The Plains Plateau is basically a Plains biome at a higher elevation. The biome is bordered by the Rocky Edge biome:

Rocky Edge

The Rocky Edge biome transitions the height between the Plains Plateau and other biomes. Its height is substantially lower and is surfaced with Stone and boulders.

Wooded Plateau

The Wooded Plateau is a forest-like version of the Plains Plateau. The height is consistent with it, as is the grass color (unlike a Forest).

Generation

The Plains Plateau generates rarely in dry climates, half as often as Plains in cool climates, and a little less than half as often as Plains in temperate climates. It generates in 3 parts:

  • Plains Plateau (traverse:plains_plateau): the high plateau base
  • Rocky Edge (traverse:rocky_edge): edges the Plains Plateau to transition to lower grounds easier, and also provides visual contrast in color and form.
  • Wooded Plateau (traverse:wooded_plateau): a variant of the Plains Plateau with forest features

Climate

The Plains Plateau biome is similar in climate to a Plains biome.
