catacomb 0.3.7

Depends: default stairs
License: code WTFPL
Download
https://github.com/paramat/catacomb/archive/master.zip and rename to catacomb

Beware this is not an 'on generated' mapgen, this creeping dungeon can spread through older world areas. If using in a pre-existing world edit the generation limits to protect your creations.
To try out this mod without searching for a dungeon, edit the parameters to:
TCATA = -2
TCATSPA = 2
Start a new world, select creative mode, enable freemove, fly underground, place any one of the 4 spawner nodes and wait a minute.
A dungeon system spawns with spaced initial chambers in underground chunks below y = -32, you may have to travel several kn to find one.
You can control the size of the spawning and generation volumes by editing parameters TCATSPA and TCATA, reduce these for larger volumes.
Dungeons are shaped and spaced by 3D noise, over time they grow out to their generation limit then chamber spawner placement is disabled.
Passageways have walkable stairs and are high enough for rapid descent. Below a certain y stairs and passage floors remain if they pass through previously generated chambers.
Minimum and maximum passage length and width, chamber width and height can be set by parameter.
At any time parameter GEN can be set to false, stopping dungeon spawn and spread.
For an ever-shifting interpenetrating dungeon nightmare set parameter OBCHECK to false.
Default cobble dungeons remain and are merged, desert temples lose their desert stone walls.
^ With parameter OBCHECK = false

This is very neat, looks like you put a lot of time and effort into it as well! Not to mention that you thought everything out quite carefully and made it so that it can be kept in check. If I were to give any critique at all, it would be that it has a saddening lack of mossy cobble... which is hardly anything at all, really.

Version 0.3.5
Big rewrite of spawn abms, combined passage and chamber generation int one abm. Now if the chamber is obstructed the passageway is not generated, so no more dead-end passageways.
Passageways now vay in width from 1 node to full chamber width.
Initial chambers at catacomb spawn are mapchunk size for the moment, probably smaller in future.

Works fine for me on mg7.
You might not notice it at first if you are out looking for them spawning on their own
but if you place a chamber node you find out pretty quick.
Man catacomb mod and Subterrain mod are 2 of my favorite mods to experiment with

You may need to fly underground (below y = -33) for a while to find these. Also they only appear in newly-generated terrain.

Code: Select all
-- dungeons_node_mod
minetest.register_ore({
ore_type = "scatter",
ore = "catacomb:chambers",
wherein = "default:stone",
clust_scarcity = 18 * 18 * 18,
clust_num_ores = 1,
clust_size = 1,
y_min = -255,
y_max = -56,
})
minetest.register_ore({
ore_type = "scatter",
ore = "catacomb:chambern",
wherein = "default:stone",
clust_scarcity = 14 * 14 * 14,
clust_num_ores = 1,
clust_size = 1,
y_min = -31000,
y_max = -56,
})
put that in default>>mapgen between copper and mese!
it works super fine for me!

This mod is fantastic, me and my friends have had alot of fun exploring these, but I would want an incentive for actually going in, is there going to be any sort of way to implement loot? (chests with treasures and stuff)?
Edit: Pardon me for necrobumping this thread if possible.

Secret treasure room would be cool. I think could be done with "default" stuff (diamond, gold, etc blocks).

I've neglected my mods for a while, a want to create surface entrances for these dungeons to make them more findable. I'm more interested in the basic generation so others may want to fork this to add treasure or other features.

Once you find a good way to place a surface entrance, please tell me. I've an older mindes mod lying around that could use some help in that direction. It comes with vertical shafts but doesn't have any useful code yet as to where to place the mines. Maybe I ought to open a thread and see if anyone likes to take over.

Hi,
Many thanks for this mod. Is Beautiful! But I have problems in use it...
who can help me to play it?
eg:
- When I place one spawn point is right that generates only one stair and one room? (I thought would generate a huge number of rooms connected by stairs)
- Frequently when I insert one spawn point, anything is generated and the terminal tells me that: "Chamber obstructed" ... why?
- REQUEST: you can specify what material to use to generate the rooms/stairs?
many thanks for all again...

Any spawner node will only generate a room and maybe a stair or two, further rooms and corridors will generate as you explore, you need to walk near the walls and sometimes wait a few seconds for the next spawner node to be triggered by the player's presence.
Each room contains 'spawner nodes' in the walls that are triggered by ABM, the player needs to be within 32 nodes to trigger one.

This feature (which can be disabled) is to stop rooms intersecting, so that the dungeon grows around itself in a tidy way.
