Minimum Volcanism/Maximum Volcanism
From what I have found out so far I can say Igneous extrusive layer are only found in areas with a volcanism higher than 90. Volcanoes  are only placed on tiles with a volcanism of 100.

Minimum Volcano Number
Places volcanoes on tiles with a volcanism of 100, if there are not enough tiles the world is rejected. 

Does that imply, that if I set max volcanism to 99 and min volcano number to 50 it'll never accept the world?--Dorten 00:42, 4 August 2008 (EDT)

Volcanism seems to impact stone types. High minimum volcanism and you won't get sedimentary or metamorphic layers, just lots of igneous rock.

I don't think magma pipes are exclusive to volcanism-100 tiles; i've had pipes come up through flux, albiet rarely. Calenth

Cookbook

That thread is nice and all, but it seems more for works in progress. We should have a wiki page for the tried-and-true worldgen recipes, ones that have been tested thoroughly and are complete. --Jackard 07:17, 17 August 2008 (EDT)
