We are excited to have the survival mod active on Vrystoria. The goal is to enhance the realism and roleplay without breaking the game. Here is some information regarding how the mod works. The mod writer's description is well written and the applicable portions are quoted below.
"The mod takes into account the time of year and the altitude, as well as the north/south position. This generates a temperature value."
In the spring and fall the days are usually warmer and nights cooler so plan to build a fire and stay inside at night. In the winter days are cold as well. The wurm calendar will help you prepare. www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Time_of_Wurm
On Vrystora the impact of the temperature will be toggled on in the month of Omen and back off in the month of Saw.
When the temperatures get cold enough players can take damage from the cold in the form of ice wounds. There will be plenty of warning before you begin taking damage, and a forge, fireplace, campfire, and an oven generate heat and will warm you back up.
"Each crop has a minimum temperature that it requires to grow.
The crops are grouped into five broad categories:
Coldest: Potatoes, garlic, onions
Cold: Carrots, cabbage, sugar beat, peas
Normal: Barley, wheat, rye, oats, reeds, lettuce
Warm: Corn, pumpkins, wemp, strawberries, tomatoes, cucumber
Warmest: Cotton, rice
So, the growing seasons will be longer in the south and shorter in the north. The crops towards the top of this list will have longer growing seasons, so are probably more suitable for people farming in the north."
