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 Open Water takes 40.0% of 13,000 samples. Its ground runs from -330.9 m to 12.5 m relative to sea level, and 96.8% of it lies below the waterline.

It reaches from x 1130 to x 3170 and from z -1990 to z 1970. The map paints its ground #1b4a5c and fogs its distance #123642 — the two colours that make one band readable from inside another.
