Bukkit

I can't get the plugin to work on my 1.0.1 bukkit server. Everything I try doesn't seem to work...

What Am I doing wrong?

It would be helpful if the biome map had a coordinate grid.

Do Eyes of Ender work with this to find strongholds?

@Leiyun

oke thanks i will give it a try.

Nother quick question about the Ocean and River biomeConfig files. Their rarity and size parameters will -or so it says- not do anything until they're "not added as normal biome"

Given languages and their quirks, could this perhaps be "until they're added as normal biome" ? They're not in the biome lists per default, and I haven't gotten the impression that they're working, so maybe I should put them in the biome list to make the size and rarity parameters work?

@FreezePvP: Given the nature of the map generator, actually splitting the map into what you want may be a bit too precise. So far, this mod seems to allow us to influence the chance of things being created, but not the exact where and how

This looks perfect for my new map/server. Can this plugin also change weather and biomes? I would like to split the map in 8 biomes. I could just add sand instead of grass etc. But it wont look nice. As example the snow biome would be kinda impossible. But i really need something for this.

@Raws: That did the trick :D

I didn't realize that the server does not save to disk immediately after you exit your client. It says 'saving world' everytime I disconnect, so I assumed this was instant. I do believe I tried restarting the server, which in a sense should guarantee a write to disk, but I never explicitly stopped the server and waited a bit (its a rented server so I have to manage everything long-distance). This could be the problem. At least loading the map in MCedit now gives a more accurate depiction of what i've explored, than it did yesterday. Not perfect, but its good to know there's hope

Thanks :D

@Leiyun Try /tc map <world name>! Also works on the console without the slash.

Also, are you stopping your server and allowing it to write the world to disk before loading it in MCEdit?

Is there a way to forcibly generate the worldbiome.png for the world I'm currently working with? Mine went missing after an unfortunate accident, and wont regenerate automatically.

For some reason I also can't seem to get this world loaded into MCedit properly. It loaded properly once, yet then - after some more exploring ingame- It simply refuses to show certain chunks, even though I've explored them already. Heck, it acts as if its the same savegame as it was the first time I loaded it into MCedit, same time-stamp even... makes no sense :D !

Also the old generator seems to still use parts of the new generator as underwater still looks like it got clusterbombed.

We're having trouble in getting rid of the small lakes and small islands. and increasing the island size.

@sykefuu It will! There's no Minecraft 1.x release yet, but it's right around the corner, and the development build (v1.2.9 at the moment) linked at the bottom of the mod overview above these comments works great with CraftBukkit r1597.

@Khoorn Awesome, thank you! Isles and /tc reload are working great in 1.2.9 with CB r1597.

Still no luck with custom blocks, though. If I do something like ReplacedBlocks:13=163(50-55) or Ore(163,32,16,100,0,128,STONE), where block ID 163 is something not registered with Bukkit, the ReplacedBlocks entry is silently removed from the config, and the Ore(...) entry results in an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: https://gist.github.com/1498103

Edit: actually wait, Terrain Control replaces Ore(163, …) with Ore(X163, …), which is a block "name" assigned by BuildCraft, so it's seeing something… It also replaces Ore(OILSTILL, …) with Ore(X163, …), so I guess it must be close!

does the lastest release work of terrain control with the 1.0.0 release of bukkit ?

@gdea73

You can set the size of all biomes with GenerationDepth, but you can also set the size of all biomes in the different biome .ini-files. There you can make all the individual settings. You can increase the height make more mountains in it that way. You can go into the Taiga .ini and set it to be a snow-biome. I think you will also have to add it to the icebiomes in the world.ini. That way you should have snow there too.

I think the maximum range of most of the values is from -10.0 to 10.0

I think I figured it out using the zoom thing or something.

This plugin is amazing! I'm still sort of confused though, when the default value of something is 0.0 what is the range? -1 to +1? -1000 to +1000? This might help.

I've still got a few questions that I couldn't find answers to myself:

- How do I set the biome size (using the new terrain generator)? Do I use the GenerationDepth parameter? I set it to 16 and the biomes appear no smaller. - Any way to add snow to Taiga biomes automatically? - Can I allow mountains in biomes that aren't specific "mountain" biomes?

Khoorn, in version 1.2.9, does the old terrain generator still generate structures such as villages, strongholds, etc.?

I don't care about villages or strongholds much but I liked the idea of abandoned mineshafts in the generation.
