Trippy Terrain
As the "World generators" tab is severely lacking, I thought I would create one. The purpose of this plugin is to make worlds! (NOT get you there! Get another plugin for that!) HOWEVER, if you have Essentials then you can use the "/world" command to teleport between worlds.
NEW in Version 1.0.1
I have added Multiverse/other multiworld support! Its a little complicated on how to use it- MultiVerse does not list this plugin when using "/mv gens". This is the command for multiverse on how to make a world with one of these environments is like so:
- /mv create <worldname> normal -g TrippyTerrain:<type>
So for example, this would work
- /mv create flatlands normal -g TrippyTerrain:flat
World types
Currently, there are 5 different options for world types.
- flat: A completly flat, grassy plain
- water: You guessed it, gigantic, 90- deep ocean stretching nigh upon infinity.
- space: Zero blocks anywhere, except for a spawn platform
- pancakes: My favorite. See screenshot.
- khyland: My terrain generator ported from my remake of Minecraft. Pretty trippy terrain.
How to use
Place the jar in your plugins folder A config.yml file will generate on first run. Note that NO WORLDS WILL BE MADE on first run! Inside the config.yml file, place an outline like this (ignore the dashes/dots!):
- <worldname>:
- - - type: <type>
So something like this will work:
- pancakeWorld:
- - - type: pancakes
- otherworld:
- - - type: space

Suggestions
As always, I am completely open to new terrain ideas. I really want this plugin to have everything from biospheres to who-knows-what. So, if you have an idea for terrain, post it!
Terrain todos
- Ores in existing terrains
- Biospheres
- Plots
Technical todos
- fix the incredibly rare hang on world generation. If someone has this problem, please post how it happened and what you think caused it.
awesome plugin but you should add a wasteland generator that is what I am looking for the wasteland would be a normal terrain but there is no grass few trees all grass blocks would be instead dirt blocks
I love the design of Khyland, however when i use mv to create one, then /mvtp Khyland, there are huge chunks missing. It seems that whenever it has to create new chunks, they simply do not generate. There are mobs and animals falling into the void below rapidly.
I can /spawn (which takes me to first world) then /back which goes back to Khyland, and the chunks are there then. I tested with 2 players in Khyland, and same chunks were missing. /spawn > /back fixed the chunks as long as the other player was not within sight of the broken chunks.
I think a good generator would make EXTREMELY tall mountains. Mostly flat terrain witj tje occasional mountain that reaches the sky. The mountains should be very thin, maybe a 10 block diameter. Also maybe one that generates the land in tessellations such as triangles or octagons. all of them are at different elevations. that would be cool. Thanks.
I am wondering, would this allow me to generate a desert world? *think dune or Tatooine with custom ore percentages. (I have plans that require this to make it work, if you want to know, contact me and ask.
Your water world sounds like it would fit the bill for another planet found in the Dune mythos. (as well as a couple from the Starrigger trilogy by John DeChancie. (*that last writers work has a LOT to do with what I am on about, and need a world generator for ;))
Is there any plan to continue this plugin?
BIOSPHERES!!!!! Yes Please!
if you had about 5 more generators, then i would totally get this. For now, though, it would not be worth the space it takes up. Srry. WORK ON THIS. This has potential! ;)
message me when this has biomes! why not make some trippy cutom biomes too!!
@mraof
Actually, I slightly goofed and created it for 1.0.0... I have not tested it on 1.8. Are there any error messages that pop up? Those would be very helpful. Also, try updating bukkit. However, I don't see any reason it would fail, as I use code that has been around for a pretty long time.
EDIT: uploaded source to github, check the discription
Could you upload the source or make a version for the 1.0.0 bukkit? It looks awesome but It doesn't seem to create any kind of config or a folder for itself, and my server asks if its up to date, so I assume that it being for an older version of bukkit is the problem
