What it is
Biome is decided by distance inland first and by height only as a modifier, so the world reads as bands rather than blobs: a ridge inside the forest still reads as highland, without height alone being allowed to overrule where you are.
Measured on a lattice 40 m apart across the whole of the world's bounds, The Dunes takes 3.1% of 13,000 samples. Its ground runs from 8.2 m to 20.4 m relative to sea level, and 0.0% of it lies below the waterline.
It reaches from x 570 to x 690 and from z -1990 to z 1970. The map paints its ground #c4b189 and fogs its distance #9aa295 — the two colours that make one band readable from inside another.
