Thanks alot Ainwood

Now lets see what's beyond the mountains

What do you mean with "Oceans: Yes"?

Why do I feel that there is a good reason to worry about that...

 

[Xerol]

It means the game contains bodies of water larger than 21 tiles.

 

[Karasu]

Yeah, but you would expect that, wouldn't you? I mean, it doesn't feel like an essential piece of information -unless there are (potentially catastrophic) implications in that little statement... and yes, I know, I like to spread panic

 

[AlanH]

"Oceans: Yes" is similar to the well-known reply to a question on boring forms: "Sex? .... ".

I think Ainwood is trying to develop a "Man of Mystery" profile.

 

[ainwood]

You're on to me!



Or maybe not.

Geology: 5 Billion years (give or take...)

...355 Million 400 thousand. I can tell from the erosion.

 

[solenoozerec]

Why oceans are so important? I do not mind to play a map without oceans.
The only problem with lack of oceans is that it means a lot of land.
'Oceans: yes' may mean 40% or 50% of water.
