==Updating==
The [[:Category:Creature|animals]] and [[:Category:Plant|plants]] of a world are not static, but continue with their activities even when nothing else is nearby. To conserve system resources they may not be updated in detail unless they are actively viewed by a player. This can result in some interesting effects, such as [[Pine Tree|large trees]] despawning into a pile of [[stick]]s and [[wood]] or an [[ocean]] waiting until the arrival of a [[Blockhead]] to being draining into an [[Air|open]] submarine [[cave]].
