Hobo Misanthropus replied to Ruining world generation before new areas: How close is too close? February 26, 2023 @ 1:12:09 pm PST
If the distance is the distance at which Haldor pops, I probably screwed up a little bit of ashlands, lol.
Everyone who has revealed/unlocked the biome text has done that, but whether it matters at all is hard to say... This is just me, but I kinda doubt they are going to change the placeholder landscape as much as they changed it for mistlands.
Might run into some suddenly cut off lava flows maybe.
It's not the Heightmap which matters (Which will update regardless of how close you were) but structures, features and resources which won't generate. So Like Rocks, Dungeons, resource nodes, etc.
What will generate is Mob spawners though, which is why "Corrupted" mistlands make for excellent bunny farming areas. No mist, nowhere to hide.
