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.

I already know about the flat islands, if you read any of the comments you would realise that.
No.
@bluehasia
Yes. Custom biome distribution is coming soon.

Posted Mar 26, 2012When ever I use
mc create skylands normal -g SkylandsPlus
the world generates but then it says that there is no safe spawn? So then I manually teleported myself there and the world is completely empty. I'm using 1.2.3-R0.2 help?

Posted Mar 25, 2012Still using version .10
Sometimes hangs the server when generating new chunks (Read time out in console, nothing is saved, have to do a hard close)
Would love the update to fix the bottom of the islands if nothing else :)
Also I havent noticed ANY sand and i've explored +-2500x +-2500z.
Great plugin skylands is fantastic for survival!

If you still have the world loading you can just update the plugin. I would stick with 0.9.2 for now though, the beta is rather buggy at the moment (hence beta) :)

Posted Mar 25, 2012Hi, i used this generator in 1.1 and all worked fine, now it converted when i go into 1.2 i know thats normal, but then i notice that you had come out with an 1.2 update, does it work just to update the plugin or will i need like to reimport the generator to be able to get skyland again?

And how do I do that? I mean I cannot 'fly' and set it using /mv setspawn because I can't access the world in the first place and I do not know which co-ordinates to set it at. (MCedit does not help)

The current setup just looks wrong.
