Not So Temperate Generator

Not So Temperate Generator

This generator creates mixed narrower & wider rivers and well-defined mountain range with very flat areas in between.

It is still WIP but functional and safe to use (lots more options and tweaks still to come).

The reason I made this was that I found the vanilla generator and other modded generators didn’t create very scenic and practical maps because the transitions between highland and lowland were too gradual & ‘bumpy’ for my taste. Also, I wanted to have more control over rivers; especially their widths.

New Features & Changes
Winding rivers (v1.2)
Somewhat better mountain-density calculation
Mountain ridge curvature (v1.3)
Removed minimum mountain height (now fixed at 150m)
Wider rivers than before (v1.3). I cannot make them wider than this because then they will start to deform.
Bigger chance of (more) branching rivers.
Changed the name of the mod.

Mountains
Higher mountains (up to 1500m) with a more distinct transition between flatland and cliffs.
If you enable snow tops in the mod settings (on by default) mountain tops will be covered in snow above ~750m.
Control over mountain range curvature.

Rivers
Rivers can be much narrower and wider than vanilla. (Keep in mind that ships cannot navigate very narrow rivers.)
Wider rivers are also deeper.
Lake generation in rivers can be disabled.
More rivers.
Curved rivers.
Random river widths.
Winding (zig-zag) rivers.

Rocks
Option to disable scattered rocks on the map; completely, or keep them along rivers.

Trees & Forests
Amount of scattered forests can be set (forest density does not affect lone trees).
Forest density also affects the density of forests along mountain ridges.
When set to 0, no trees will generate at all.
The treeline (height) on mountains can be controlled.

TODO:
Scattered lakes (outside rivers).
Translations.
Mod option for more rock (mountain) textures?

Important
If you enable the snow caps option, they will also appear in the (temperate) vanilla generator and any other modded generator that uses the temperate climate.
