    The tectonics look marvellous! I envy you.
    (I've downloaded the file and checked the poles - they're good too.)

    Good point about the volcanic mountains. They should probably be more evident at the rift zone. Mid-oceanic volcanic island arcs might also be a good addition.

    I was thinking my world was currently at a geologically calm period, but the supercontinental plate is definitely due for a break-up soon.

    Thank you! I'm taking care to keep the polar areas in line as I'm making changes.
