SkylandsPlus+
Description
This plugin will add a replacement for the default skylands world generator, the one in the game was never finished.
Stuff that this generator has that the default skylands doesn't:
- Day-night cycle
- Weather
- Normal biomes
- All mobs
- All ores

Promo Video
How do I use it ?
Don't want to watch the awesome video ? Fine, here are the basic commands.
/mv create skylands normal -g SkylandsPlus
Or a skylands style Nether like this
/mv create skylands nether -g SkylandsPlus
Or a skylands style End like this
/mv create skylands the_end -g SkylandsPlus
Other world management plugins should have similar commands, I use Multiverse on my server which is why I only provide the instructions for that. The documentation for which ever plugin you use should tell you how to do it. You can also add a world by editing the bukkit.yml file, instructions on how to do that can be found on the Bukkit wiki.
Config
prevent-sand-falling: true restrict-mob-spawning: true
prevent-sand-falling - When set to true no sand will fall in skylands worlds.
restrict-mob-spawning - When set to true the number of mobs in a single chunk will be limited to a sane amount in skylands worlds.
Contributing
Contributions to the project are very much welcome, if you have a feature that you want implemented and know a nice way to do it then consider forking the repo and submitting a pull request. These will be accepted as long as the following simple guidelines are followed.
- Do not edit the structure of the pom.xml file, feel free to add a dependency if you need it but the formatting and structure should not be changed.
- If you are exposing a new API method, add a JavaDoc comment to it, but don't over-comment internal code.
- Follow the existing code style, don't antagonise over every space though !
All dependencies that are used are now available from a public Maven repo, so you don't have to worry about building several other projects just to add a simple change any more.

It might be :s The problem is that the islands sometimes overlap and biomes can't vary in the y direction. so we need a way to stop them overlapping. which is hard !

Posted Mar 15, 2012For some reason when I generate a world, it looks like grated cheese. Anyone got a way to fix this? (Yes it was without ANY plugins)

There is some memory leak or something with the dev version. If you allocate 2GB to your server it will stop the crashing otherwise wait for a fix :)
@VariousArtist
Yep that was a simple error, it should be fixed soon.

Posted Mar 13, 2012Heyho,
thanks for your great update, looks awsome.
BUT, after some minutes of exploring (or fill the World with Worldborder), the Server is freezing with high cpu load,
no messages, no errors, just freezed.
I have to made a hard-reset. (kill the process)

That is a problem with Either Bukkit or the plugin you used to create the world. For some reason it's not using the SkylandsPlus generator.

I think it was called DreamLand of something. It stopped being updated. And this is up and running, the current version works just fine !
