Build a world starting with tectonic plates—Oreios

A good first draft, but IMHO we shouldn't stick too much to the plate borders, as we can see that this doesn't happen too often with earth's plates.
Your's looks way nicer.
Don't worry. It just comes with experience, I'm sure you'll be making better things when you have been in the forums as long as I have.

Yeah. I've only been here for a couple days. Also, I think instead of separating 1 and 3 with an ocean, we should use a large inland sea.
My two cents for what it's worth.
Where 4 and 5 meet should be a subduction zone with island arcs.
Subductions zones will also be where 6 and 10 meet, possibly along the northern edge of 14 as well.
There will be a mid-ocean ridge between 10 and 4, maybe 2 and 14 too.
There will probably be a rift valley between 3 and 1 since theyre moving sort of away from one another.
Another thing helpful would be to determine which type of boundary each plate boundary is (convergent/divergent/transform).

Alright! That's very useful in and of itself. I will be making some maps (and I hope others can do so too) which will need to use layers for the final adjustments.
Alright, sweet!
I can add some islands or whatever, just need to know where and how many / how concentrated
