Title: Map generation
Post by: Praetorian on April 28, 2017, 05:51:03 PM
Has something been changed with map generation in the most recent versions of the game? I only ask because I've been looking to get a nice mountain base going, but it's impossible to find a map generated with mountain covering the entirety of one edge - they keep getting broken up with pathways and passages. Anyone got any advice? Changing map size and biome doesn't seem to matter.

You need to settle in a tile with "mountains" in it, then a mountain will always appear.

Must say I'm little humbled to get the game creator responding to my map whine :) And a dishy one at that!

But, slightly embarrassing, I was aware I needed to settle in a mountain tile, had many times before, it just transpires in my mod-loading frenzy I had accidentally loaded a mod which slightly altered map generation  :-[

Well, live and learn!

At least you weren't complaining to the Dev about your mods not working properly. ;)

Or reporting broken/outdated mods to the forum moderators (it happens). ;)
