Hi Daistallia,

I am enjoying seeing your world develop. It is nice that a few of us are working on similar projects! The tectonics look good the only one I would comment on is that thin peninsula strip which is rifting. It doesn't seem to me that it could be a very active rift as you have the whole weight of an oceanic plate subducting into it. If you look at the great African rift as an example, it is being pulled towards the direction the ocean is heading in. Of course, this might just be an anomaly or now unactive/failed rift. Geologic provinces are fascinating but not a level of detail I have thought about using...very cool!

I like this world but there is something odd about tectonics - you have plate that is entirely surrounded by transform boundaries. It... seems unlikely. I guess it is not a big deal as it will not be very visible but there is still no way to justify it - I don't see a way plate like this can be created (correct me if I am wrong). I will suggest connecting two of the rifts touching this plate and changing the rest of transform faults into subduction zones maybe? Something in this fashion:
Something like that.jpg
Maybe try to experiment with that... Or just ignore this suggestion completly - it is your world after all

RE the strip, hence the question on the plausability earlier.

Thanks! Exactly the sort of feedback I was hopping for - catching errors. That being said, the idea was the plate is spinng/rotating relative to the rest.

Being on break, and not terribly inspired by the current challenges, back to work on this. It's been on the back burner a while... (And yes, some big changes.)
