That will save Mevans a lot of time coding many different ocean biomes. Instead, he can code for one variant type, like he did for the river 'biome'. He could also code in separate structures and shipwrecks and make them generate in the ocean biome variant dependent on climatic, geographic or other parameters. For starters, it could lead to Númenorean ruins not generating in the Sea of Rhûn. Or Elven ruins generating in the Eastern Sea.

Gen. Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 11:37, March 22, 2017 (UTC) Are there elven ruins spawning in the eastern sea? Indeed, one of the reasons for this suggestion is underwater elven ruins can spawn in any 'ocean biome' at leaset to my knowledge.
