Woodland Empire changes
The latest build should provide some much needed stability for both Windows and Linux users.
I had to re-engineer some of how the simulation happens, so it's not all optimized yet but hopefully you should not see any more in-game crashes!
Some of the minor things are:
A new 4th tutorial about the cycle of life
An expensive new tornado that kills trees level 3 and above (Rips 'em right out)
A new fire simulation that should only burn down your forest - not your computer.
The sunlight simulation draft is in - Plants grow faster when they have direct sunlight
What's still coming up:
I need to re-visit some performance stuff that was re-engineered with the old, crashing code
I'll be re-balancing some of the fire attributes to better simulate brush fires that would leave older, larger trees standing just fine.
Getting to work on more plant and animal species
