It doesn’t matter too much, as long as there’s one close enough to spread the forest onto the level where the Animal Observatory will sit.īefore you create the Boreal Forest tiles, use the Irrigator to create Greenery tiles. Depending on where you place the buildings on the hill, will change the Building Husk piles that are used for the Arboretum to create the Boreal Forest. Next, you’ll want to start by creating Greenery tiles on the top of the hill and in the dirt of the newly formed land. This is the first phase 2 biome requirement met. The goal of this is to have the land move to be a sheer cliff into the Kelp forest tiles that you created on the ocean floor nearby. Click on the Monorail Node near the Radial Excavator, and then place the Radial Excavator near the ocean.

Once the Radial Excavator is used, it is full of dirt and you can move that dirt elsewhere with the Monorail Nodes. To start, I used the Radial Excavator to both create a lava lake and get dirt from elsewhere on the map. Once in phase 2, it’s time to start the work to get the achievement. For myself, I left this corner of the map alone after using the Seismic Detonator to create the lava ‘lake’ around the fissure on the hill, placed a Geothermal Plant on the hill, then left that corner well alone so I would have more room to work during phase 2 to earn the achievement. I don’t know if the tiles in the corners next to the Animal Observatory count, as I counted the ones that were sharing a full side.Ĭomplete phase 1 as normal for the map. If it doesn’t, hover your mouse over the tile for a moment to check which type of tiles are nearby, and make sure that the tiles state “Boreal Forest”, “Lichen”, “Tundra”, and “Kelp Forest”. If done correctly, you should earn the achievement shortly after you place the Animal Observatory. If you have the hill and easy access to the ocean, it’s easier to earn this achievement. With the Volcanic Glacier map, there’s a small hill in the bottom corner of the map, that will have at least one Fissure on the top of the hill. I’ve seen users say that either the Tropical Region maps are easier, but I earned mine with the Volcanic Glacier map. I ended up referencing this guide to figure out how this works. As long as there are enough buildings, they should all burn and earn you the achievement.Ĭonstruct an Animal Observatory at the intersection of 4 different tier 2 biomes This achievement was the hardest of them all to earn. Use the Solar Amplifier to light a Fynbos tile on fire, and it will cause the entire area to burn, stopping only at the map edge, a cliff face, a River tile, or a Wetland tile.

( Note: any building will burn unless it is on rocks.) Count how many buildings you have already in the area, and build the remaining you need to get to 25. If you have a Dead Forest tile that was revived into a Forest tile, use the Beehive to create Fynbos into the land space you want to burn. This should get you to the point to unlock the second phase, and unlock the Solar Amplifier, the Beehive, and the Arboretum (if needed). Progress through the region, using the Toxin Scrubbers to get fertile soil and then the Irrigators to create greenery. You’ll want the region to have a nice medium to large area that is on the same level, all connected, and preferably with a Dead Forest tile already nearby. Frustrating, but easier than having to restart the entire region multiple times.Īnd onto the achievements! I hope this helps!īurn down 25 buildings with a single fire I was able to earn this on the first map unintentionally so I’ll be using the River Valley for this guide, but you can also do this on any map with the Solar Amplifier and fuel source to create a wild fire. Or, like myself, you might mess up something and can’t undo the action, so you may need to restart the phase. Some achievements will be easier or harder depending on the map generation, so you may have to restart the region a few times to get a good map. If you need help with those, here’s my guide Every Region’s Scan Collection List. Some achievements require finding all the animals and will be noted with an asterisk ( * ) at the start of the achievement name. Harder achievements that require some work or certain map design will be at the end of the list. The entire guide will be in order that you can easily complete, with most achievements being earned by completing a milestone within the game. So thus, I decided to compile an achievement guide since I personally go for 100% achievement completion in games. Thank you for reading this guide! I hope this helps a lot, and please let me know if there’s anything I can improve within this guide! When creating this guide, there were less than five other guides for Terra Nil.
