[Mod] Random Block Gen [random_block_gen]

by slemon » Post

Generates world by randomly placing blocks and items inside blocks

Usage: start game, teleport to height of 20000, or build a ladder to height of 10000. Enjoy!

Features: ignores tnt and igniter groups to avoid lags
Configuration options (at the top of the init.lua file):

* MIN (default: 10000) -- minimum height after which to generate
* MAX (default: 20000) -- maximum height before which to generate
* DEBUG (default: false) -- enable debug messages
* groups_ignore -- groups to ignore, (by default used to avoid lag with fire and tnt)

Wow, that looks chaotically fun! Do the chests contain stuff on gen.?

And do blocks from other mods get mixed in as well?

Thanks!

Chests do not contain anything. In fact they, and any other inventory type block is not functional unless you pick it up and place it back. On the other hand, blocks from all enabled mods are mixed in unless they have restricted groups ("tnt" and "igniter").

Also, there is some weird physics involving doors and beds since they are two-nodes structures, but this mod can place each node separately. Probably that isn't a bug.

The game keeps crashing once I teleport up to 20000 y and the game lags a lot. Are there too many animated blocks?

I have the mods bundled with the game, along with:
3d_armor
bamboo_forest
bridgesx
home_blocks (my mod, has many animated blocks)
random_block_gen (Of course!)
snowdrift (I suspect this causes the lag)

haha, this is cool. Do the chests generate with random items in them too?

Can you upload an archive of your mod folder somewhere? (google drive?) I'll see if I can get rid of the lag.

You know, that's a great idea.

Update!

1. If player dies in the Random Block Gen region (from 10000 to 20000 on y axis), then it will respawn there as well
2. Now there is spacing between nodes (like https://www.planetminecraft.com/project ... vival-map/). This seems to reduce the lag and so I enabled previously disabled groups of blocks
3. Now any block can be a chest with probability 10%. Such block will contain random items from installed mods.

The new spacing is a start... Are the blocks generated on the worlds generation or when you get near 10000 nodes?

I'd upload the mod folder directly to this message but it won't let me. Would a screenshot of the folder's contents suffice?

What mods are you using with this mod? I am thinking of setting up a server.
