Changes world gen to increase tree size and reduce shrub count.

Forest World

Description

I wanted to play in a world that felt more like an old growth forest, a large canopy high above your head with a field of view that wasn't covered by shrubs and leaves. I still want to tweak it a bit more, like increase the number of aged logs to make it feel more like "old growth" and create rare super trees. 

 

This mod is pretty basic as it only tweaks the sizes of trees, adding a 1.4x-1.8x multiplier to them. However, English Oaks and Redwoods I've altered a bit more, increasing their trunk size to a 2x2 and a 3x3 respectively and changing how they branch.

It also reduces shrub count and increase where grains can spawn. As I was making and testing this mod I realized I was never finding any flax, which is a game breaker as it is a necessary resource. After searching the files and asking for help on discord, I saw that flax doesn't spawn if the forestization (which I am still unsure of how that is caclualted) is above 50%. Almost everywhere is above 50% in a forest world. 

 

All the screenshots are with Terra Prety and River Gen mods and with the game setting Highly Forested (+50%).
