In advanced worldgen, what parameters should I change to generate a shallow world?

eliminate caverns or minimize the layers between each cavern and survace/cavern. Forgot the name for each setting.

I set the caverns to 1 layer, but I was still getting ninety or a hundred z-levels. I want 40 - 50

embark closer to sea levels

The game actually tracks the height of the land and sets the bottom of your embark at the lowest point for the whole world.

I had an embark option for a conifer forrest high up between mountain passes. I imagine it would have been a hundred or so down there. Embark next to an edge sea and it'll most likely be much shallower.
