General[edit]
The Biome Section consists of the Biomes list and the Main terrain setup.
Biomes list[edit]
The Biomes list (in Alpha 8 and later) only has one entry named BiomeClusterData. The fact that this is still a list selector is due to legacy reasons, as Alpha 7 and before had multiple entries for biomes.
Terain Setup[edit]
Below the biomes list you will find the playfields main terrain setup. Here you can choose between terrain generation methods.
Terrain types[edit]
- Dll terrain (Generated based on a dll file containing algorithms)
- Xml terrain (Generated based on a Xml file containing algorithms, which can be set up by everyone using Empyrion's own Terrain Generator)
- Raw file (Terrain is created using a fixed grayscale heightmap to define high and low areas in the playfield with bright and dark shades of gray)
- Random Terrain - Alpha 8 (Terrain is generated based on some algorithm mixed with raw image stamps placed into the generated terrain) In Alpha 8 this is the recommended terrain, as it is accurate and saves memory)
