Attribute Unit Terrain type Description
ROOT_DEPTH_M m Surface The depth of the roots of this surface terrain, relative to the surface. Water can be drawn from the underground and evaporated if the roots can reach it.
WATER_EVAPORATION_FACTOR factor Surface How fast this terrain can evaporate water from the underground. The weather's evaporation speed is multiplied by this factor to determine the rate of evaporation.

Plants

Terrains can be configured with plant-related attributes, similar to crops and foliage constructions, allowing it to draw water from the underground and evaporate it.

Notes

  • When a construction is present in any given location, the values for evaporation of the construction will overrule any values set by terrain in the same location. This is also true if the construction has its evaporation values set to 0; they will overrule the terrain's values and thus not allow evaporation of underground water to occur.
