So i just started playing FTB again after a few months and tried to make some stable mystcraft ages (again...), but it won't work.. Everytime i make a new Age there is always some sort of instability or its eternal night/ the biomes are completely wrong. I looked up a bunch of "how to's" for mystcraft ages but it never worked.. everytime there was instability or its eternal night..
I just want to have a simple single savanna biom which is flat. Can anyone help me out? :)

Gives you every symbol you need to put in there for example:
savanna biome / flat / normal lighting / dungeons / caves / strongholds / villages / dark moon / dark stars / zenith / zero length / normal sun / no weather / clear modifiers(if you have it, I don't and I still got a stable age)

Note that I put a bunch of stuff in there(villages, strongholds, saves, dungeons) because otherwise it tends to add some stuff you don't want and may cause instability.
I also tend to specify a few things like white / cloud color / blue / sky color, not sure if it helps but it can't hurt.
Note that you're not guaranteed to get a stable age but you'll most likely get one(if you don't just retry with the same symbols).

Don't forget the Single Biome page. :)

Depending on the Mystcraft version you also might want to specify the materials for your world. Especially in 1.5.2 it would generate some goofy stuff otherwise.

I was under the impression in 0.10.5 (the version in Unleasehed) if you wrote a book that didn't imply greed (no dense ores or too many villages) or incorrect grammar (biomes after the controller) all you would *need* to do is put Savanna Biome/Single Biome/ Stone Block / Water Block/ Flat as a base case.

In general, moving forward, a world with less details specified is more likely to be stable

Lol don't know how I forgot single biome yes >.>.
And yes stone block/water block is a good idea, I forgot it because I don't actually have those symbols(it hasn't generated anything weird so far though) :p.
