+# Exile
+Version 0.1, by Dokimi
+
+### Gameplay
+Challenging, at times brutal, wilderness survival with simple technology.
+Use your wits to find food, water, and shelter before succumbing to the elements,
+while exploring the mysterious world, and developing your capacities to endure your exile.
+
+Features:
+Player health effects: hypothermia, exhaustion,...
+Dynamic nature with: Seasonal weather, erosion, soil water flows...
+Building matters: make shelters from the rain, kilns, water reservoirs,...
+...
+
+### Gameplay Guide
+Many different strategies might work, and part of the fun is figuring out what does,
+and catastrophically does not, work.
+
+Here are some early steps you might pass though:
+1. Make basic tools, and a bag. Find a suitable camp site.
+2. Build a bed to rest in, shelter, and maybe fire for warmth.
+3. Make a kiln, and make pots. Harvest wild foods while you wait.
+4. Collect water with pots, and build up a water supply.
+5. Farm food, drugs, and fibre to build up supplies.
+6. Explore and gather resources for more advanced tools.
+
+You start in spring. Soon the hot dry weather of summer will arrive.
+Running out of water, or getting exhausted by the heat is a real risk.
+After that will come the sub-zero conditions of winter.
+Starvation and freezing are hard to avoid without preparation.
+
+
+
+
+### To Do:
+Features needed:
+-Rimworld style story-teller (for events, dynamic and unexpected challenges)
+
+
+
+Features ideas:
+
+--INTERFACE
+-remove inventory trash when not creative?
+-nameable bags
+
+--PROCESSES
+-punch with torch for firelighter?
+-boil water in pots?
+-food decay
+
+
+HEALTH
+-disease and other player effects
+
+--NATURE
+-bamboo like thing (like canes but for sticks)
+-shellfish
+-tree seedling?/sapling?/slow growth (no insta-trees!)
+-unique environ tolerances for each plant species
+-frozen wet ground (cracky)
+-fire tolerance for trees (on_burn to charred tree, regenerates)
+
+
+--MOBS
+-more mobs: hive, pack/farm animal, bird, lizard/scorpion
+-better looking dead animals, cooking
+
+--LORE/LOOT/DUNGEONS
+-artifacts (loot): a way to get map, teleporter, etc
+-lore: sentence of exile letter, bones of lost exiles, lore in geomoria
+-divide geomoria depths
+-surface ruins
+
+--TECH
+-more graffiti in more colors
+-extinguish fire to partially burnt fire (so can turn-off/on)
+-inventory on canoe
+-clothing (with effect on temp tolerance)
+-bricks and mortar (higher carry limit than mudbrick to justify cost)
+-cooking: e.g  juice (fermented)? soup? Stim drug
+-tool repair and modifiers
+-climbing pick?
+-chair (small bed rest effect, but better for crafting)
+-sailing
+-glassware (windows, bottles, distillery, solar still)
+-compost
+-bellows that displaces air_temp nodes
+-Scyth
+-a use for broken pottery,
+-bell?
+-ash crafts
+-compass
+
+--DECO
+-more ambience: rustling leaves,
+-stalactites in limestone
+-coastal sea rocks
+
+
+
+#Bugs/fix
+Climate:
+-sky twilight transition doesn't work when emerging from underground. Sky is not reset instantly like sound is.
+-weather not saved when all players leave
+-what does "fog" in weather actually do...?
+
+Bed:
+-bed rest wipes physics effects (almost a feature...)
+
+Health:
+
+
+Nature:
+-ocean flora lacks spreading (barely matters at this point)
+-might need something to animal numbers in check... needs to be run over time...
+-some spiders were getting nil energy (from egg spawning?)
+
+Megamorph:
+-megamorph dungeon_loot doesn't work (disabled)
+-megamorph would benefit from some doors and ladders nodes to use (disabled), also appropriate treasure chests
+
+Tech:
+-oil lamp doesn't remove oil from inv
+-doors ought to toggle temp_pass group on open and close
+-torches should save how much burnt when returned to inventory, and should burn when held (i.e. no infinite burn exploit)
+-grafitti would benefit from something stopping it on silly things (e.g. beds, crafting spots)
+-ropes don't go through air temp
+
+Misc:
+-might be missing credit for some textures etc
+-crafting when full inventory should drop crafts that don't fit inventory (Rubenwardy)
+-a lot of cluttering nodes could be removed from creative inventory
+-performance testing etc etc... (can get slow, all the dynamic nature stuff might be a bit much)

+
+
+Diggging:
+---------
+Values from 1 - 3, with 1 being hardest
+`cracky`: brittle, hard things. e.g. stone
+`choppy`: hard, flexible things e.g. wood
+`crumbly`: loose things e.g. sand
+`snappy`: soft, tearable things e.g. plants.
+
+
+Fire:
+-----
+`flammable`: can catch fire. Value = 1.  Use, on_burn = function(pos) for custom post fire results.
+`igniter`: can ignite flammable.
+`cools_lava`: will cool neighboring lava to basalt
+
+
+Liquids:
+--------
+`water`: 1 = fresh, 2 = salt
+
+
+
+stone
+------
+`stone`: naturally occurring hard rock
+`soft_stone`: naturally occurring soft sedimentary semi-rock, drops the sediment
+
+
+Sediment
+---------
+`sediment`: 1 = loam, 2 = clay, 3 = silt, 4 = sand, 5 = gravel. Things plants might grow on, absorbs water.
+`wet_sediment`: same as above, but soaked with water. 1=fresh, 2= salt.

+`agricultural_soil`: Gives a boost to plant growth.
+`depleted_agricultural_soil`: gives a small boost to plant growth.
+
+
+Temperature:
+-----------
+`temp_effect`: 1 = is a source of cooling or heating (node must define `temp_effect` and `temp_effect_max`.
+    See climate. Might want to use `climate.air_temp_source`. temp_effect_max is it's own internal temperature. e.g. if a fire wasn't 600C it wouldn't be a fire)
+`temp_pass`: 1 = temperature effects can be transmitted through this node (e.g. a toothpick can't shield you against fire.)
+`heatable`: Can accumulate heat/cooling from temp_effect sources that use `climate.air_temp_source`.
+    Must call `climate.heat_transfer` as part of node timer. Intended for pottery, smelting etc for direct heat transfers from fires etc.
+
+Plant groups
+-------------
+`herbaceous_plant`: Soft plant matter.
+`woody_plant`: twiggy plant matter. Can make into sticks
+`fibrous_plant`: tough stringy plant matter. Anything you might try using for string.
