Talk:Ambient entities

"Ambient Objects"

Just going to point out, Ambient objects are already a thing. Consider renaming the part about that on this page? I assume the ambient objects you're referring to here are the small animated things that show up in backgrounds, like the mini EoC or those balloons. --2057clones (talk) 16:59, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Maybe "ambient entities"? Not sure what else could be used to accurately describe them. --Eraloiz (talk) 19:13, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

"Ambient entities" sounds fine to me. I guess a "not to be confused with" note in addition to that change would help. --2057clones (talk) 19:31, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

More suggestions to improve this page

Currently, this page is quite disorganized and incomprehensive. I have a few suggestions to help improve it:

• Instead of "ambient object", refer to the background entities as "ambient entities" (see above discussion.)
• For the "list of backgrounds", consider using a gallery of backgrounds for each biome instead of a bullet list (e.g. Forest would be a subheading, with a gallery of its backgrounds listed below)
• In general, try organizing the images. Perhaps a gallery for ambient entities would help too, maybe if there was some way to implement a viewable form of Category:Ambience images for all its ambient entities.

Those are a few suggestions I thought of. I don't know how to implement the second and third points, so I'm relying on other users to help me out. --2057clones (talk) 22:02, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

First of all, I think that ambient entities and backgrounds should be both as separate pages.

Works for me, I guess. Might have to get input from more users though. --2057clones (talk) 22:13, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Also, who will upload images of backgrounds without blocks and entities? --Superwill771 (talk) 22:08, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

I forgot that the wiki doesn't already have pictures of all the backgrounds, that's a mistake on my part. --2057clones (talk) 22:13, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

I'm going to make a "Biome backgrounds" page and move info about backgrounds from this page to that right now. --Superwill771 (talk) 22:38, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Page moved

Alright, this page is now renamed to Ambient entities. Now we can prioritise working on this one before the Biome backgrounds page I created, since it is easier. --Superwill771 (talk) 23:01, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Meteor

Should we include the Meteor that falls right before an actual meteor spawns in the world? I think it is technically ambient even though it has an impact in the game (literally lol). EvanPi314 (talk) 02:13, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

The Meteor in the background is considered an ambient entity. So it would fit in here. --2057clones (talk) 02:29, 14 August 2020 (UTC)

Thank you all. What’s next for biome backgrounds?

Hi. I’m the one who originally created this page. I don’t even really now how to make a wiki page, yet I made this because I noticed there wasn’t a page on this subject. I just want to thank all of you editors for working on this page, bringing it from an idea to an actual page. However, something needs to be done about the biome backgrounds portion of the page. Should we make a new page, or add biome backgrounds back in? Captaingc21 (talk) 04:05, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Eraloiz is uploading images of background made from extracted source files. It is still not complete. Maybe you could try finishing this. —-Superwill771 (talk) 13:06, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Slime rain

The slime rain has ambient slimes. Wikibalance (talk) 03:50, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
