      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Sandstorms

4 posts in this topic

Well, there are coming more and more suggestions to make life harder like landslides and storms and thirst and such, thats why I suggest the following.

Sandstorms

Why sandstorms? Because they occur naturally in deserts and because alot of those suggestions don't apply to deserts. Even thirst, because finding a pool of water is quite easy in deserts, and in my desert 7 biome, there are gigantic 1 block deep lakes. There is no rain or dirt either, so landslides won't occur in a desert. A sandstorm however is a very hard storm, able to move sand (obviously). This would mean its able to move sand blocks, effectively burrying your house, and covering up pools of water, effectively making a desert what it is supposed to be like: a desolated wasteland.

Sounds epic to me! I think snow biomes could have a similar effect with Blizzards as well.

My wonderment on this would be, ok the wind blows from east to west.. So after 2-3 good storms all the sand is piled up on the west side of the map??

You'd need to do something about that, erosion doesn't work well, if you don't wholly simulate it.

I guess what you'd have to do is make it work like snow, except it we call the sand's 'melting,' settling.
