Rivers is a Vintage Story mod by sneezerstein. Rivers adds broad, flowing waterways to world generation, with lakes forming where river routes begin or end.
Why this mod is worth installing
Choose this mod if you want world maps shaped by long waterways rather than only static lakes and oceans. It is especially useful for players who enjoy building bridges, river settlements, and transport routes.
What Rivers adds
Rivers are generated as large-scale flowing bodies of water. A channel can begin inland and continue toward an ocean, giving the terrain a more connected drainage pattern.
Lakes can appear at the ends of river routes, creating natural starting points and broader water basins. Oceans must be enabled for the river system to generate properly, and expansive land coverage generally gives it more room to form.
The mod also exposes river flow and distance data for other systems. This allows client-side rendering and physics features to react to current direction, while server-side logic can determine how close a position is to a riverbank.
