Earth Climatology

In TerraFirmaGreg, the climate and the time are both very important factors in the way you experience the world. Seasons will pass on a cycle affecting local weather and crop growth, as well as your own ambient temperature. Be careful to understand the climate and the geography of your area before deciding to settle down.

Calendar

The Calendar can be viewed at any time by pressing E, and clicking on the calendar tab. It is important to note that the effects of seasons will be inverted when crossing equator lines, such as at Z=10000.

Seasons

There are four seasons in TerraFirmaCraft, and the weather and climate will change along with them! Each season is divided up into Early, Mid and Late months. The four seasons are:

• Spring: March - May
• Summer: June - August
• Autumn: September - November
• Winter: December - February

The current season can influence the temperature of the area, the precipitation (if it will rain or snow), and the environment itself such as leaves changing and more. Pay attention to the calendar tab, it will be useful!

Climate

Another tab on the main inventory screen is the Climate screen. This one shows information about the current location

• The first line shows the overall Climate↪.
• The second line shows the Average Annual Temperature.
• The third line shows the Average Annual Rainfall.
• And the last line shows the Current Local Temperature.

Temperature

Current Temperature in TerraFirmaCraft is influenced by a number of factors:

• Firstly, the region--Especially the latitude--Will play the largest role and is recorded as the Average Temperature.
• Secondly, the current season will influence the temperature.
• Thirdly, the temperature can be different day to day as well as varying from hour to hour.
• Lastly, temperature varys in elevation changes.

Annual Rainfall

Rainfall is another climate value that can vary depending on where you are in the world and determines flora growth.

Rainfall is one of the main contributors to Hydration, which is an exact measure of how wet the soil is in a given location, and is used by Crops, Fruit Trees, and Berry Bushes to determine if they can grow.
