{"params":{"colorway":{"type":"choice","default":"valley-green","label":"Colorway","describe":"Curated Prehistoric Valley schemes; each sets all seven zones at once. valley-green is the delivered plant: olive-green leaves with paler undersides, red-brown scales, an umber crown and an ochre cone. deep-shade is the same cycad in the gloom under the tree ferns: dark bottle-green leaves on a dark rust trunk with a near-black crown and a dull tan cone. sunlit-olive is a plant in the open: light olive leaves on a brick-red trunk with a bright golden cone. old-giant is a weathered old plant: drab olive leaves on a brown trunk with a pale cone. The ash stays the kit's one warm grey in every scheme.","affects":"colors","options":["valley-green","deep-shade","sunlit-olive","old-giant"]},"height":{"type":"range","default":3,"label":"Height","describe":"The plant's age, in metres to the tip of its seed cone (the top of the plant). REBUILT, not scaled: the trunk grows and the crown stays. The foot stays a 1.0 x 1.0 m 16-gon, the scales keep their size and their row pitch, so a taller trunk gains ROWS of scales, and the leaves and cone are the same at every height. 1 is a young plant whose rosette sits on a squat bulb of two scale rows nearly on the ground (it stands a little over a metre to its cone tip); 3 is the mature plant, a tall pineapple column about two metres high under the crown.","affects":"geometry","min":1,"max":3,"step":0.5},"climate":{"type":"choice","default":"lush","label":"Climate","describe":"The kit-wide weather, a different build at each value. lush: the full fountain of 20 olive-green keeled leaves, the inner rank springing up steeply round the cone and the outer rank spreading, all arching over toward their tips. dry: only 12 leaves live, shorter, narrower and drooping below horizontal with browned tips; the other 8 hang dead and brown in a skirt down the trunk with their halves folded shut (on a short plant they lie out on the ground), and the cone stands bare over the thinned crown. ashfall: all 20 leaves bowed further down, a crowned ridge of grey ash lying in the trough of every leaf and a grey crust over the top of the cone. The ash zone builds no triangles at lush or dry.","affects":"geometry","options":["lush","dry","ashfall"]},"tone":{"type":"range","default":0.45,"label":"Tone variation","describe":"How far each leaf and each trunk scale drifts lighter or darker than its zone colour, as no two leaves and no two leaf-base scales of a real plant match. Whole pieces shift, never single facets, in mirrored pairs. 0 is one flat green and one flat red-brown; 1 is a strongly mottled old plant whose darkest scales go umber.
