sup guys, it's been a while since last time i've been here in the forums.

anyways, i've searched for ways to travel between biomes on the forums and came up empty so i guess i'll ask here.

are there plans to allow us to travel between biomes and will we find different colonies in other parts of the world?

Common suggestion, but I personally don't know Tynan's opinion.

Some players want us to be able to move around using the ship myself included to other biomes and planets.

the majority of players want us to use the ship as a one time method to move to another place on the same world.

A few players hate the idea and want the ending to remain as is.

Imagine, after one, two, five, ten... jumps on the same world, you come back to the previous colonies, to find it's occupied by something, or someone, else. And you can try to deal with it to recover the colony. A bit like Dwarf Fortress when you want to capture back a previous fortress. So you would have no colony on this old-new map, but you would have a pack of highly trained and well equipped colonists.

Would be cool, for me.

ah, i was mostly asking 'coz i was just about to play alpha 6 right now (haven't been able to pay attention to the game development recently). but i just watched the alpha 6 update video by tynan and it brought a smile to my face as well as questions.. lots of questions.

but thanks for the info about popular suggestions/ideas by other folks here.
i guess it means, i'm stuck in whatever biome i decide to drop my colony in.
(at least, for now..)

btw, is it possible to choose a colony drop point that has multiple biomes? like finding a drop point where all 3 active biomes are present?

BetaSpectre

I haven't been that active on the game myself.

However, I'd just click around the drop point gives some Biome information.

Also there's a thread around that has some cool seeds or rather should. My Mountain area had a desert, a small oasis, and well mountains, lots of trees around.

I'd personally pick a Mountain Biome unless you get a really bad Valley, there's alot of resources.

Deserts aren't that bad either but I think ore and wood are rare.
