Visuals

Visual symbols from Mystcraft affect only the appearance of the world but not any gameplay factors. The category is required for an age description, and can appear many times. If no Visuals are specified, the grammar can and will insert a few on its own.

Most of these are symbols which simply change the color of part of the environment. Each of these has a "Natural" version which takes no modifiers, and a "custom" version which takes a color (ground colors) or gradient (sky colors) as their only modifier. There are also a couple of extra sky effects. Sunset colors (including sunrise, moonset, moonrise) have their own symbol, while Stars and Lightning take their colors from a modifier.

All the color schemes default to the Overworld coloring. Specifying the same color scheme (e.g., Foliage Color) more than once in a book causes their respective color or gradient values to be combined in the usual fashion. This includes the "Natural" versions, which allows mixing the the default colors with chosen colors. Example: "Natural Foliage Color, Red, Foliage Color, Natural Foliage Color" would put a reddish tint on the Overworld coloring.

Ground colors take only a color modifier (except Natural versions). The local biome can also affect the results, especially Swampland biomes. Naturally, if the affected blocks are moved to or from a different age (or biome, for that matter), they will change color as appropriate to their new location.
