Bukkit

Sorry for the delay in getting the latest bug fixes out. Sometimes pulling on a string ends up unraveling things more than intended. I am currently testing v1.10. As soon as I feel "good" about it, I will post it. I hope that it will happen by tomorrow morning.

Heads up: this version will simplify the number of combinations of decay and world modes like Nether and End. This was required due to the chaos that all of the combinations were causing. As it currently sits the options are creating over 8 BILLION permutations, and I can't test them all... so please bare with me as I track down reported issues and simplify where I can. :-)

@SchemingDuck

You can turn off all the spawners via options. See for more info

@predawnia

Thanks for the info. I still haven't duplicated the issue but I will continue to try.

Still no word on when 1.08 will happen but I can tell you I have removed includePavedRoads and added includeWoolRoads. I made cross walks show up on non-wool roads (clay lines on stone) and made wool roads something you have to opt into. That should solve your "roads catching on fire" problem. I might add something to tekkit generation to make the roads look better but that is not something I will do for 1.08.

@predawnia

Before answering "just turn off paved roads and you are set", I was verifying the non-paved road code worked, I noticed that street signs don't generate unless paved roads are on. Sigh... permutations will be the death of me yet. so I fixed that this morning.

As for allowing the materials to be settable, it is a goal of mine but now with 1.3 coming out that will likely have to wait until all of that settles down.

As for the nether crust generation, what version are you using? I am sure it is the latest but I have to ask just in case it isn't. There was a problem with an earlier release that didn't generate sewers correctly. Thanks for the config.yml. Could you also send me your world seed via PM and I will take a look at the problem tonight. If I find something I will roll it into 1.08 (which will contain the street sign fix). Which may or may not happen tonight.

Short answer: No, not yet

Long answer: Once Minecraft 1.3 actually exists and Bukkit for 1.3 is released in some form (http://dl.bukkit.org/downloads/craftbukkit/), I can start verifying that CityWorld works for 1.3. Until then: No, not yet

I am not trying to be snarky, I am trying to very clear. Alas, sometimes it is very hard to tell the difference between the two.

Finally got a chance to see your video... One "voice" said that he wouldn't build farms "that way". To improve verity.. I am always looking for other/better ways to do things. If he wants, tell him to contact me via dev.bukkit PM.

Nice video by the way, I loved the banter :-)

Farms will appear more likely at the edges of the cities, near seas and mountains. The logic "sorta" goes like this: I count up the number of "natural" relatively flat chunks are in a 10x10 chunk area and...

if (naturalPlats == 0)
    // place high-rise buildings
else if (naturalPlats < 15)
    // place mid-rises and under construction high-rises
else if (naturalPlats < 25)
    // place mostly mid-rise buildings
else if (naturalPlats < 37)
    // place taller large (width wise) buildings
else if (naturalPlats < 50)
    // place short large buildings
else if (naturalPlats < 65)
    // place shorter smaller buildings
else if (naturalPlats < 80)
    // place neighborhood
else if (naturalPlats < 90 && generator.settings.includeFarms)
    // place farm
else if (naturalPlats < 100)
    // place isolated houses
else
    // it is all natural here

@Ninjahan

I don't understand... what do you need an explanation for?
