Version 0.0.5


Summary

In this update a new planet generation mode has been added, this can be accessed through the main menu. The new option "GENERATE PLANET !EXPERIMENTAL!" generates a world with the latest features im working on. These features are not neccessarily stable and might be buggy. This enables the user to get some ideas what im working on and what will be added next to the stable planet generation. 

In the stable planet generation temperature and precipitation layers has been added to the simulation. Realistic temperatures will be vital when the ecology simulations are to be done. In terms of evaporation i will also be important when the more realistic rain patterns will be implemented. The temperature decreases with latitude and elevation. Sediment transportation is also done, thou deposition of sediment is only done in the experimental version

What makes the experimental version unstable at the moment is the interaction between sediment and water levels. This will be fixed until the 0.0.6 version. Multithreading might also be introduced for some of the simulation steps in 0.0.6, thus reducing computation times significantly.
