Alter 'large cactus' schematic to place another force-placed cactus node,
to replace the cactus seedling on growth.
Make schematic 5x7x5 to solve rotation, placement and protection check
issues.
Add a y-slice probability for height variation.
Growth time is tuned to not make this a faster way to obtain cactus nodes
compared to normal cactus farming.
Seedling texture by Extex101.
Use sapling/seedling description in protection intersection message in
'sapling_on_place' function.
Iron at y = 0 was far too easy to find.
Adjust gold lower region to be twice the depth of highest level, like
all other ores.
Diamond at y = -500 was too easy to progress to.
Make diamond and mese block deeper to create a depth progression from
mese crystal to diamond, to reflect tool progression.
This all creates a satisfying 2^n depth progression, with lower regions
being at twice the depth of highest levels.
Use noises to create a varying mix in coniferous forest biomes:
Areas of large pines only, areas of small pines only, mixed areas.
While also having areas of high and low tree densities.
Saplings grow into large or small pines with equal chance.
Make deeper, to compensate for ease of travel using 3D noise tunnels.
Make depth more progressive with value:
Ore, upper limit
Coal 64 no change
Iron 0 no change
Tin -32 > -64
Copper -16 > -128
Gold -64 > -256
Diamond -128 > -512
Mese crystal -64 > -512
Mese block -1024 no change
Make y of 1st density increase deeper but following a similar logic to before:
Ore, upper limit
Coal 0 no change
Iron -64 no change
Tin -128 no change
Copper -64 > -256
Gold -256 > -1024
Diamond -256 > -1024
Mese crystal -256 > -1024
Mese block -2048 new
Add second, denser layer of mese blocks with a decrease of separation and
increase in density equal to mese ore layers.
Only register floatland biomes if mgv7 'biomerepeat' flag is false.
Simplify floatland biomes to coniferous forest and ocean.
Make 'mgv7_floatland_level' and 'mgv7_shadow_limit' parameters global
values for mods to use to register their own floatland biomes.
This allows us to preserve mgv6 ore distribution while giving us the freedom
to alter ore distribution for other mapgens.
Other mapgens are larger scale and have 3D noise tunnels which make vertical
travel easier, so ores can be deeper.
Other mapgens have registered biomes which allows us to limit ores to certain
biomes.
Previously i had matched ore density to moreores, but this density was
too high and out of balance with MTGame, reduce density to be similar
to copper ore.
The 2 levels of underground ore were overlapping, fix.
Textures are actually by kilbith, update credits.
Also credit kilbith for bronze, copper, gold and steel blocks, credits
had not been updated at the time.
Use Calinou's textures from moreores mod.
Craft bronze from tin and copper instead of steel and copper.
Match ore density to the moreores mod but start ore at a depth of
y = -32 to be part of the depth progression of other ores.
A simple set of biomes for now: Ocean, coniferous forest, grassland,
sandstone desert.
Update biome lists for blob ores and decorations.
Make sandstone desert filler 1 node deeper to match other deserts.
Currently jungletrees and junglegrass use sidelen 80 for simplicity,
but this results in a more uneven distribution of decorations. A more
even distribution helps keep rainforest darker with a more unbroken
canopy.
This is also more consistent. 80 is based on the default mapchunk
size, all other decorations use sidelen 16 or smaller to divide into
any mapchunk size.
Denser jungletree for darker rainforest:
Highest 'jungletree' nodes now prob 255.
Add a 5th lower branch layer.
Increase lower branch layer y-slice prob to 191.
Aspen:
Extend trunk upwards by 1 node to reduce leafdecay radius to 2.
Pine:
Make lower trunk 1 node longer so that lowest branches are more often
higher off the ground, also to make pines taller.
Appletree:
Make 2 opposite branches prob 255, the other 2 prob 127, to avoid
trees with 1 or 0 branches. Therefore also add random rotation.
Now that biomes are being specified for blob ores we need a separate
set of blob ore registrations for mgv6 which has no Biome API biomes
defined.
Various minor improvements to mapgen.lua.
Biomes:
Add 'sandstone desert', 'cold desert', 'snowy grassland'.
Rename 'glacier' biome to 'icesheet' biome.
Rename non-swamp 'swamp' biomes to 'shore' biomes.
Remove 'sandstone grassland' biome.
Rename 'stone grassland' biome to 'grassland' biome.
Edit biome points for improved similarity to Whittaker classification.
Change 'tundra' to bare stone with snowblocks.
Make dirt 'swamp' / 'shore' less deep.
Ores:
Make dirt blob ore biome-specific, limit to dirt biomes.
Decorations:
Make mushroom noise spread match that of appletrees as originally intended,
to have mushrooms spawn in darker thicker forest areas.
Add coral reefs in warm oceans.
Add bushes and acacia bushes.
Jungletrees in deeper water for larger swamps.
Register flower mod decorations in singlenode mapgen for use by
minetest.generate_registered_decorations, as in default/mapgen.lua.
Nyancats are independent in the default mod. Nothing else uses them or
their code. Separating it into a separate mod makes it easier for
subgames to remove them. It also makes it easier for a mod to depend
on nyancats, as lots of subgames don't have them.
Default/mapgen.lua: Register biomes, ores and decorations in
singlenode mapgen. These were never disabled anyway because
singlenode was removed from the world creation menu.
Preserve overlapping registrations of large and small clusters
below y = -64 but now extend the small clusters up to y = 0 (the
previous highest iron ore level) in a similar to way to coal
Re-order registrations
Add and improve comments
Change sand blob ymax to 0 as sand does not always rise above 0
Remove dirt blobs from sandstone as it is unsuitable for
many sandstone biomes and ugly in stony sandstone desert
Change ymax of first iron region to 0
