World end handling

Handling of game world when last character dies. Delete means when the character dies the world is gone too. Keep means the character's changes to the world persist; this breaks some missions and allows for the next character to find the corpse of the first. Reset means the world is regenerated with the existing world rules.

Size of cities

A number determining how large cities are. 0 disables cities, roads and any scenario requiring a city start.

City spacing
A number determining how far apart cities are. Warning, small numbers lead to very slow mapgen.
Spawn rate scaling factor
x
Carrion spawn rate scaling factor
x
Item spawn scaling factor

Higher values means more loot.

NPC spawn rate scaling factor

Higher values mean more (random? not static, right?) NPCs.

Monster evolution scaling factor

A higher number means slower evolution.

Monster speed

Spawn delay
Season length
