## Latitude 1.2.2 — Border & Biome Consistency Update This release focuses on fixing world size clarity, restoring proportional polar warnings, and correcting biome inconsistencies near the poles. ### 🧭 World Size & UI - Clarified size selector to display **diameter-based labels** (e.g. *Regular 20k*). - Added additional world sizes (in diameter): - **Itty Bitty: 7.5k** - **Tiny: 10k** - **Small: 15k** - **Regular: 20k** - **Large: 30k** - **Huge: 40k** - Restored and expanded world size options without breaking existing worlds. ### 🌍 Latitude Accuracy - Zone entry titles (e.g. *Tropics 18°N*) now display the **actual player latitude**, matching the HUD exactly. - Removed discrepancies between zone-center math and player-position math. ### ❄️ Polar & Border Warnings (Major Fix) - Replaced percent-based warning thresholds with **distance-to-border staging**: - **300 blocks**: “Consider turning back” - **150 blocks**: “Lethal conditions ahead” + mild debuffs - **50 blocks**: Lethal cold / full effects - Restored **Stage 2 negative status effects** (e.g. Slowness, Weakness), which were missing in 1.2.1. - Tightened warning timing so effects no longer trigger hundreds of blocks too early. - Applied the same staging logic consistently for **north/south cold zones** and **east/west sandstorm zones**. ### 🌱 Biome Generation Consistency - Fixed mixed biome reads (e.g. *beach*, *warm ocean*) appearing at certain heights near the poles. - Latitude-selected biomes are now applied **consistently across the full vertical biome column**. - Improves: - Snow accumulation reliability - Polar terrain appearance - Village and structure biome alignment ### 🛠 Stability & Compatibility - No world corruption or border resizing for existing saves. - Fully compatible with worlds created in previous Latitude versions. - To accomplish this, more world sizes were added so that existing worlds could still be accommodated. --- _**Existing worlds will be accommodated; e.g., if you had a world size of 'Regular' (10k diameter), it has now been shifted to 'Tiny' so as not to cause issues with chunk generating and polar shifts.**_
