Old world New biomes
I know this has probably been answerred before but when the mistlands are there. If I want to play on the same world... What is the rule for the biome on the map to be unexplored? Like I set foot in the mistlands cause I got a discoverred New biome messages and can see a big empty space, but did not walked all the way though.
Where will things spawn and where not when the update comes? Will that while part stay empty? Or just a certain radius on the map?

There is only theories that it may work similar to previous updates like tar pits and ice caves but since it's a whole biome update the answer is they don't know and we'll just have to wait and see

IIRC, the devs updated their answer since they have done way more testing on old worlds in the meantime.
Here's the info from the pinned FAQ post:
"Will new content be added to my world I currently are playing on?
New content such as tar pits, mountain caves and Mistlands in the future will not appear in areas that have been already generated. Areas are generated 300-500 meters from a player's location. "Exploremap" and "resetmap" has no effect."

The Upgrade World mod solves all such problems and will likely include simple presets tuned for Mistlands.

Worst case scenario, the update would only work on areas where you have not been closer than 500 meters in-game. Thus, if you wish to explore the Mistlands later on when the content arrives, try to leave them be for now and give them a wide berth.
And if they manage to do as Mharr says, hooray! Still, nothing wrong in making sure to leave some of them unexplored for now.
