This mod will significantly reduce the tps for deep drilling operations(job driver).No error prompt.

Could you please increase the compatibility with Geological Landforms? Specifically, it has some nice new feaures for rivers (new forms and beach biomes), which are overridden if any river settings from this mod are used.

After activating the“unilateral movement,with the mountain range shifting significantly to one side,”all plains,swamps,and even ice fields are occupied by 40%mountainous terrain.Why does this happen?Why does the mountainous terrain appear out of nowhere?Is there any way to generate a completely flat plain?

Mountains cannot be fully removed, when I go to other maps, I always see scattered hills. Is there anyway to create perfectly flat map?

Nope, sorry.

I did try to implement that, but never got it working right. Maybe I'll revisit it someday.

@Zylleon, is there a way to make a forked river, that then comes back into itself, creating an isolated island surrounded by river?

This is exactly what I've been looking for for so many years, thank you!

I never even noticed there was water current animation in rimworld lol

That's a known issue and I can't fix it. The river flow code is very complicated and all my attempts to fix it only made it worse!

Idk if its a problem but I noticed that when manually creating rivers. Say turning a normal into a forked river, the ingame water current animation is only visible on the un-edited section. So the forks themselves are always still. I use many mods but I don't utilize water current for anything so Its never been anything more then a little immersion breaking for me. Any idea if it can be fixed?

And Vehicle Framework - I don't understand, why would it mess with map generation, but I think I've read something about that it does.

Sure :) Geological Landforms, Biomes! Islands, and I think Biome Transitions too.

Thanks for the report! I'll take a look at that.

Do you have any other mods that could affect map generation?

There is a problem with river beaches on the maps with sea beach: if they are on, the river and its beaches intrude into the sea: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3424324857

There's a checkbox on the first tab that disables some settings for in-home maps. If that's not enough, simply reset the settings after the home map has been generated

how do i make my map setting not spawn for outposts and other non-colony maps

Options -> Mod Options -> Map Designer. Map Preview also offers a button to Map Designer's settings, on the preview window.

How exactly do you use this mod? Am runni g it with Map Preview and Map Reroll but I dont think Ive ever utilized this mod, is there something like a dropdown menue? Sorry if this is a stupid question but I wont be on my pc for the next few days and am still arranging my modlist.

Ah, I see. I just assumed it was a part of this one

Would this mod and Vehicle Framework have some issues with their ships? Their ships spawning a map would cause an error and not load the map because no water bodies are created

I wasn't aware of that box, it must be added by Geological Landforms. The author of that mod may be able to help

Im assuming that it IS just changing the sliders. Its just that you cant change those sliders yourself unless you tick the box that overrides your landform first.

this mod doesnt work on the steam deck, it wont lets me choose a starting place

Turkwise: That's weird because the randomize button literally just moved the sliders around. It's not a different setting.

InsideOutFace: It does, about 1/4 of the time

The river tab only enables by overwriting the river landform though, so you cant use it with like a river island for instance.

Why does "ensure exit" never place the exit to the east?

You should be able to change river size in the Rivers tab, including on maps from Geological Landforms

I noticed that the randomize feature is able to change the size of rivers from Geological Landforms without deleting the landform itself. Can this be an official feature?

Not at this time, just width

dum question about the river setting is anyways to change the depth of the river?

Not during world creation without Map Preview. But you can adjust settings from the mod options from the home screen, prior to world generation.

Is there a "hotkey" to open up the design menu during world creation/map selection? I'm trying to open the design menu without using Map Preview.

There are some issues with 1.5 Map Designer reading stone types from some older configs. Thanks for the reminder!

Only just now realized 3 hours into a run that my config didn't save the stone types I had selected to my preset that I had made a while back, is that meant to happen?

I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't be!

is that compatible with Total Control? (dev mode or smth)

Thanks!

Only mountains and naturally spawning ground stone. Ruinrd walls and floors are not affected.

Does the stone selection only affect the mountains? Or does it also affect the bricks in the ruins?

tyty

The amount of ore would be the same as on a flat map, iirc. You can adjust that in the Things tab.

does anyone know if i force a flat map to have a giant mountain will it have the same amount of ore as a mountain or am i gonna get mostly rock and the amount of ore in a flat terrain?

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me get a map time I've been trying for, its simply a donut mountain with that has a donut valley around it and then mountain to the edges of the map, basically valley, mountain, valley, mountain to edge of the map

Yes, it's compatible

is this compatable with geological landforms?

Yes, I still don't have a fix done or published, but new saved configs should work. Issue is mostly due to trying to apply some obsolete settings that I removed.

And thanks for the reminder! I really need to finish this up.

Thank you this mod help me solve crash on generate new map on large hill and mountain by just flat them.
many thank.

this mod + map prewiev is great for choosing the map we want

I think I've found the issue, and am working on fixing it.

For now, older saved configs will often fail, but new saved configs will work. If you recreate and resave your configs, you should be able to load the new ones without issue.

Can you hop on my discord? Link in the description above. It's better for extended chatting
