Big jump when going from -1 to -2 world temperature

Circumstances: Generating a new world.

What happened: -1 on the world temperature slider gives you regions with a summer temperature of 16–24°C around the equator. -2 world temperature gives you regions with a summer temp of -2–2°C around the equator. -3 world temperature gives you summer temps of -6–-4°C around the equator. I've tried this with multiple seeds and many different world precipitation values.

Expected behavior: Summer temps should reduce in even steps when reducing world temperature. This would make -2 world temperature give summer temps of about 6–10°C around the equator.

Can confirm; the drop in temperature seems much higher between -1 and -2 than between 0/-1 or -2/-3.

I think we can leave it for A18, because it will break save compatibility.

Itll break your save compatibility, we mere mortals arent playing A17 yet ;) (im gonna guess thats a typo)

Why Unity5, WHY do you forsake me?

Not a typo, if everything goes well A17 will be save compatible with A16.

Ison is right, it will change biomes and break saves. Moving to my notes.
