No meteorite?...

[Pak0tac]

So i started a large world, took out 2 shadow shperes, had the goblin army attacking already, but thats it, no meteorite? while waiting, i already killed the eue of cathulu, explored most of the jungles, did some fishing, got myself some advanced pre-hardmode armor and weapons, and still, no meteorite :p

also, how come in a large world, there are none of those large sky trees? not a single one :(

1. Most likely landed on the edge of a Floating Island somewhere.

2. Bad luck, I've had small worlds with three living trees and large worlds with not a single one. EDIT: There are plenty of living trees in the underground Jungle, though they're much smaller.

is there a message from system "A Meteorite has landed !" or something like that?

[Delthea]

Pop one shadow sphere, wait until midnight, 50% chance of "a meteorite has landed".
Pop a second shadow sphere next day, wait until midnight, 50% chance of "a meteorite has landed".

If you popped a sphere during the day, 50% chance of a meteorite. If you did not pop a meteorite that day, much lower chance of meteorite.

Before a shadow orb has been smashed, you have a 1% chance to have a meteor hit every day at midnight. After a shadow orb is smashed, it becomes a 2% chance every day at midnight.

More importantly, what Ami Futami said is also true. If you're serious about getting a meteor, smash more orbs.
