When hmmmm took over mapgen 3 years ago he luckily didn't bother with offsets to keep thing simpler, they are a headache for sure.
Oh. I see what you mean. An offset that's not represented in the noise parameters. Yeah, it'd be nice if noise were more...composable, and could be parameterized more generically. Then USERS of the noise wouldn't have to know or care. But that ship sailed a long time ago....
