    Procedural generation and isometric view are really two very separate things. You should be able to just look up tutorials on how to achieve an isometric view (look for orthographic camera) and separately look up generic proc gen tutorials for 3d (assuming you want 3d) terrain.

    No, its not 3D but 2D based on tiles.

    I would just look up tutorials on procedural generation on a grid. The isometric aspect is just achieved based on what your individual sprites will look like

    This is long but it’s a good start that will work if you’ve set yourself up in iso view and have an iso tilemap. Granted, his examples use 2 tiles but I think you should be able to expand upon it.
