Post offices were pretty much important until very recently.

Other uses:
* Scholars might communicate together
* Clerics would communicate with believers
* Traders might communicate together
* Diplomats would negociate with rulers

We could reuse the code for forgotten beasts to generate plants.

Might be interesting to see additional crops, plants and trees being generated: there would be more randomness to worlds, especially if, for exemple, a very high yield crop is able to live in Arctic regions.

Good work.

In addition to this, confised fruits (i.e. fruits cooked in sugar) would look like a good addition.

Honey could also be used.

More variety in dyes is a good idea, especially after fashion is made even deeper. Religion, class, administration, decorum, etc.. all need more detailled clothing.

In an old mod I made, I added several dyes and plans to add further ones once I know how to add materials and will get enough motivation to update this mod and add animal-sourced materials.

The Subterranean Water, Subterranean Chasm and Subterranean Magma biomes already exist.

Could we see this play on larger groups?

For exemple, fortreses near the sea might worship sea deities, major marketplaces might worship trade deities while militaries might worship war deities.

Another exemple: if droughts strike then farming settlemnt might pray at rain gods. Families wanting children might pray at deities of pregnancy.

We could see the wealthier settlements, realms and other organizations such as families, trade groups, guilds and temples hacing chroniclers recording events which occured to them, along with biographers for famous persons and items.

We could even simulate Dark Ages: just imagine the archives of a civilizations having been mostly destroyed through warfare, fire or floods, or biaised recordings.

Indeed, the idea could be developped, with rural households having farmplots and urban ones having shops or workshops.
