This is going to be rather rambly, sorry about that
As of when I am posting this, October 8th, it's the two year anniversary of Tectonic's release. Two years, five hundred hours of work and a full rewrite later, it's sitting at well over six and a half million downloads.

I have a strange relationship with this project.

On one hand, on a design standpoint I thoroughly dislike it. Mountain ranges are inconsistently generated and a very high render distance and/or Distant Horizons is needed to fully appreciate them. Underground rivers, while cool, have some very cursed generation and are overall pretty uninspired. Terrain shaping outside of mountain ranges is incredibly barebones and boring. The staircasing/"lerp" terrain is actually rather good for Minecraft and the removal of it is off-putting. The land-ocean distribution is just embarrassing.

On the other hand, I can't bring myself to actually hate it. It's my brainchild, the cultivation of all my terrain generation experience up to and beyond its release. I've learned a lot about modding from creating and maintaining it. It's also very likely going to be my legacy; there's clearly a lot of people who like it, I see people talking about it frequently in discord and on youtube. There's what, six AHS videos that mention it now?

I'll end off with this: thank you. Thanks to Misode, Jacobsjo and Starmute, whose knowledge and tools brought me to being able to understand worldgen on the level I do now. Thanks to the acquaintances in the Stardust Labs discord who watched as Tectonic was brought into existence and helped spread the word in the early days. Thanks to my friends throughout the last two years who helped keep me sane while trying to maintain this growing behemoth of a project. Thanks to the content creators who extended the reach of this mod further than I could through word of mouth on Discord. Thanks to whoever's downloaded Tectonic, created worlds with it, gotten cool screenshots with it.‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌

Tectonic isn't done quite yet. I have some plans for future content and even some early prototypes, but until I know it'll make it to a release I'll keep the details to myself. Until then, I shall return to my work on Tectonic and other projects.

Happy Friday, PMC!

We've revamped our Site Rules with new sections focused on Social Interactions and Moderation— to help make the platform more welcoming and transparent for everyone.


✅ What’s new?

• Our content rules remain the same, but the Social section is all about outlining what’s already been happening naturally but wasn't documented! This is to help newcomers understand how to engage positively and give everyone a clearer reference point. Ideally, if it helps prevent even small misunderstandings or frustrations, it's a win.
  
• The Moderation section provides some insight into our responsibilities and actions. It's one small step towards offering transparency so you know how we keep the community fun, safe, and respectful. We're working on a larger update to this end.
  

We’re also compiling FAQs to make your PMC experience even smoother for both new members and exploring features of our platform! You can help us out by posting in this forum. Just prepend your thread title with “FAQ:” and—bonus points!—if you can provide the answers in your thread. Every contribution helps the community grow stronger and helps us understand what needs to be answered!

Let’s keep building an awesome community together.

i could do worldgen
or i can be sane
it's a hard decision as the two are mutually exclusive
