Shallow water for desert is ready:

Animation: desert_shallow_water.jpg

You see we have a uncommon thing: The animals walk on this terrain if it is defined as "dry" and it looks ... hmmm face-grin.png Thats why we decide to make it impassable for now (nothing can walk) since we have a new definition of such terrains. But "impassable" has another problem: fish couldn't be set as a resource to this kind of terrain. With a new definition this should be solved.

I've made a branch which gets updated if new impassable terrains are available.

New terrain type looks good for me face-smile.png Nice work! But it shouldn't be like swamp (for me): one tile distance can be passed, but more- not. Animals can't walk there too. Trees can be planted. Only fish is a problem: do we want to put there any fish?

If you talk about the new terrain (not swamp), i think fish should be a valid resource because its a sort of water. May there are some reasons to not make fish a valid resource, i do not know them face-smile.png

+1 fish also for me to add terrain variety. otherwise, if it is impassable to people and boats, it is no different from swamp, and if it is unpassable to boats but not people, it is no different from desert or beach.

After some weeks of fiddling and testing other programs and trying to get into gimp python-fu i will provide a new impassable water for Wasteland: Algae slick....

in game.png

As for desert this pattern is animated too: in game.png

With the roads on this terrain the eyes get irritated to see some of the roads are waving too... but of course they didn't really face-wink.png

This looks great face-smile.png

I'm still fiddling with the terrain properties. It's all a bit tricky, because units don't act on terrains, but on the nodes between them.

@kaputtnik, great work to introduce something like that. But in my oppinion it is too green. Can it be more gray than green? (Is it a problem to change a bit colors?). Most terrain types in wastelands are gray or black.

I could try making it a bit gray. What is your opinion: Only the green areas or only the brown areas or over all?

I am sure you will find a solution face-smile.png
