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.

Does this work with Minecraft 1.0, latest MultiVerse and latest Bukkit Devbuild? I'm curious about this but can't get it to work. Every time I start the generation it generates an normal world, not a skyland-like one though I follow your instructions.

Edit:

Nevermind, I got it running. MultiVerse kinda crashes (it stills runs, but with internal errors, screwing everything up) after I imported the new "The End" world, thinking it was a skylands world but skylands ain't in the code anymore. After this it didn't load SkylandsPlus as a generator. After removing The End it now works fine! :D

2. Edit: Is it possible to change the background of the bottom texture/layer? I saw an old video of the now discontinued skylands feature in minecraft/multiverse that had clouds below the skyland islands. Anyone knows a plugin to help out? Or at least some help with the annoying changing background at Y=64? When above 64, the bottom is completely blue while below 64 it turns black into the "The End" portal texture... Kinda bugs me :/

I think world_skylands is the end dimension, it changed to world_the_end in the most recent version too.

You should mention that it's 1337 only.

Hello, I've been using your plugin for a while and today I got an error that I believe has to do with generating chunks, the error can be found here: http://pastebin.com/3NVmV194

My server information: System: Windows 7 6.1 (amd64) Java: Oracle Corporation 1.7.0 (http://java.oracle.com/) JVM: Oracle Corporation Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 21.0-b17 Available processors: 12 Available total memory: 4012.0 MB This server is running Craftbukkit version git-Bukkit-1.8.1-R4-11-g696ba64-b1479jnks (MC: 1.0.0)\This server is also sporting some funky dev build of Bukkit! Thank you

It's very disappointing to see the configuration removed. Why not set some defaults and then let people customise? On my server I'd like Skylands to be a place that's difficult to get to but has some rewards for making the effort. Hardcoded defaults that mirror ordinary biomes and a standard day-night cycle don't make it an interesting place to visit.

That said, your efforts to maintain the possibility of generating skylands is much appreciated and a focussed plugin that works is much better than a bloaty one that doesn't!

I'm using this generator without MultiVerse or any other multi-world plugin, and it's working perfectly fine. Just add the generator for your world into the bukkit.yml file.

For those people dumb enough not to read the "How do I use it" bar and just read past everything, well I got good news for you. This comment is in bold text letters! Also you need multiverse to get this plugin working correctly and so is with other World Generating plugins! If you want to thank me give me your soul and that would be enough :D
