Title: Steep slopes...

New release is coming soon.  Here is an example of steep slopes used for shingles and steep underslopes for wood.

You can also see a few sand half-blocks.

WINNING!

Do you think natural terrain could also have slopes? That might help to visually separate Mythruna from other, similar games.

I looked at at least using the half blocks in the terrain generation but the issue is plant and tree placement.  They would always have to go on a full block.... slopes would cause a similar issue (not to mention that sloped grass looks bad with slope blocks)... this would greatly reduce the size of the forests.

When/if flora becomes separate entities and not "world blocks" then I may revisit it.

Yeah, some time in the next 24 hours if I don't get overly side-tracked by day job.

The new slope blocks don't act like slopes when you walk on them.  They are currently approximated with a box.  I may try to fix that before releasing but those things notoriously take heaps of time.
