That’s a known problem – the data gets corrupt for some unknown reason. Will take time to fix.

Another update:
I’ve made new world in single player and it seems to represent landscape right, however i’ve getting a crash:

Interesting idea, if a bit rough at the moment. The slopes make it look awkward, methinks. Will try this out when I have a bit of time.

It looks awful!
Please just do it as in minecraft.

Also, good job making this game!

Also, I need to point out such problems (tested on kray’s server) like:
+ height of the farmesh are way too high;
+ it is not accurate at all (if it works on based landscape at all);
+ high mountains on the water o_O or in other places where they not standing in reality at all;
+ no smooth transition (far (sky/water) and near player);
+ question of fog
+ trees on farmesh look weird

Despite of the fact that farmesh needs further assessing I would thank you for providing us with this feature.

I have a problem with it. Look http://ompldr.org/vOTRrdQ (position near 830 1 68 on the krays server). It also lowers fps to 14-18 fps vs 32-36.

Well done here!
It looks a bit too “rough” IMO at the moment but I’m sure there are ways to improve the visual render of this. Anyway it’s clever of you! Thanks :)
