It\u2019s currently using three layers- height, temperature, and water. Included in the screenshots are two examples with the temp on and off. I have yet to put in a visualizer for the water, but I plan on doing it at some point.<\/p>\n<p>The next major step is to get the creatures and plants in the game. This should take some time, and could take me until the entry time tomorrow. If I don\u2019t have a working game by the compo deadline, I will submit to the jam instead.<\/p>\n<p>The game is a bit laggy when the erosion updates occur, so I am considering doing multi-threading, but I don\u2019t have much experience with threads. That might have to wait til after the jam.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n<div class=\"gallery galleryid-168288 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail\" id=\"gallery-1\"><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/heatmaps-biomes-and-other-things\/cap1-4\/\"><img alt=\"cap1\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"\/data\/posts\/2012\/08\/265866bed22c29f28d401458634bc381.jpg\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/heatmaps-biomes-and-other-things\/tempon\/\"><img alt=\"tempon\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/tempon-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/heatmaps-biomes-and-other-things\/world-7\/\"><img alt=\"world\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/world-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\"\/><dl class=\"gallery-item\">\n<dt class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/08\/25\/heatmaps-biomes-and-other-things\/worldheat\/\"><img alt=\"worldheat\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/worldheat-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\"\/><\/a>\n<\/dt><\/dl>\n<br style=\"clear: both\"\/>\n<\/div>","time":"August 25th, 2012 8:35 pm","title":"Heatmaps, Biomes, and other things","title_was_empty":false}
