.

::One layer was muddied from the ocean, a second layer was muddied from both ocean and (non-ocean biome) aquifer, a third layer was not muddied at all (it has soil in both z and z-1 layers in both biomes). All water was drained in, not pumped (i.e. there's been no magic desalinization from pumping). And for that matter, the non-ocean-side aquifer layer is also salty. None of these layers show growth on the ocean side of the map, and the line of demarcation between veg and non-veg areas matches the border between the different soil layers exactly. | ::One layer was muddied from the ocean, a second layer was muddied from both ocean and (non-ocean biome) aquifer, a third layer was not muddied at all (it has soil in both z and z-1 layers in both biomes).

− | + | Oddly, down in cavern 1 I have a handful of dead shrubs and a few locations where the floor has been turned to soil (indicating something had grown there at some time), so I suspect (but can't confirm) that there was normal vegetation when the cavern was first penetrated, but nothing else sprouted since then. And, hmm.. that might also be true for caverns 2 and 3 - there's growth on the ocean side, but it seems to be all mature growth (no young trees), and much thinner than the other side. | |
