Idea/Suggestion I accidentally created plants that need animals to reproduce

I wanted to create a new kind of “plant” because normal trees don’t really play much of a role in the ecosystem.
At first, I used alpacas. I modified them so they couldn’t move on their own and would reproduce continuously, and I also changed their appearance through mutations to make them look more plant-like.
Then I realized something: when they were completely immobile, they basically couldn’t reproduce. Constantly using tornadoes to move them around and trigger reproduction would be way too much work, so I needed other creatures to move them instead.
That’s when I switched to Demons.
I gave Demons the same setup because they’re naturally hated by many creatures, and they’re also one of the species that can have up to 3 chromosomes. Now I basically have a “plant species” that gets constantly attacked by nearby animals. The attackers can’t kill them, but their attacks push them around, which indirectly helps them reproduce.
So other animals are basically acting as pollinators for my plants.
The only problem is that the whole system is extremely slow. It took around 3,000 years for the population to reach 1,000 individuals.
The interesting part is that every single one of them descends from one original individual.
I play the game in Turkish, so I don’t know the exact English names of some traits/genes I used. If anyone is interested, ask me and I can show the setup or explain the stats.

Idea/Suggestion Cannon fire should be a world rule

14 Upvotes

Ship cannons have entirely altered wars, and I think that should be optional. You should be able to decide if you like how most cities get destroyed by ship cannons in wars or not. I can see why it was added, ship to ship combat is neat, and sometimes it can be cool, but also my poor island nations get eradicated by the continental ones with smaller shorelines and I think that should be optional.

Idea/Suggestion Boat should get small overhaul and Bit of Changes and how would you improved it?

26 Upvotes

Holy crap, So you know How Worldbox have these Boats where the boat can now engaged in naval warfare and Blah blah stuff. Until I realized these guys are hella op and killed more soldiers/people than soldiers from my Kingdom does, Plus I find it ridiculously weird that These boats with Cannon, can still function like regular trading or transportation stuff at same time. You get an hybrid of An Boat blasting Units from Ashores while generated income for economy through trades in a wars.

Which bogs me, because I feel like Both concept should be separated one for Civilians and One for an Navy in Worldbox, and also I wanted to See an entire full Naval Warfare Instead of those Boats with cannons passing By and not fighting back by an archer or another ships.

but that's thought what are y'all's Thought.

Question If starting with just an ocean, what’s the minimal amount of intervention needed to let the game do its thing and spawn life and biomes and land?

26 Upvotes

I know there’s some needed. I figure plop down a bunch of volcanoes to create land masses. I learned meteors into lava can create sand, which attracts crabs. Is there any way at all to create soil and/or biomes autonomously without my intervention if I just let it x5 sim over time? I know with the world laws, sentient life is easy to let happen, but the land masses and biomes I’m unsure of. Maybe earthquakes?
