Duke Arioch Posted February 16, 2023 Report Posted February 16, 2023 Does anyone know if there is a temperature drop at high altitudes and what the formula might be? I want to go south so that I can grow evergreen fruit trees, but would like to have a very tall mountain nearby that is cold enough to snow and engage vernalization for my other fruit trees, such as cherries.
BenLi Posted February 16, 2023 Report Posted February 16, 2023 Yes, the highlands are very cold - up to glacier ice generated on mountain tops. The empiric (my personal estimation) is that the decrease is ~0.1deg per one block height. So if you have 40deg on the sea level of 110, you will have ~20deg and winter snow/frost on height of 210. You want height that has ~20-27deg in summer. PS Right now tested it and got 10deg difference on 70 blocks height difference. 1
Solution Streetwind Posted February 16, 2023 Solution Report Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) Yes, temperature currently changes at a rate of 0.667°C per block height difference (says Tyron on Discord), colder at high altitudes, warmer at low ones, independent of total world height. Note: 1.18 is likely to make changes to this formula, as there is a worldgen revamp coming with it. Edited February 16, 2023 by Streetwind 1
