===Soil Types===
Different types of soil are found in different places in the world and vary based on the climate. Five different types of soil exist in the world at different fertility rates: bony, barren, low, medium, and high (called "terra preta"). Each type has the following starting levels of nutrients, respectively: 0%, 5%, 25%, 50%, 80%. Soil retains its fertility levels when removed and placed elsewhere. Players can find deposits of terra preta in mild and hot areas with enough rainfall, mostly on plains and low hills. Specifically, terra preta requires:

Specifically, terra preta requires:
* rainfall: 0.5 - 0.9  
* rainfall: 0.5 - 0.9  
* temperature: 5 - 37  
* temperature: 5 - 37  
* maximum Y level: 0.53
* maximum Y level: 0.53, and terra preta seems to follow the the soil surface at a depth of 1<br>
 
Barren soil is found in some above ground ruins, but is a rare occurrence. Bony soil may be found buried below ruins, has no farming nutrients, and will not grow grass.
