• The new version of disasters is no longer a completely random concept; the occurrence of disasters is influenced by three factors: air humidity, wind speed, and temperature. This means that specific disasters are more likely to occur during particular seasons.
• As players develop the natural environment, the scale of their towns expands, leading to more severe environmental damage. Consequently, the factors affecting the environment may become more extreme, ultimately resulting in more serious disasters. (We have categorized disasters by levels; the same type of disaster can vary greatly in impact between low and high levels.)
• Of course, we've also prepared some measures to deal with disasters, to prevent or mitigate losses.
