That's how the map generator for the alpine climate works, so it's not a 
bug, but a feature. For tropic climate, the results are similar, but 
with more water. In temperate it is even worse, you'll always get a flat 
map with some lonely mountains placed on some not very random places.

Is there a way to get a map with a smoother transition from flat to 
mountainous, except from creating a map in the editor? The approach in 
the arctic climate is quite ok for me, but a smoother change between the 
two parts would be nice. And it would also be nice to replace the 
temperate lonely mountains by the massive mountainous areas of the 
arctic climate if mountainous terrain is selected. Is that possible to 
do in some way?

Greets,
Uwe
