Perfect Landing — Smarter World Tile Finder
Fine-tune your RimWorld start with fast, zero-fluff filters in the Terrain tab. Pick your climate, geology, and growing season, then jump between matching tiles in one click.
What it does
- Interactive filters: Temperature (°C), Rainfall, Elevation, Forageability, Growing Period.
- Stone types: Include / Exclude with Any / All / Exact (tri-state per rock).
- One-click nav: Find next tile + Previous tile (per-world history).
- Feasible ranges: sliders clamp to real values so you never dead-end.
- New "ghost bars" to show users the ranges that the sliders clamp to (with a later update allowing the user to turn off auto-clamp).
Supported versions
- 1.5 ✅ Working; bugs might still be there.
- 1.6 ⏳ - in development (infrastructure in place, porting in progress)
Compatibility
- Safe to add/remove: UI-only; does not touch maps, pawns, incidents, or defs.
- Requires: Harmony.
- Biomes & calendars: works with modded biomes and altered calendars.
- Other UI mods: adds to the Terrain tab via postfix; total tab replacements may hide this panel.
Performance
- No world-wide heavy math. Growing season is a cached per-tile classification.
- Increases world gen time, but this allows the sliders to practically happen in real-time.
How to use
- Open the world map, select any tile, and click on the Perfect Landing button in the Terrain tab.
- Set your ranges and growing category.
- Click Find next tile to jump to the next match; Previous tile steps back through matches for this worldgen.
- Reset values returns to full world ranges.
