Ring of Brodgar Wiki

Was wondering why the Terrain data for Bushes was cleared and locked back in Jan 2019? I don't see an explanation here or on the Wiki. Is that still relevant?

Only thing I can think off is the fact that you can transplant bushes, you can never be certain, past the first few hours of the server, that the bush you're seeing in X terrain spawned there naturally.

What?, O that!
For one because it was hardly used. (it only had 2 cave cases (see page history))
Second, ... something to do with "manual table data" vs "subject property" data.
And last, but definitely not least. There seems to be no strict terrain vs bush-type connection, as far as I can tell at least (kinda as with boulders).
And than there is of course also vatas's point.

Ergo: That data is currently deemed not relevant (or useful).

I probably should have just removed that column, and replace it with a related terrain note. (done)

I see. Because, I have been noticing some definite terrain limitations on some, like for instance Mastic bushes, they are plentiful on many of the terrains on the central continent like Green Brake for instance, but virtually impossible to find on most all of the terrains on the Western Continent. I would think it would become apparent with an extensive survey as to the affinity for a certain terrain over others (vs unnatural transplantation) as, I suspect this is now the case. At least for some. Not that I am willing to commit to conducting such a survey, but I will continue keeping my notes and see what emerges.

Its nice to read your observations in this.

Like you said. Its something that would need some more than normal surveying.
Which unfortunately is not something many are willing, or able(available time and such) to do.

Any information can always be added/shared on the wiki talk/discussion, or the wiki personal pages (or in this topic if need be).

Page called something like "Non-obvious and highly useful control things?" (But titled in more catchy way.)

1. The SHIFT+click to peek through door or cave/dungeon entrance as an eyeball to avoid getting rekt while unable to do anything because of a load screen (link to this part in dungeon pages.)

2. You can move while holding something on your cursor by ALT+clicking (especially useful when holding a firebrand of a torch, and link to this part in said pages.)

You can move while holding something on your cursor by ALT+clicking

Have you actually checked that against the official/default HnH client

Nope, I just assumed that it's not something that Custom Client could change.

EDIT: I had to log into default for some other stuff and remembered this, it does work.

I noticed for 2 days now the wiki is down and it has been going down a lot lately... Is it monetary needs?

I think the wiki is quite lightweight and its usage is currently not so high so it's unlikely to be caused because of any performance issues. Likely problems on your part. (or who knows if the server is located in some wardrobe and sometimes rats go bite the cable?)

Suggest you check your connection. I for one have not seen any RoB outages recently myself.
