Can you put bonsai on it?

Cosmetic upgrades pls. Alternative character skins with just different hairstyles would be nice.

One thing that would favor groups over lone wolves is easier healing.

Fully agreed.

Make dogs fight bears. Something like three dogs to kill a bear, and two die in the process.

Yeah, unlike the noble capitalistic Manifest Destiny or Monroe Doctrine. Native Americans and South Americans really benefited from those.

Yeah but you're going for finite world right now, which could allow more powerful mapgen options that require info from other tiles. For example, the narrow bands could be improved by using a diamond-square generated heightmap, which lets you create plateus at all sorts of elevations rather than just having solid blobs at bottom and top.

Meh, I wouldn't bother with equal distribution. I think size of biomes should be proportionate to their usefulness. I'd recommend reducing snow in favor of more grassland and badlands. And I still like the sine N-S variation, we need unequal distribution of terrain if you want to encourage trade. Or, if you can easily distinguish individual "mountains", use jungle/desert on one half of them and badlands/arctic on the other. It'd look reasonably realistic while also providing this unequal distribution. And then all the "lowlands" around these can use the same swamp/grass/prairie progression.

I think you're talking about mandatory military service, which wasn't really a career but rather something you have to do in most European countries (yes, even the Western ones). In Yugoslavia at least, you could pick which trade school or uni you wanted to go to, as long as your previous school grades and you'd get in if you were in top however many people the school was accepting that year. Then when you finish you'd get a job according to your education. And you weren't physically forced to take a job, it's just that you needed to take one if you wanted to have money for food (same as in capitalism), the main difference being that vast majority of available jobs were in publicly rather than privately owned companies.

If you're going to have finite play area, you have more options for map generation. Ie latitude bands of biomes. The map example you gave might look better if there was fewer discrete levels of terrain, but the progression terrains varied depending on coordinates. Something like swamp<grass<snow<badlands up north, swamp<grass<prairie<badlands around the middle and swamp<grass<jungle<desert down south. South misses out on iron, but gets rubber. North is kinda iffy on resources, but I think it might be OK just for oil if your town is closer to the north than south. Might have some actual trade going on if there was discrepancy in resources like that. And all the latitude bands get swamp and grass, so they're all technically livable. Fewer discrete levels means less thin bands. And I think water would look nicer if it was the lowest level rather than rings.

There are some disgustingly large clans on servers like Rustafiied EU Long (like 20 people), but yeah, for the most part you don't really see villages. And the main reason for that is that the playerbase is rightfully paranoid due to immense power of backstabbing, so I'd be careful about making griefing too viable in OHOL if you want actual villages to be the meta.

I've spent 10+ pipes drilling oil more than once.
