You can start with this, learning about procedural noise algorithms such as Fractal Noise (basically compounding perlin noise): https://devforum.roblox.com/t/creating-procedural-mountains-a-fractal-noise-tutorial/1494362
^ math.noise uses perlin noise btw

If you want to create a random-number-generator with a local seed and be able to support large numbers & decimals, use Random.new()

Creating Procedural Mountains: A Fractal Noise Tutorial

Creating Procedural Mountains This tutorial will cover generating procedural terrain using various types of noise as heightmaps. We will blend noise together to create convincing "Minecraft" style terrain. I will give you code snippets, diagrams and explanations so that hopefully you can recreate this yourself, and explore other types of terrain...

Also learn Greedy-Meshing if you plan on making it voxel-based (3d pixels)

Consume everything - how greedy meshing works

Hey! I initially made this as a response to a DM I got asking how my greedy mesher algorithm for Blox works. Greedy meshing is a really useful concept when working with voxels, especially in Roblox where large numbers of parts can cause a lot of lag. The idea is to combine adjacent blocks with each other, to reduce the part count while visually...
