Increased Height

[mike23564]

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?

[Apollounknowndev]

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.

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

[mike23564]

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?

[Apollounknowndev]

• 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.

Ah I see, ok, thanks a lot
