Increased Height

This is just a question but when increased height is enabled, do I have to change the other wold height configs to get mountains to generate up to y640 or do they do such naturally?

commented

Mountains can rarely go above y320 without other config changes, but if you want to see it more often you'll need to fiddle around with the terrain_scale config option. I've found 1.8 to be a good value here.

commented

Ok cool, thank you, and I assume I should bump the horizontal mountain scale up the same amount as well right?

commented

Or does the horizontal scaling more so act like a percentage? Like would the .25 scale for the horizontal be a set slope angle for mountains?

commented
  • terrain_scale is a flat multiplier of terrain height. Set it to 2, terrain height relative to sea level doubles.
  • horizontal_mountain_scaling scales mountains horizontally. Halving it will make mountains 2x as wide, 2x more gradual slopes and 2x as far away from each other.

How do i access the config file? Ive done it before but cant figure it out again

commented

The config file is in your minecraft instance's config folder, look for tectonic.json
