I was genning worlds the other day, when I came across this beauty of a map!
It has a mountain of over 50 z-levels that divides the map in half, trees, a brook, lots of good minerals, unfortunately no lava, and my favorite part of all... a large, perfect right angle, right at the bottom of a cliff near the top left. I have always ran out of z-levels and hate designing entrances with all the extra bits at the bottom of a cliff or hill, and this is just what I wanted.

Any feedback on the map?

[zchris13]

Oh snap a right angle.

▼That's what I'm saying!! OH SNAP.

[Sysice]

Well, I never find them.

Edit: So, you were actually serious when you said oh snap? I've never seen someone use it when they weren't being sarcastic...

[darkflagrance]

I've heard this happens when biomes change in the middle of a mountain. The right angle should therefore trace the boundary of one of the squares in your embark.

[Sysice]

Hm, really? I've never heard of that before. Well, thanks for the explanation.

[Danarca]

In that case shouldnt there be tons of these freakshows in every genned world?

[Sysice]

Most people usually do not search every square of every world to find weird things.

[Jude]

What the shit? That's the weirdest worldgen thing I've ever seen.
