MapGen v2.2 — Detailed Content

Overview

MapGen v2.2 is a procedural map generation system for creating tile-based world maps (terrain, biomes, rivers, points of interest, and overlays) aimed at games, simulations, and tabletop tools. It produces deterministic, seed-driven outputs with configurable steps for noise, erosion, biome assignment, and feature placement.
