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.

could you make a version of the endbiome that is like the normal biome with just STONE replaced with END_STONE?

it would make the end have grass and treess and ore, just will have endstone everywhere instead of smooth! think of the possibilities for SMP!! this would be soo cool!! :)

Yep looks like Bukkit removed some biomes with the RB. I'll update as soon as I can (today) :D

I had a severe error, with this generator, when I updated our server to 1.3 (CraftBukkit 1.3.1-R1.0). When trying to generate new chunks, it crashes the whole server with the following error:

I had to disable our Skylands world to avoid constant server crashes.

Any fix would be greatly appreciated!

Yes they work. It should do, nothing has changed with the wgen API. Putting anything under the islands causes very buggy lighting that lags the client and the server, so not really possible. I tried it with lava in the nether and it basically crashed everything.

I hope that bridges will be optional. Would be a shame to have to spoil the pristine feel of the skylands..

I have had bridges on my to-do list for a very long time. they are not easy though since I would need to know where the lad would be before it gets generated to make them go in the right direction :s

I was excited to try this plugin, but it seems to have an unfortunate bug, Every time I try creating a sky lands world (normal type), it hangs around either 89% or 93%. By hangs I mean 5+ minutes of no activity. The console still occasionally logs that the progress is still at 93%, but it never seems to get past this.

I am using Craftbukkit 1.2.5-R5.0 with Multiverse. After a few force quits and attempts at using older plugin versions, etc, I got it to finally generate a world. Is this normal behavior?

Thanks!

Oh and could you add options in the config for what animals spawn? I dont like having creepers and hostile mobs spawn, but i want things sucha as wolves, ocelots, and other non hostile mobs. Other than that i think it is a great plugin. I have been wanting to have skylands and now i have a good one.

Hey first of all cool plugin. Second of all, when i try to create a skylands world ingame with multiverse, it brings up an error on the console that says something like spawn not safe, or no safe spawn found. I tried to tp to it and i find out that there was nothing generated. Like, literally, nothing at all was generated. I did find a temp-fix though. I went into my bukkit.yml file and added this :

worlds: world: generator: SkylandsPlus

That created my default world as a Skylands world. So then i used MV2 to create a normal world. Then after i created a warp to the skylands i tpd to the normal world which i can /setspawn in. Just thought you might like to know this. Also i have an xray mod installed and i noticed a huge lack of diamonds. Is this the way its supposed to be? Or is it a bug or an error on my part. Thanks for listening to me ramble on lol. :)
