RIMWORLD TERRAFORMING UPGRADE

Conversely, you can turn rough gravel back into rough stone. It also allows you to break solid rock into rough gravel, which can be further improved into regular soil, letting you create mountain farms that can actually be plowed for maximum fertility. It opens up the ability to dump dirt into deep water to create shallow water, or to remove dirt from shallow water to produce deep water. It lets you create shallow water tiles from marsh, so you can create decorative (or defensive) moats. It allows you to turn marsh, mud, sand or shallow water tiles into farmable soil, or to turn fertile land into sand or marsh. Topsoil can be further improved by fertilizing it, but can't be plowed.įinally, 'Terraforming' represents an understanding of advanced irrigation and drainage techniques, and opens up a wide variety of terrain-altering options. Create a garden inside a mountain if you're so inclined. As well, it allows you to lay topsoil over smooth stone. Researching 'Farming' opens up the ability to plow soil, which lets you further increase the fertility of rich soil.

You can also create raw compost and turn it into fertilizer, which can be used to upgrade your soil, even turning regular soil into rich soil.

Without researching anything, 'Fertile Fields' allows you to do basic terrain modification, essentially just digging up dirt from one spot and moving it to another. New Research and Terrain Improvement Options:
