Terraria worlds finally loop horizontally ─ They aren't flat anymore, Planet World connects edges!

[@pavlo6415]

Imagine how painfull would it be if world evil would spread from one ocean to another

[@elio7610]

Does not sound that extreme to me, i think my attempt to contain corruption is far more impeded by underground contamination than a looping world would ever cause.

Maybe have a magical border that prevents evil spread

[@CrazyContraption]

Hi friends, Author of OreExcavator here. We're currently working on a side project called "Land Looping" which does exactly this with a bit of extra polish and shine I see folks yearning for in the comments. It's a bit of smoke and mirrors, adjustments to AI pathfinding and choice making, and some other small tweaks. But the effect is a pretty seamless transition over world borders. No camera shifting, no fades to black, no jank. Doesn't even change anything about your world so world size, complexity, mod biomes, etc. have no impact on the mod. Even shows blocks on the other side. Complete with liquid cross-flow, wires, and being able to place blocks between sides. This even includes corruption/crimson spread if you're that unlucky! ;) AI and bosses even take this into account when locked onto a player. For example a boss will no longer despawn when crossing the "borders" to the other side of the world. Our only issue is that while borders reflect tiles, they do not reflect enemies as of yet among a few other issues. Before you ask, yes it's multiplayer compatible, mod compatible, probably won't be released until tML hits 1.4.4 release, and we are looking for potential testers! If this really sounds interesting to anyone - reach out!

Terraria 2, however was stated by the dev team to be "certainly one of the possible paths they might take, we are actively considering others" I.e they're most likely gonna make another game or two first, and in 10-15 or so years it is likely we'll have ourselves Terraria 2, in the flesh

[@RaphaelStar7]

I really like that idea! Even if the transition isn't the smoothest, it is really cool! Some mods could use that idea, paired with the subworld library mod and make an entire bottomless ocean (or giant sulphurous island) with both side of the screen teleporting to each ocean of your main world!

[@Cramslor]

Now all we need is a mod that transfers your character to a new terraria world after leaving the edge. Like imagine you're just running along, going through the jungle, and you reach the ocean. You get to the other side, run onto the land, and you just see ANOTHER jungle! You quickly realize this is a completely different world. That would genuinely be crazy if it was real!

[@MaxerV19]

The transition and the loading screen wouldn't make it very seamless, and rendering both worlds at the same time to make it more seamless will cause lag

[@mcpecommander5327]

@@MaxerV19 a small world is, well, pretty small, so you could probably hold 2 of them in memory at a time, and when you get close to the ocean it can start to load in the next world so that by the time you get there it can be seamless

[@MaxerV19]

@@mcpecommander5327 yea true but what if ur fast

[@glauberglousger6643]

This wouldn’t really make sense in game lore as each world is an island So it’d be more like, traveling left or right goes to different worlds, but you don’t need to go to the main menu Of course to simulate an ocean, you could just have one of the worlds in between two islands be entirely water this would be quite interesting for a mod...

[@Mihe4770]

There is a sun, moon and stars (at night) which implies the world is bigger than an island. Given there are visible stars at night, we can at the very least say that the world is galactic in size with a cluster of stars. Also the fact that the sun sets in the horizon suggests that the world isn't flat either. We are just viewing the world from game restrictions, not lore implications.

If its an island then how does the underworld work, and what about floating islands in game?

[@glauberglousger6643]

@@VeryRGOTI the underworld is also bigger Even the background of it shows it being much, much bigger It’s also not restricted by each world being an island, why we can’t pass the borders, I don’t know (game limitations, not lore) Floating islands are probably the least of anyone’s concerns considering we have walls of flesh and corruptive biomes

[@YandexDan]

Someone should add a secret biome beyond the borders. Like "The farlands" or something.

Make it just an ocean for like 2000 or so blocks and then new biome

[@someperson7491]

there is a semi "farlands" in the game, but it's just 2 vertical lines of bad generation.

[@Gustf2]

the far lands is 7 dirt blocks on the left side

[@heyj64]

How about we call it something like: Borderlands

[@thebigiron2950]

One thing I always thought would be perfect for Terraria is a Noita-Like world loop, where at the other end of the ocean is a mirrored version of your world. It wouldn't have anything you built, but would keep everything you've unlocked like the dungeon or chlorophyte. It would also 'reload' any natural chest spawns, basically giving you another chance at getting rare chest drops without having to make an entire new world! The other main difference could be that ore and corruption are switched as well! The best way to explain it would be that if your 'main' world is Crimson with Iron and Mythril, the 'mirror' world would have Corruption with Lead and Orichalcum. It would keep going practically infinitely, switching ores and corruption each time, but if you use a recall potion (or, y'know, die), it would send you back to your Main world, no matter where you set your spawn point in the Mirrored worlds.

[@z9nc982]

maybe you could have the big walls on the edges of the world like in noita as well you have to dig through to provide extra risk challange to getting to parallel worlds

[@Ezdine_G8261]

amazing game

[@krauterlikor]

i usually explained it to myself that every terraria "world" is an island on a giant planet. That makes the most sense lorewise

[@snottytoe6957]

I do wish there was a mod that extends the world out into super deep ocean. calamity has the abyss, but its' really just more of a giant hole or trench in the world. I want the ocean to extend out super far.

[@Ryntra7]

I wish there was some sort of mod or even secret seed for this. I'm surprised there isn't one already.

[@Reragi]

endless escapade technically covers that but thats still heavily in development..

[@Nykodemo]

I remember back in middle school I came up with the idea for a minecraft mod something like this, where yo could go to one border of the world and loop back to the other. Of course, since it's practically impossible to reach, I also (in my mind and fake scenario) made the word smaller. I called the concept "tiny world"

[@GitGudWO]

DUDE this mod would be a GREAT QoL mod in playthroughs! Thanks for giving it a spotlight!

[@joskcito]

I started a playthrough with my friends and mods, for some weird reason we spawned in the right down corner of the world, so going to the left takes 2 times longer than a normal world. Maybe this could be a funny way to solve the problem haha

[@gaspin4048]

It would be cool if there was a mod that made it so that the world loops around itself so that you can go from one ocean to another without teleporting, simulating the effect of an actual planet

[@itzslonk]

[@Greywander87]

It would also be neat to get vertical looping. I've wanted to see an "underside" biome, where it resembles playing with reversed gravity, with the ground above you and an empty sky below you. Ideally, Hell/The Underworld would actually be at the center of the map, and going deeper would gradually reverse the biomes going through a cavern and underground layer until you reach the underside "surface". Falling off of the underside would loop you back around to the top of the "overside". While it would be hard to reflect this with in-game physics, I imagine a world like this having a gravitational field that resembles magnetic field lines, where falling off the very edge actually causes you to loop back around in a tight circle, and the closer to the center of the island you are, the wider the circle of gravity is. This means that buildings would need to curve away from the island's center in order to follow the curve of gravity, and the curve would get more exaggerated the farther from the center you were. You could actually build a tower so high that it would curve all the way around to the underside. This would also help to conserve resources like water and atmosphere, rather than just having them endlessly leak off of the island into the void of space.

[@survivalist2607]

You mean you want to be able to dig to the other side of the planet and see where you end up?

[@Greywander87]

@@survivalist2607 Sort of, but instead of a spherical planet where gravity points inward towards the center of the planet, I'm thinking something like a flat disc-shaped world where gravity always points down, even on the underside of the disc.

[@DMGSL]

All fun and games until you teleport during a Fishron or Leviathan [Calamity] fight. (I would not suggest using this mod on calamity as you would go from the polluted Sulphurous Ocean to the clean Ocean.) Edit: I made this comment only halfway though so this comment is moot.

[@invalid_user_handle]

I've always theorized about making a mod that allows you to 'string' together worlds by warping you between them after you go off the ocean's border, so you could go to one large world with crimson to another large world off the coast with corruption and vise-versa. Of course I don't have the technical expertise for it, and making a smooth non-teleport transition would be _way_ more hassle than it's worth...

[@acevictorium__]

[@antenym8947]

They should make it so the world is connected with the camera following at the edge over to the other edge as if there was no edge.

[@nick72486]

I hoped it would look like the world is actually connected, not as if you simply teleported
