Posted July 1, 2021 I was asked to post here as ive noticed that peat is naturally spreading and slowly consuming large areas of the map https://imgur.com/a/1Dw1wiZ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 1, 2021 If you guys can post screenshots as well as any landmarks that are near the spreading peat, it would help Devs to be able to find the area and see what the problem is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2021 Both deeds are on Cadence,both deed owners are in our alliance and can confirm this has spread naturally without any player intervention. 1st image is west of Happy Daze deed 2 nd image is looking North East from Ravenrest deed.Both areas were originally just 3-4 tiles. https://imgur.com/a/ODPGnkh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 6, 2021 More screenshots looking West from Happy Daze,the peat has now spread right to the paved tiles also added a screenshot looking East at Happy Daze to show the extent of the infestation. https://imgur.com/a/vP1mgx2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 6, 2021 I've added this to the list, thank you Cowglue for letting us know about this issue. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 13, 2021 I can confirm that this is a problem as well in Melody, my deed is surrounded by peat and it's spread all the way up my mountain where I am trying to build a highway around it, which is now completely useless. When this gets taken care of is there a possibility that GMs can change it back to stone? If it keeps up pretty much 1/3rd of my deed will be completely useless and I already took a horrible hit over the horses randomly dying after the traits and losing all my bison because of that so this is a bit frustrating for me.

Posted July 13, 2021 https://imgur.com/a/7j21lp9 https://imgur.com/a/wowWwAV That's e22 melody, I did not have that peat up in the treeline or where my guard tower is before this happened, if you need more pictures I can help out, I know where the majority of it was before this happened so if it spreads I can mostly point out where it is, this area was getting cleared for my highway hookup but I need to rethink the whole thing now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2021 Can this please be fixed, genuinely pathetic it's not been handled yet considering how damaging it can and has been. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once the fix has been applied, all the affected tiles can be converted to something more reasonable. Exactly how many tiles and where they are that is left as Peat, will be up to the GMs, but I imagine they will do their best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 8, 2021 Another bug regarding peat is that now we can forage on it. Maybe peat now is traeted like grass thus spread issues? I foraged few tiles and got garlic etc. Also, do we get any peat removal from GM side? Transmutting so many tiles would be dramatic if we need to fix this by ourselves.

Posted September 11, 2021 I previously had been told that trees and sand tiles would prevent peat spreading however a player at the Melody rift told me that peat has been spreading across sandy desert tiles for months north of his deed on Melody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 29, 2021 Any update on the peat taking over the world fiasco? Ive been trying to keep flowers surrounding em to keep it at bay but even that seems to be a losing effort as im constantly having to replace the flowers more then ever. SW part of my deed (Minas Tirith on Cad) is almost all peat, over 400 tiles now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 16, 2021 Same problem here. Trees and sand tile are not stopping it. Peat is spreading like wildfire: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 23, 2021 I have been looking at areas of peat on different servers comparing the number of tiles of peat in game with the most recent map dumps Pristine date 06/10/2021 in game 340 on map 342 coordinate pristine.yaga.host/#1045,1406 on deed Mayhemville and its perimeter Harmony date 07/10/2021 in game 179 on map 179 coordinate harmony.yaga.host/#2554,2260 off deed Cadence date 21/10/2021 in game 207 on map 207 coordinate cadence.yaga.host/#2433,2861 off deed Melody date 23/10/2021 in game 281 on map 282 coordinate melody.yaga.host/#845,1028 off deed Two have not expanded and two have expanded by one or two tiles, or I may have miscounted slightly. I don't think one data point from each server is enough to draw any conclusions I encourage you to check peat patches near you and post more data here.

Posted October 25, 2021 Seems the spread of peat has stopped or dramatically slowed but, the recent map dumps (early Oct 21) don't show how much had spread from when first started back before 1 July. If the spread has been stopped, is there no plans on helping revert our tiles back to what was before the spread? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 25, 2021 I understand the Northern Isles map dumps are from when the servers were new so they should be showing the original terrain including the peat patches. If the peat is unchanged from then until now it hasn't spread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2021 well then everyone saying it has must be wrong then I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2021 Quote well then everyone saying it has must be wrong then I guess. I'm not saying they are wrong, I have only checked a very small number of peat patches and those have not spread. I'm willing to believe that peat is spreading but since I can't check it all myself I asked for people to post some data about the locations and how much their patches of peat have spread. So far nothing has been posted to change my conclusions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Well I have no pictures to show what was there to compare to whats there now so cant give any evidence proving spread unfortunately. To transmute some of the 400 plus tiles of peat i have now on my deed will be costly Edited November 3, 2021 by SouthPaw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 3, 2021 Pictures aren't necessary. Go to a patch of peat that has spread and count the number of peat tiles, then count the number of tiles on the most recent map dump of your server. For the Northern Isles the map dumps are from when the servers were launched and for the Southern Isles from January 2021. Post your numbers here with a map link to show where you're looking.
