Overcoming the Temperate maps is crucial in Terra Nil’s mission to restore the planet. Despite their seemingly simple layout, achieving a flawless score requires strategic use of irrigators and tailored habitat construction for the six distinct animal species. This instructional guide for Terra Nil is a comprehensive resource that offers detailed information on how to build each environment, create habitats well-suited for the animals, and expertly recycle the map to complete the level.
To initiate the River Valley level in Terra Nil, it is recommended to begin by placing Turbines strategically throughout the map to ensure comprehensive coverage. Spacing them out facilitates the positioning of Toxin Scrubbers and Irrigators. As stated in the guide for beginners, arranging the components of Irrigator in a configuration similar to Tetris can offer the most comprehensive coverage. The following example demonstrates this technique.
For optimal irrigator placement in the River Valley level of Terra Nil, it is suggested to prioritize Turbine placement before Toxin Scrubbers and Irrigators. Moreover, incorporating pumps in the water channels can aid in expanding greenery. This strategy can ensure the most efficient use of each irrigator placement.
To progress to the second stage in Terra Nil’s Temperate map, certain quantities of Fynbos, Forest, and Wetlands must be present. Fynbos can be produced by placing a Beehive on a tree surrounded by grassland, and there will be three or four trees on the map already. Another way to utilize the Solar Amplifier is to initiate fires and create more ash, which can then be employed to generate additional trees by setting fire to the Fynbos. Wetlands can be created by placing a Hydroponium on an Irrigator near water.
To progress in Terra Nil, players must create habitats for six different animals: Deer, Frogs, Bears, Geese, Beavers, and Wolves. Players should scan vast grassy areas for spawning Deer, while Frogs require Fynbos and Wetlands combination to breed. Bears need a hill, a Forest, and a beehive to create their habitat, while Geese require a lake, which is only available in some map generations. Beavers require a large river and some trees, whereas Wolves need a Forest where Deer have already spawned nearby. Players can use the Solar Amplifier to burn areas and create forests or Fynbos, depending on the animal. Creating habitats for all six animals is crucial to achieving 100% completion in the Temperate maps.
Players should follow a few simple steps to recycle the Temperate maps efficiently. First, they should place recycling solos to clear out any buildings in the area. Once the forms are cleared, the drone dock can be set to collect the silos. As the game progresses, players gain access to monorails, which can only be placed on rocky terrain. They can also use the excavator to create water channels, allowing them to reach previously inaccessible areas. By following these steps, players can easily recycle their maps and move on to the next stage of the game.
The Abandoned Quarry challenge map is unlocked once players have successfully completed all four regions. It is a more difficult version of the Temperate map. To complete this map, it is essential to have a considerable amount of flat land near water to create the required amount of Wetlands.
To achieve this, players must use the seismic detonator in the central part of the map and then place Irrigators on the lower ground. Generating enough humidity through the Cloud Seeder to reach the rain stage is crucial to filling in the remaining areas of the terrain. Using the seismic detonator can also help create larger water areas. The only way to grow trees on this map is by first using the Dehumidifier to burn the ground and then using the Solar Amplifier to ignite a fire on the scorched earth. This process is necessary to obtain trees on the Abandoned Quarry map. Check out the image below for a better understanding of how it works.
You can employ several methods to recycle buildings in the game, including drones that fly or operate on water. However, it’s noteworthy that upgrading your drone to fly mode will prevent you from using it as a boat. To begin the recycling process, starting with buildings near water sources is advisable. Additionally, you can utilize the monorail and rockhopper features to establish new areas where your drone can fly to and recycle buildings effectively.
