rooms

This is a simple map generator for minetest. It generates a really big dungeon!
The gameplay is a bit changed.
The dungeon has 3 layers:

• wood
• stonebrick
• water + stonebrick

Torches will disappear if they are placed in water!

Well, this is a very interesting concept for a map generator. Show this to Hybrid Dog sometime.

It would be cool to maintain the surface, and start this mapgen at -5 or something like that.

thank you for this feedback
Dragonop : yea, that is a great idea, I will add this :D

I added this now!
Its enable by default, so you need to choose a mpgen like v6 (not singlenode!!!)
If you want to disable it, you need to change the first line in init.lua of mpgen to

Code: Select all

local cave_rooms = false

[Dragonop]

Yes! Thanks cd2! I will test it with goblins mod and see what happends.

Awesome. You should really test rooms+valleys_mapgen

[BobbyBonsaimind]

I like it.

When I started out with Minetest I had such a similar idea in my head, you could create a "Cube" like world, though, it never passed the "that would be neat" stage in my mind.

Planet-sized dungeons! I like it.

This would have issues. When vmg runs, it writes over every world block, so if it gets loaded last (and it does for me), nothing else using voxelmanip (such as caverealms and rooms) gets a say in. They still use cpu time, but accomplish nothing.

I'm trying to think of a way around this that doesn't involve rewriting vmg in C as a real mapgen, but there are problems with every other method I've hit on.

Thank you for your feedback!
HybridDog made some changes in the code now:

• added desert stone
• added jungle wood

Do you have any ideas for this project? - just post them!

Do you have any ideas for this project? - just post them!

My thoughts:

- Great idea!

- Everytime I generate a world with your mod (using v6 as you recommended) most of the rooms are flooded by water and this is kinda annoying..
Edit2: I fell a little dumb now that I read the op again and notice that the water is part of the idea... but I still find it annoying :p

- I don't think ores should generate in the walls. I have 2 suggestions about this.. 1- Leave some random-shaped chunks of natural generated underground. 3d perlin noise would make this easily. 2- Add a separate mod in your modpack to generate chests with stuff.
Edit: just to make it clear, the objective of these 2 ideas is to make so that that player can still collect resources even if they don't generate on the walls. But in any circumstances I think they can make the map a little more fun.

I may experiment a little modding your mod when I have time.

thank you :D
I am going to add these things :D

Nice mod!
I have something similar implemented in this: https://github.com/slemonide/gridgen
If you will go below 30 from the surface, you'll see the dungeons.
