UberForest

UberTrees

UberTrees are large variants of regular Minecraft trees. The idea is that these trees are not so "overly" huge they're an eyesore but still large enough for people to stop and go wow at them. I'm also quite set on not making them "look like crap" and to have them have slight variations in height and leaf patterns so the server doesn't look like a copy and paste of the same tree everywhere.

Field	Default	Description
UberSpruceChanceModifier	25	When a spruce sapling grows, this is the first "check" it must pass to attempt to grow into an UberSpruce. The default vale of 25 means there is a 25% chance this sapling will "try" to grow uber. If there are obstructions the tree will instead grow like a normal spruce.
UberBirchChanceModifier	25	Same as above, but for UberBirch trees

Forest Growth

This is one of the most fun aspects of this plugin! Forests will naturally grow based on sapling growth. There is quite a lot of room for configuration here as some owners may wish to have extremely rapid and dense forests while others may wish for growth to happen slowly and fill in sparsely. This plugin allows for both and everything in between!

Field	Default	Description
isForestGrowthEnabled	true	Disable regular forest growth for non-Uber trees.
ForestSpreadSaplings	1	The number of saplings to attempt to plant when any tree grows. This applies to both Uber and regular trees!
isUberForestGrowthEnabled	true	Disable forest growth for Uber trees.
UberForestSpreadSaplings	3	The number of saplings to attempt to plant when only an Uber tree grows
SpreadRadius	14	The radius around the growing tree to attempt to plant saplings in
SaplingOvercrowdingRadius	3	The Safe-Zone radius around a sapling being planted to prevent overcrowding. If any other saplings are within this radius the sapling will not be planted. There will also be no attempt to replant this sapling - it died trying to take root ;)
ForestSpreadMinElevation	60	The minimum height needed for uberforests to spread. Saplings growing below this elevation will not generate saplings.
ForestSpreadMaxElevation	128	The maximum height allowed for uberforests to spread. Saplings growing above this elevation will not generate saplings.
[BiomeName]BiomeRateFactor	100	A sapling's ability to spread when in certain biomes can be reduce by reducing it's rate factor. Rate factor is basically a random chance roll out of a hundred that a sapling must pass before it can take root at all, on top of any other things such as overcrowding. Please see your config file for more details and a list of all biomes!

Forest Growth Example:

ForestSpreadSaplings: 2
UberForestSpreadSaplings: 5
SpreadRadius: 14
SaplingOvercrowdingRadius: 3

• A regular tree grows. 2 saplings will be planted within 14 blocks of the tree.
• An Uber tree grows. 2 saplings will be planted within 14 blocks of the tree. 5 saplings will also be planted within 14 blocks of the UberTree.
• An Uber tree grows in a field of saplings spaced every 3 blocks. All 7 (5+2) saplings attempt to grow but fail as the area is too overcrowded with saplings.
