FAQ

This warning appears when you’re either too close to existing content or beyond the limits for expansion. It helps you identify where new content can be generated.

How do I know where I can expand?

Look for areas where your world meets unexplored or blurry spaces. These boundary zones are where expansion is possible.

Will new areas match my existing world’s style?

Yes, the expansion system analyzes your existing world’s visual style, architecture, and aesthetic to generate new areas that naturally fit and connect with your current environment.
