Bigger Worlds

Adds three larger world size options to the new game screen: Huge, Massive and Colossal. The four vanilla sizes are unchanged and still available. SIZES Big (vanilla max): 129 x 129, 16,641 tiles Huge: 257 x 257, 66,049 tiles, about 4x Big Massive: 513 x 513, 263,169 tiles, about 16x Big Colossal: 1025 x 1025, 1,050,625 tiles, about 63x Big LOAD ORDER MATTERS This mod must load after Core 2. Core 2 defines the same size list, and whichever mod loads last wins. If the new sizes do not appear on the new game screen, move Bigger Worlds below Core 2 in the mod list and restart the game. GENERATION TIME Larger worlds take longer to generate and age before you start playing: Massive: about 11 minutes Colossal: about 20 minutes KNOWN LIMITATION The base game builds its heightmap with midpoint displacement, which leaves a diagonal grid pattern in the biome layout and unnaturally straight coastlines. This is present in vanilla and gets stronger as world size increases. It is noticeable at Massive and pronounced at Colossal. It comes from the base generator and cannot be changed from a mod.
