Generation
When a player presses the "Create world" button on the main menu, They are shown a planet with a panel on the left showing it's seed and the options that were used to create it. By default, all sliders will be in the middle. The options given when creating a world are "World Name, Seed, Sea Level, Rainfall, Temperature, Continent Size, Mountain Height, Hills Size" and "Hills Height."
World Name
World names are pseudorandomly generated using a short list of Toki Pona nouns and adjectives to create a name. Often these names do not make that much sense when translated to English.
Trivia
- Every world in the game has a surface area of 884,279,719km2 according to a graphic posted by Dave Frampton, the developer. This is 57.6% larger than the surface area of Earth in real life.
- In colder environments like the north pole, Sapiens will wear coats to keep themselves warm.
- In hotter environments like the equator or desert, Sapiens are more likely to have a dark skin tone as they produce more melanin.
