New terrain types

Post by Gudadantza »

Hi all, I have a suggestion

What about new terrain types? We have temperate, tropical, etc... Can be added terrains?

My idea is to add new extra terrain types or subtypes options in the main menu that can be timeline related. (1900-1930, 1830-1900... etc) or planet zone related, for example USA, UK etc... the tracksets are available yet and I think it would be a great addition to the game.

In that way a lot of addons available could be united into one "terrain" in the game at once.

Greetings!

There has been some work, and I have also started something (however, I haven't worked on it in a while), but it's pretty complicated. Extra climates in the main menu would, I believe, be even harder and require changes to pretty much every part of the game.
