Features

Extreme Configurability

Terra allows every possible facet of world generation we can practically implement to be controlled via configuration.
This means you can modify the way everything generates in a world, without needing to touch any Java code.

Terra's configuration system offers greater control over many facets of world generation compared to vanilla data packs,
you don't have to rely on work-arounds and limited functionality.

Aspects such as terrain shaping, biome distribution, decoration, generation stages, and so on are implemented
at the config level. Terra is not limited to overworld-like generation, meaning it can be used for any kind of dimension. You
could use it to generate the nether, the end, or even non-vanilla worlds of floating islands, abstract shapes, or any mish-mash
combination of the former.

Multiple World Generators & Config Packs

Each world generator within Terra is defined by a collection of config files, called a 'config pack'. These config packs
can easily be installed, opened up, modified for personal use, and or shared with the community!
Multiple config packs can be installed, and used for any number of worlds you wish. (Config packs work similarly to Minecraft
resource packs.)

• If you don't like a particular aspect of a Terra world - such as a specific biome generating, or how common ores are - you can roll your own of a config pack and tweak these things to better meet your vision.
• If you need a particular generated world for an event, you can make a config pack for it. For example a simple snowy world with only candy canes and pine trees for a christmas themed event, or a spooky endless forest filled with twisted trees and dark skies for a halloween event.
• If you want a tailor-made world built to your exact specification, you can create it by making your own config pack from scratch.
• If you are an artist and like making pretty worlds, you could use Terra as your medium.
• If you want to learn how procedural voxel world generation works, you could use config development as a learning tool.
