This has been suggested before, but possibly not on it's own:

Allow players to deactivate the north/south temperature gradient in worldgen.

Possible additions:
- Allow players to specify northern or southern hemisphere.

- Allow players to make a whole pole-to-equator-to-pole gradient, rather than simple pole-to-equator.

- Other exotic gradients (Cold Equator; Central Pole, etc.)

- Add temperature to set of "paintable" quantites in worldgen editor.

This is essential to creating specific landmasses, real or fictional.

I wholeheartedly agree.
I want tropica la paradise!

[AngleWyrm]

Same here, I want my whole map to be 'warm'.

Be careful what you wish for. No temperature gradients means no wind carrying water vapor, which means no rain, which means no fresh surface water unless you find a river fed by a mountain spring.

Perhaps the small and pocket worlds could be treated as single regions of a larger planet in such cases?

Naw, there's prevailing winds that assume some evaporation over the oceans, and a noise nap. It doesn't simulate circulation. Even if every tile is the same temp, rainfall would be the same in DF.

Tropical worlds would have rain a lot.
If such islands have no mountains.
