[Mod] Spawn Builder [1.1.1] [spawnbuilder]

[Wuzzy]

Generates a stone platform at world origin or the static spawn point.
Ideal to get started in the singlenode mapgen, but can be used in other mapgens as well.



Download
Download: Version 1.1.1

Details
Default size: 33×2×33. All stone, with a single cobblestone in the center.
The width can be changed with the spawnbuilder_width setting.

By default, the platform will be centered at (0,-1,0), but if the setting “static_spawnpoint” is present, the platform appears below that instead.
Also, 3 layers of air are generated above the platform, so it works in the underground, too.

Dependencies
No additional mods required, this mod should work in basically all subgames out of the box.

In case you find a subgame in which this mod does not work (but should), please tell me and/or the subgame author.

So is it a void with just a platform that you start on?

[Wuzzy]

It's just generating the platform, plus 3 layers of air above. Everything else is not touched at all. It's very simple.


If you use this in singlenode, you start in an empty world with only the stone platform.

If you use this in another mapgen, the platform is generated if it is needed (that is: you don't enough room to spawn or you would fall to your doom. This is the case if static_spawnpoint is set to a strange value). The rest of the world stays intact.

The main motivation for this mod is basically singlenode being completely empty by default. This is not useful, because it is impossible to place your first block and you immediately just fall to your doom.

Oh ok was wondering if this mod can be used for a skyfactory type of subgame

[sorcerykid]

Very interesting concept. It reminds me of the spawn_sanitizer mod that lag created for just test (which was adapted for ESM and JT2). I know the goals are different since this mod is only concerned with constructing a platform, but I couldn't help notice the similarity :)

yes it probably could be and I made a skyfactory starting mod with single dirt block and pine tree already grown
for my skyfactory modpack doesn't mater what type of world gen you use for it, it will always generate a void world
you'll have to wait for my skyfactory v1.0 to be released if ya want it though

When i have enabled static_spawnpoint in the conf-file on the server. when i connect as player - f.i. cHyper - and use the command /spawn the system tells me that there is no spawnpoint set?? strange! Why this issue? Did i do something wrong? thanks for info, anyway.

[Wuzzy]

The /spawn command has nothing to do with this mod. It comes from another mod, or the game. I don't know which one. Good luck.

Also, a tiny update was released (v1.1.1) which adds the mod title to the mod metadata.
