Would love to see a config to allow a large increase in Streams spawning. Love these streams and how much better they make the world look ! So I've always wanted more of them, but it's been an ok amount so didn't bother to suggest this before. However, I want to use OTG as the terrain generator now, and for some reason the amount of streams spawning is vanishingly small. Would be great to have more control over this.

Thanks for your suggestion. One reason Streams are so few right now is that they are each generated in a separate 8x8 pre-generated chunks zone and look for river or ocean outlets at the edges of said zones. If they were to look in the whole zone it would a) take longer to scan and b) reduce the average length of streams as there would be a shorter distance between the zone borders and the outlet. So it's all a matter of trade-offs. Streams version 1.0 will try to be smarter about this and offer configurable zone sizes.

What if you included low points in the terrain as outlets as well as rivers or oceans ? So canyons and such would have waterfalls dropping into them, and because you would have more possible outlets available, there would be more streams.

If you're only looking at the edges of the zone and not the interior of it, could you make it so that the distance is setable in the config ? So someone could say look 12 chunks out instead of 8 and go for longer but fewer stream systems or look 4 chunks out and get more but smaller systems. Or perhaps each stream could have this set as a random number, and you would get more variety in streams.

I also really liked the idea in another suggestion of generating lakes as an endpoint. Would it perhaps be possible to say "I didn't find a river or ocean for the stream system" but "that's already happened the last 9 times I tried to place a Stream", so this time "I'm going to create a lake there and then attach this stream system to that lake". And that number 9 out of 10 tries could then be setable so that it would be possible to increase/decrease lake+stream systems

I would really like this feature as well... I find myself wanting ALL rivers to be streams haha.
