    I'm pretty sure we did... didn't it reset the town along with the biome?
    I remember people saying they were going to a year back when emeralds came out and they weren't in mainworld.

    I thought this biome changer would only change specific aspects. Such as grass, water freezing, and tree leaf color. Not regenerate the underground with emeralds...

    no lag. one thing that should be made clear in the app though is that when the change is made if you are in the rg you wont see the change until you that chunk is reloaded. ex: do /spawn and then go back to that rg :)

    I think you misunderstand...changing the biome doesn't change the area. Ocean would still be ocean.

    Ah yes, seemed to have let that slip my mind. When I thought of snow biomes ocean biomes kinda shoved their way in next to it. I'll edit it.

    I don't get confused.

    The rarity of this situation which just happened is Fifty-Seven Billion, Three Hundred and Twenty-Two Million, Six Hundred and Ninety Four Thousand, and Three to One

    I love this idea.
    This could potentially increase the numbers of people not wanting mayor to get mayor. Most people either want a jungle or forest biome because the grass and leaves looks nice which then makes the town looks nice. I personally don't like having plains, swamp, etc. because the grass and leaves are pretty ugly. This would make it easier to find a town spot, increasing the incentive to buy one. This would take money out of the economy and make ECC a more beautiful server.
    More towns = more build and some of these builds could turn into some of the most amazing structures out there. This could attract new members, which is what we all want. It could help grow our community and increase the chance for the server to get donations, money = server :D
    Overall, I believe this should definitely be added. There are a lot more reasons, but I feel the two I stated were the biggest. No more worrying about having your town over a gross swampland! I really hope this gets implemented because I know I would be one of the first members to do so :3

    This would be great, it's a pain to build a farm in an ice biome :p

    I'm confused. If you don't like the grass, leaf color, etc.. then why did you pick your town to be there? you would think if the ice freezing or desert color of grass was an issue, you would find a more suitable place to make the town.

    Maybe I'm just missing something. Maybe everyone is just hoping to snag a mushroom biome? :D

    Well people, like me, rushed to get their towns to.. well just be mayor and sell plots for money. Now, these people want to turn their towns into nice towns, and being in a desert or swamp kind of makes it hard to do so. It can also make ocean towns more desirable, if the person doesn't like the grass, they can always get the biome change app.

    I totally agree with this. I was a noob resident and put my mayor town in a desert biome (it's called oakvale) and the trees and grass look horrific. I would totally ask for this.

    So we could also apply for //regen apps if we were the original town owner?
