Terrain types

Main article: Terrain

The terrain of Shartak is diverse, consisting of types such as jungle, swamp, and beaches. Each type of terrain affects the movement and searches of players differently.

Details

A detail appears as a separate icon over the underlying terrain color. There can only be one detail in any location. For example, if there is a tree or bush or ruins or hut in your current location, then you cannot construct a signpost.

Heavy jungle conceals detail features. If you chop down enough jungle to reveal a fruit tree, bush, hut, or other detail, you receive an XP reward.

Fruit trees and bushes

All fruit trees and bushes use the same icon and thus look the same from a distance.

A search at a location with a fruit tree or bush is an attempt to search specifically for fruits or berries, not an attempt to search the surrounding jungle for other items. Either you find a ripe fruit or berry or you do not, but you cannot find a non-fruit where a fruit tree or bush stands.

It is unknown whether different fruit trees and bushes have different find rates. It is unknown whether the density of the jungle affects the find rate (some believe that clearing the jungle slightly increases the find rate). Please submit data to Search Odds Condensed.

• Search cost: 1 AP
  • Approx find rates (55%): fruit/berry (55%)

Berry bushes

Outsiders see "a bush covered in berries." For natives (or outsiders with Native Knowledge), the bush is revealed as either a tasty berry bush where each berry heals 2 HP or a poisonous berry bush ("a thorny bush covered in berries") where each berry inflicts 2 HP damage. This information can also be gleaned by eating a berry. Searching provides a ready source of berries.
