Subbiomes for grasslands and hills biomes, which gives their parent biomes a cool unique look.

could you make the platue have a very thin transition subiome so that its not a sheer cliff but a cliff thats rounded off at the bottom

Tried it, it causes problems:

  • using subbiomes, you either get no transition at all or a big lump of the transistion biome in an undesirable spot. (so it's not feasible for it to be thin)
  • you also lose out on variable biome sizes doing it this way
  • transitionBiomes are exactly what I would need here, but they don't seem to work on subbiomes (afaik)

Personally I don't mind the sheer cliffs, I think they look neat, but I know they can look silly sometimes. Ideally yeah, I would have it slope up towards the sheer cliff.

ah could you see how mountains do it
i think they solve that kinda of issue with weird sections though i may be wrong

The mountains work because they're at a much larger scale, and it doesn't matter for them if they are a bit lumpy.

I had to remove the stacked plateaus because I couldn't get the interpolation to work how I wanted. The stacked plateaus always had hard edges, while the base plateau now has smoother edges. Which looked weird.

If you give the inner plateau a smooth interpolation then you should get the same transition as between the outer plateau and the surrounding terrain.

Oh, yeah, that works.
