| Does anyone know how I can get coastline contour lines to render in VVPlanet Generator much like the online version of Planet Map Generator has? I can't seem to find the option... |

| Good catch! It seems I had forgotten or never knew about that option. So what is the command-line option to get coast lines? And then I'll make VPPlanetGenerator to have that option. |

| The command-line option is -E followed by an optional number (with no space between). Without this optional number, only coastlines are added. With a number, additional contour lines are added. The number specifies how many colour values are between each contour line. Counting colour values is, admittedly, a rather crude way of determining altitudes, but it was added as a late hack and the easiest way to add contour lines was to look at the array of generated colours. |

| OK, I see the -E option now. I also found the -O option. I found that both options take an integer value, and I can do something silly like "-E10 -O20" so what exactly do the values control? And is there a reason for both options to have a value? |

| I have a new VPPlanetGenerator ready to publish. I'm currently checking out a site as a home for this software and will provide information if this site will work. |
