Noise layer frequency control

Post by Sirenfal »

Earendel's Alien Biomes mod is really cool, but the biomes end up very small and clustered together. There used to be a terrain control option (terrain segmentation) that would help, but it has been removed.

See Earendel's help request- viewtopic.php?f=25&t=38906. I don't think the mod API has any solution for this. Can something new be added, or failing that, terrain segmentation be added back?

Thanks.

"terrain segmentation" is just "water frequency" - it still exists it was simply named wrong before.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

In 0.12 "terrain segmentation" meant "biome frequency". But something broke in 0.13, so it was removed instead of trying to fix it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but water frequency only seems to affect the elevation layer but not the temperature or moisture noise layers?
