World Paint Trouble
« on: May 19, 2009, 03:21:45 pm »

No matter what I do or how many biomes I create, I can't get a dwarven civilization to gen in the worlds I paint.  I try to include many different mountain biomes at varied levels of elevation, rainfall, etc. while keeping the savagery low enough for dwarves.

In fact, it's not only dwarves that give me trouble--no civilizations seem to want to live in the worlds I create.  I did get an elven civilization once, but that's my only success (if you could call elves a success).  I always try to include many different biomes for each race (lots of wooded areas for elves and plains and grasslands for humans--don't know what goblins and kobolds like).

Can anyone who knows their way around the world painter give me a few tips on creating civ-friendly worlds?
