Dappled Biome Type

I really enjoy the Dappled Forest Biome that they released, however, it seems odd to have only one biome that is autumnal. I think it would be perfect to expand this forest into a biome type much like hills biome type. What I imagine is multiple "dappled" biomes consisting of currently neutral biomes. This would include Oak Forest, Birch Forest, Dark Forest, etc. Each dappled biome would have red brown grass and red/orange/yellow tree-dependent leaves. These biomes would only spawn between neutral/cold biome borders to keep some sort of rarity. Conversely, I think it'd be interesting to have a Popular Forest that is fully green/yellow-green too. Let me know what you think!

    Or what about seasons where the whole world becomes Autumn Themed and after like 30 in game days the season changes but the dappled forest is always Autumn.

    I agree, the visual transition between biomes is now really harsh between dappled and plains, and always was with snowy. If we could change it so the autumnal biomes slowly transitioned between the snowy and the warm that would be lovely! This would make a much more immersive gaming experience imo, and would remove some of the issue where the biomes just feel way too small to play in at the moment.

    Like the pale oak biome for example just feels unplayable as a builder because you can typically build one small/medium thing in it and then you've run out of room to build anything else. I get that it was always supposed to be spooky, and hard to survive, so I understand why they made it small, but for fully geared up players it's nice to have a challenge to be able to clear the area to be able to build something cool there. The atmosphere is so unique/cool there.

    What if the pale oak generated in the middle of the dappled forest? Or was the transition biome between dark oak and dappled forest?
