Topic category: Feature requests and ideas for MCreator
The one thing that has been a consistent headache for me has been biomes. Please, for the love of god, more biome options and preview tools. I cant even make cave biomes for a custom dimension without doing some multistep workaround and the generation values provide almost no information. It would be nice if i could see a preview of how the biome would generate in a given dimension on a pixel map as I edited the values. But instead we get a percentage that doesn't tell you at all what it would be like. So instead I have to keep opening the game, looking at a messed up biome, closing the game, editing the generation, and repeat. Over and over again, piece by piece, grain of sand by grain of sand. It is such a slow and tedious process which is shocking considering its one of the first things many modders would want to do and you'd think there would be more intuitive tools regarding this exact feature.
What would be helpful? Like I said before, some kind of preview pixel map showing how the biome would generate in the dimension you select. Second, sliders. Manually editing the numbers over and over again is mind numbing. The arrows only move the number by 0.0001 which is great for precision but horrible for saving time. A slider that I can just click and drag would be so much quicker and generally a good feature for accessibility. In general, I just want to be able to know what I'm changing better or at LEAST having it be quicker to edit. I've wasted more time fiddling with biomes in MCreator than everything else combined and I only have 3 biomes compared to the 70+ items and blocks.
