Giant Trees

Post by jordancoles »

I was always a little disappointed that these massive trees from Salem never actually made it into the live game. I think it would be cool to have some trees that grow to be very large, or maybe we could get a few new biomes with these big tree types

@Jorb/Loftar

I know you've mentioned in the past how trees are relatively small due to how much screenspace they were taking up.. Would it be possible for either of you to show a few screencaps of what it might look like if trees were larger the size you originally intended?

I would love it if they were larger, but the problem is, indeed, that I don't find that the perspective really allows for it.

Would it be possible to make objects that are in the way of your character transparent?

I wonder this too Ive seen other games do it.
This would also fix towers and other large buildings.
