    Suggestion: Add a Biome Change application

    Reason: As a town owner, there are several towns I own that are multi-biome. I'd like to make them all one biome, so the grass is all the same color that I want it to be.

    Any Other Information: This would simply change the asthetics of the town -- not the blocks. It's very simple to do with WE, and as far as I know it won't cause any issues.

    -1 was available befor3. They got rid of it due to issues with changing the biomes. I personally got my towns biomedical changed and not all of it was changed.

    Then you must either:

    1. Have gotten it changed to the same biome
    or
    2. Had no blocks that could have been effected by the change in biome (grass, ice, etc).

    Nah, it was ocean biome. Flat 200x200 grass. It didn't work because most likely shit is corrupted on ecc after such a long time

    This is a known world edit flaw they simply have to type the command 4 times after selecting the area thats it lol

    OR we could use a different plugin to change biomes their are tons.

    Don't see a way to do this rather easily and without any problems. Also, not really necessary...

    I've wanted this for a very long time. However, due to the fact that players keep mentioning possible chunk corruption and because the fourth suggestion has apparently been denied before I am not too optimistic.

    No one said chunk corruption i have never heard of it corrupting chunks. The issue is if you dont type the command a few times after selecting the area and it will not convert all chunks not really a issue as long as you type it a few times.

    Jamie revisited my town and attempted to change the Boone again and he found that the chunks were corrupted. Just doing the command multiple times doesn't fix it.

    Fifth URL, this thread, more than two dozen players in chat after mentioning this idea within the past few years.

    I have done a few stress tests with large scale biome editing before, those worlds now have multiple broken chunks. However, I suspect that it has been caused by some other 'experiments' I conducted in the same worlds. I am not sure why I failed to keep those experiments separated, I am possibly going to retry all of those experiments in the future.

    I just tested it on my personal world using the most updated WE works for me but If its actually breaking/corrupting the chunk not just not changing it to a new biome then its something ecc related would be nice to get a reply from jamie on this:D I would really like to get the swamp out my town lol.

    As this seems to have many negative issues, maybe it would be more
    aesthetically pleasing if you just replace the dirt with color blocks :D

    Try to find a nice alternative for a ridiculously large river in an ice biome*. :p


    * Lava is not appreciated, even though it would be interesting.

    ECCs maps are very old and are bound to have some corruption especially with legacy which is where we had problems
