[WIP] Building a world from tectonics onward

[MrBragg]

Definitely not sick of these yet

Thanks, Charerg, that at least makes one of us What comes next is an interesting question. Tbh I never thought I'd make it this far, so having to consider what to do once these maps are done is a bit of an outstanding question.

While I could continue painting individual mountain valleys for the rest of my natural life--mountains are such a pain...--I'm going to post this next update here as some self-encouragement to hopefully move on (temporarily?) to working on some other landmasses.

The climates came out of both ExoPlaSim and the tutorial here--the full climate map is earlier in this thread; this landmass lies between ~15 and 30 S and has a large continent off to the west just out of frame--so that doesn't concern me too much. After all, coastal deserts really aren't that uncommon given that Baja California, Chile, Western Australia, Western Sahara, and Namibia all have them.

I referred to equatorial coasts that lie on ICTZ route.

And current WIP on a much larger landmass. Still tweaking some of the tropical forest regions, but this seemed done enough for a public preview.
