A planetary room can be muddy or clean. A planetary room is usually clean.

M3, M5, and M1 are muddy.

A planetary room has a text called landscape. The landscape of a planetary room is usually "".

The landscape of M4 is "Wind whistles around you and there's solid rock underfoot. [if the previous place is not a planetary room]You can feel a magnetic field here. [end if][planetary room directions]. [if the location is visited]Up above is where you came from.[end if]".

The landscape of M9 is "An idyllic valley nestles against rolling hills on three sides and a secluded beach on the fourth. [planetary room directions].".

The landscape of M8 is "Foothills emerge from the warm sand that softens the coastline. [planetary room directions].".

The landscape of M10 is "Hilly. [planetary room directions].".

To say planetary room description:

if the landscape of the location is not "":

say "[landscape]";

else:

if the location is wet:

if the location is northmost:

say "Cold water.";

else if the location is meridian:

say "Cool clear salt water and cool clear salt air. ";

else if the location is southmost:

say "Cold water.";

else if the location is desiccated:

say "";

say "[planetary room directions]. ";

if the location is muddy, say "[mud hint]".

To say mud hint:

if the visitedness of the location is greater than one and the ball of mud has not been carried:

say "There is some auspiciously takeable mud here.";

else:

say "You subconsciously dig your toes a bit into the rich clay at the water's edge."

To say planetary room directions:

let W be a list of directions;

let D be a list of directions;

repeat with that way running through directions:

if the room that way from the location is a planetary room:

if the room that way from the location is desiccated:

add that way to D;

if the room that way from the location is wet:

add that way to W;

if the location is desiccated:

if D is not empty:

say "The continent continues to the [D][run paragraph on]";

if W is not empty:

say ", and t[run paragraph on]";

else if W is not empty:

say " T[run paragraph on]";

if W is not empty:

say "he ocean lies to the [W][run paragraph on]";

if the location is wet:

if W is not empty:

say "The ocean extends to the [W][run paragraph on]";

if D is not empty:

say ", and d[run paragraph on]";

else if D is not empty:

say " D[run paragraph on]";

if D is not empty:

say "ry land lies to the [D][run paragraph on]".
