Hi!

Since this mod adds a new type which only alters the "shape" of the world (not adding any biomes or content) i think it would be a little easier to implement compared to other similar mods (BoP for example).

I could just use instead amidst for forge, but that version only shows the world currently loaded (that is, the world needs to be created to be previewed), while i use amidst precisely to preview worlds before creating them in minecraft.

I think it would also be a good Idea to treat forge versions as normal versions (eg forge 1.7.10 showing up as 1.7.10) if that's possible... there should be an easy way to write plug-ins (eg an API) for mods (or just updates) that change/add world gen rules (tho I don't know if that's possible) so that they can make plug-ins... I am not very fluent in java, but maybe that would be possible... the makers should team up with forge and possibly make a "FML" API for accounts that use forge versions... forge could make it so that it automatically makes a pulgin file for your mod. If not that'll just add a little more programing into mods tho I think that will be a great feature...
