Red actually makes a post and we get a new biome. Will wonders never cease?
Wait... how does this biome actually work? I'm not seeing a new block to carry the biome. Is it sand in the presence of water that creates the biome?
 
This is the content I have been o-aiting for. Looks great!

You are correct! If there is enough water within a certain distance, oasis plants will grow instead of cacti. The cattails will grow anywhere on sand if the water depth is right. Dragonflies will spawn anywhere near cattails.

Impressive!
 
@Redigit it's good to hear from you, sir, especially bearing news like this! I look forward to playing the new update!

I always love when you guys try out and implement new mechanics.

That is so good to hear for pre-existing builds and new environment works!
 
Well then, I know the fate of all my worlds that do not currently have deserts with water in them... :naughty:

Something I noticed and have been wondering, does this mean brown desert water is a thing of the past? Since now the water is just gonna be an oasis if there's enough of it
 
Wait, so this isn't a mirage? Cool! So now everyone's mad at their pre-1.3.6 worlds for not having this?
 
I can't wait to find a pyramid peeking through the water.
 
My God, Terraria is evolving! New backgrounds, New music, New Mini-biomes!?!? The hype is unreal!

Brown desert water is now underground only. The Desert Fountain will also make brown water.
 
Just add a Dehydrated buff in the Desert and the Oasis can be used for something lmao :dryadindifferent:
Brown water is underground because somebody broke the sewage pipes and toilet junk ended up there lol

When is that gping to come out for mobile
 
That's really interesting to hear all these new more advanced biome mechanics ! Can we expect all kinds of minibiomes ?
 
It looks wonderful
 
Oh, I guess putting it underwater is a nice compromise. I like it though because the desert is a biome that could use more love
 
:nursegrin:

Okay looks really cool
