Basically, you have to think of it as though it's just a totally different seed. There's nothing compatible more or less than if we were to reset the seed today and get border cliffs.

Yeah, I'm really on the fence about it. Maybe if we simply move spawn to a new area and "kill" everyone (have everyone unload their goods at home before we shut down to upgrade), we could force everyone to resettle for a little bit before opening portals back to the old town. That might work out nicely.

Also, if my experiments today are any indication, some of the new biomes like the clay desert and ice kingdom might be super-rare. I haven't found any yet, but I've found plenty of the kind you'd expect (various plains, various forests, rivers, oceans, hills, extreme hills).
