Changes

Being able to change the landscape is one of the outstanding features of this game! The land around you is not a static environment – you can use your shovel to raise or lower the ground! This process is called “[[terraforming]]”. In a nutshell, terraforming works like this: the terrain consists of dirt “tiles” (the outlined squares you see on the ground when moving your mouse pointer over them). A tile, which can also have grass, a tree or a bush growing on it, has four corners, and each of those corners can be raised or lowered. To lower a tile corner use your shovel (stand next to the corner, activate the shovel, right-click the ground and select “dig”). You will notice that each digging action will lower the corner you are standing on by a little amount and you will find 1 piece of dirt in your inventoryor on the ground. Therefore the amount that corner is lowered by one digging action is called “1 dirt”. So, for example, if you repeat the digging action 4 times, you will find 4 pieces of dirt in your inventoryor on the ground, and the tile corner will be lower than before by “4 dirts”. You created a little slope! To raise the corner again, you can just drop the dirts from your inventory: right-click the dirt and select “drop on ground”. Please note: A corner does not belong to a single tile! Actually, there are always 4 tiles sharing a corner, so ''when you dig or drop dirt on a tile corner you will always affect all 4 tiles''!<br><br>
