Introduction

This mod provides the tools to both improve the standard terrain generation of the game, and override aspects of it with image maps, allowing precise control over height, biomes, location placement, and forest coverage.
These generated worlds can be shared with others (who have this mod installed) by simply copying the usual world files, along with the extra .BetterContinents file.

See maps people have shared here. Check the links above for documentation and installation instructions.

Recommended mods

  • Server Devcommands
    • Edit the configuration to automatically enable flying or other features.
    • Better Continents enables devcommands for debug worlds, so that feature can be disabled from Server Devcommands.
  • Upgrade World
    • This is needed to reset the world when reloading images or changing settings.
    • Better Continents calls the zones_reset command automatically when needed.
    • Other commands can be used for more specific resets.
    • Adds location_register command to make a location to spawn at the specific coordinates.
