Rivers and floods

Hi There,

Great game! Very relaxing.

It just occurred to me recently that I have not seen any rivers or streams in the environment. That means that there is no flooding. While I do like my village, I also think the challenge and setbacks that floods could have in the game could be very entertaining. You could also include earthworks, dikes, and eventually dams to help mitigate the threats of floods.

TBH I don’t know how hard that would be to include in the game engine. I could see how it could introduce too many moving parts. It could be done similar to droughts where there is a screen effect, but no visual of the flood, just the after effects (damaged structures etc). Happy to play test that feature!

It is too early to implement it now. This is because terrain changes and rivers require too much effort to implement. Let’s talk about it once the early access is over. Still, it’s a good opinion.

Thanks! Looking forward to the Spring release of V1!

Devs said a while back that natural disasters weren’t in the game.

I am sure I had lakes rise and flood surrounding areas a year or so back.
