+# mcl_villages
+
+When creating buildings or farms for use with this mod, you can prevent paths
+from crossing areas by using the `mcl_villages:no_paths` block. You may need to
+stack them 2 high to prevent all paths. After the village paths have be laid
+this block will be replaced by air.
+
+## Building Interfaces
+
+### Parameter
+
+All of the following functions take a table with the following keys.
+
+#### Mandatory
+
+name
+
+: The name to use for the object.
+
+mts
+
+: The path to the mts format schema file.
+
+#### Optional
+
+yadjust
+
+: Y axis adjustment when placing the schema. This can be positive to raise the
+placement, or negative to lower it.
+
+	If your schema does not contain a ground layer then set this to 1.
+
+no_ground_turnip
+
+: If you don't want the foundation under the building modified, you can disable
+the ground turnip by setting this to true.
+
+	Mainly useful for small thing such as lamps, planters, etc.
+
+no_clearance
+
+: If you don't want the area around and above the building modified, you can
+disable the overground clearance by setting this to true.
+
+	Mainly useful for small thing such as lamps, planters, etc.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_lamp(table)
+
+Register a structure to use as a lamp. These will be added to the table used when
+adding lamps to paths during village creation.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_bell(table)
+
+Register a structure to use as a bell. These will be added to the table used when
+adding the bell during village creation.
+
+There is 1 bell per village.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_well(table)
+
+Register a structure to use as a well. These will be added to the table used when
+adding the wells during village creation.
+
+The number of wells is calculated randomly based on the number of beds in the
+village. Every 10 beds add 1 to the maximum number.
+
+e.g. 8 beds == 1 well, 15 beds == 1 or 2 wells, 22 beds == 1 to 3 wells, etc.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_building(table)
+
+Register a building used for jobs, houses, or other uses.
+
+The schema is parsed to work out how many jobs and beds are in it.
+
+If you are adding a job site for a custom profession then ensure you call
+```mobs_mc.register_villager_profession``` before you register a building using it.
+
+If a building doesn't have any job sites or beds then it may get added during
+the house placement phase. This will simply add another building to
+the village and will not affect the number of jobs or beds.
+
+#### Additional options
+
+The ```mcl_villages.register_building``` call accepts the following optional
+parameters in the table.
+
+min_jobs
+
+: A village will need at least this many jobs to have one of these buildings.
+
+  This is used to restrict buildings to bigger villages.
+
+max_jobs
+
+: A village will need less that or equal to (<=) this many jobs to have one of
+these buildings.
+
+  This is used to restrict buildings to smaller villages.
+
+num_others
+
+: A village will need this many other job sites before you can have another of
+these jobs sites.
+
+  This is used to influence the ratio of buildings in a village.
+
+is_mandatory
+
+: This ensures that each village will have at least one of these buildings.
+
+### mobs_mc.register_villager_profession(title, table)
+
+**TODO** this should be somewhere else.
+
+This API call allows you to register professions for villagers.
+
+It takes 2 arguments.
+
+1. title - The title to use for the profession.
+
+  This mus be unique; the profession will be rejected if this title is already
+  used.
+
+1. Record - a table containing the details of the profession, it contains the
+   following fields.
+
+	1. name: The name displayed for the profession in the UI.
+	1. texture: The texture to use for the profession
+	1. jobsite: the node or group name sued to flag blocks as job sites for this
+       profession
+	1. trades: a table containing trades with 1 entry for each trade level.
+
+You can access the current profession and job site data in
+```mobs_mc.professions``` and ```mobs_mc.jobsites```.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_on_village_placed(func)
+
+This function allows registering functions to be called after a village is
+laid out.
+
+Note that the village may not be completed as the building post processing is
+non-deterministic to avoid overloading the server.
+
+`settlement_info` is a table containing data for all the buildings in the
+village. The bell is always the first entry in the table.
+
+`blockseed` is the block seed for the chunk the village was generated for.
+Villages can extend outside of this chunk.
+
+```lua
+local function my_village_hook(settlement_info, blockseed)
+	minetest.log("The village has " .. #settlement_info .. " buildings in it!")
+end
+
+mcl_villages.register_on_village_placed(my_village_hook)
+```
+
+### mcl_villages.register_on_villager_spawned(func)
+
+This function allows registering functions to be called after a villager is
+placed as part of village generation.
+
+`villager_ent` is the entity created by `minetest.add_entity`.
+
+`blockseed` is the block seed for the chunk the village was generated for.
+Villages can extend outside of this chunk.
+
+```lua
+local function my_villager_hook(villager_ent, blockseed)
+	local l = villager_ent:get_luaentity()
+	minetest.log("The villager's id is " .. l._id)
+end
+
+mcl_villages.register_on_villager_spawned(my_villager_hook)
+```
+
+## Farm Interface
+
+These functions aid creating crops for use use in farms placed during village
+generation.
+
+### mcl_villages.get_crop_types()
+
+This allows checking what crop types are supported.
+
+Currently they are: grain, root, gourd, flower, bush, tree.
+
+Placement of gourds should take in to consideration the way they fruit.
+
+### mcl_villages.get_crops()
+
+Returns a table containing all registered crops.
+
+### mcl_villages.get_weighted_crop(biome, crop_type, pr)
+
+Gets a random crop for the biome and crop type.
+
+### mcl_villages.register_crop(crop_def)
+
+Registers a crop for use on farms.
+
+crop_def is a table with the following fields:
+
+* `node` the name of the crop node to place. e.g. `mcl_farming:wheat_1`.
+* `crop_type` the type crop. e.g. `grain`
+* `biomes` a table containing the weighting to give the crop.
+  * Supported biome values are:
+    * acacia
+    * bamboo
+    * desert
+    * jungle
+    * plains
+    * savanna
+    * spruce
+  * If you leave a biome out ot he definition then the crop will not be available in that biome.
+e.g.
+
+```lua
+mcl_villages.register_crop({
+	type = "grain",
+	node = "mcl_farming:wheat_1",
+	biomes = {
+		acacia = 10,
+		bamboo = 10,
+		desert = 10,
+		jungle = 10,
+		plains = 10,
+		savanna = 10,
+		spruce = 10,
+	},
+})
+```
+
+### Creating farms with replaceable crops
+
+To create a farm that will utilize registered crops you follow the basic process
+for creating a farm, but you leave out the crops.
+
+Once you have your farm constructed then instead of placing crops you place blocks named `mcl_villages:crop_*` over the dirt in the farm.
+
+Each crop type has 8 blocks that can be used for it. This allows, but does not
+guarantee, variety of crops in a farm.
+
+Each of the crop tiles has an image of a entity that it represents. This image
+is representative, not explicit.
+
+i.e. The root crop tiles have an image of a carrot on them, but they will be
+swapped for a random root crop, not always carrots.
+
+Each specific node will be replaced by a single item.
+
+e.g. if you use `mcl_villages:crop_root_1` and `mcl_villages:crop_root_2` in your farm then all there will be at most 2 types of root crops on the farm.
+
+It is random, so both types may get replaced by the same crop.
+
+Remember that gourds affect 5 nodes when they crop; a good farmer won't plant
+anything on the 4 nodes a fruit wil form and your farm should not do that
+either.
+
+Once you have saved the schema for your farm you register it with the building interface.
+
+e.g.
+
+```lua
+mcl_villages.register_building({
+	name = "my_farm",
+	mts = schem_path .. "/my_farm.mts",
+	num_others = 3,
+})
+```
+
+When a village is generated there will be a chance your farm will be placed, any
+crop blocks will be replaced by biome appropriate crops.
+
+If a crop cannot be found for a crop type in a biome, then a default will be
+used. This ensure all farming blocks are full, ven if it's al the same crop.
+
+The default is wheat.
+
+## Village Layout
+
+There are two methods for layout out villages, circle layout is more likely to be
+used for small villages and grid for large villages.
+
+The circle layout uses circles (surprise) to calculate if buildings overlap. It
+creates fairly widely spaced layouts.
+
+The grid layout uses a predetermined grid layout to positions buildings and uses
+AreaStore to adjust building position if there are collisions.
+
+The predetermined grid is below, position 0 is the bell, the other numbers are the order of placement.
