Hola, peeps. Returning to worlbuilding after a loooong time and I'm running in to all. kinds. of. problems.

I've read and reread the climate cookbook, trawled the posts here and elsewhere, watched the videos, stared at this for waaaaaaaay too long, and I just. don't. get it. Somewhere between "make a water circle. warm goes one way, cold goes the other" and trying to scribble that out on my map, my brain blows a fuse. Are my gyres too squiggly? How far do they go without a continent to smack into? The whorls look so tiny in the live feed and I'm talking myself into decision paralysis.

pls send help.
