Fixed a small bug. DDProperties.WorldRiftGenerationEnabled is supposed
to control whether rifts and gateways generate outside of Limbo. I
assume that rifts and gateways are always supposed to generate in Limbo
given the wording of that description. However, if the flag was set to
false, we would also disable rift generation in Limbo. I've fixed this
by ignoring that flag if we detect that the chunk is in Limbo.
Added checks for the material that a gateway is being built upon. Now
gateways no longer generate on top of trees. Combined with multiple
generation attempts, there is a good chance that they will find a gap
between trees to generate at ground level. I also added checks to stop
gateways and rifts from generating on top of the Nether's bedrock.
I fixed a subtle bug in RiftGenerator. The code for picking random
coordinates on the surface of a chunk would subtract a random amount
from the coordinate of the chunk's corner. Unfortunately, subtracting
meant that we would almost always generate coordinates OUTSIDE the
intended chunk. The correct calculation was to add, not subtract. This
meant that if you walked in a direction in which our gateways were
generated outside of existing chunks, then their data would be lost and
no gateways would generate!
To reproduce this bug, max out the chance of generating gateways and fly
in the direction that decreases X and Z. You must fly into new chunks.
After passing the gateways produced when you spawn (if this is a new
world) you'll see that gateways don't generate on the landscape.
However, if you change directions, they'll begin generating again.
In addition to fixing that bug, I also tweaked all the block setting
calls in RiftGenerator so that they'll trigger block updates and send
update packets to the client. I think triggering block updates will
prevent unusual problems with floating sand, gravel, etc.
Added a loop that allows RiftGenerator to retry generating a gateway if
it picks an invalid location for it. It has a limited number of tries
before it gives up and doesn't generate a gateway. I haven't added the
logic for avoiding generating on top of trees, but that'll be easy to
add now.
Overhauled RIftGenerator. The code is significantly more readable now.
It's commented and much more compact. I also removed all fields from
RiftGenerator - they were unnecessary and using them increased the risk
of buggy code. Made the code rely solely on the Random instance provided
by MC, meaning our rifts and gateways will be tied to the world seed.
Tweaked the code slightly so that clusters of rifts and gateways can
never generate in the same chunk. This was previously possible, although
highly unlikely. It's a work of art now. <3
Although fields were created in DDProperties for Monolith spawning and
Rift generation, they were mislabeled as reading the "World Rift
Generation Enabled" property. I gave them proper names. I also changed
the fields and names to be more intuitive and rewrote the descriptions.
For instance, "MonolithSpawnDensity" is a misnomer because as density
increases, there should be more Monoliths, not less. Now the properties
clearly state how they affect a feature. I rewrote the conditions that
used each property to correspond with those simplified descriptions and
gave the properties default values that will match the generation rates
seen before.
I also made the rift generation code less cryptic and fixed a bug; there
was a check that compared if a dimension was a pocket dimension by its
name to prevent rift generation. That name check was wrong - it would
never work. Now we check if the provider is an instance of
pocketProvider. That will continue working even if we change the way
that pocket dimensions are named.
Moved all configuration variables from mod_pocketDim to DDProperties
(formerly DimDoorsConfig). Changed property names to be clearer in
config file, modified some comments, and generally cleaned up the config
file. Fixed some missing properties and variables that were reading from
the wrong properties. Modified the order in which mod_pocketDim
instantiated some of its static fields so that they would load after
properties are read. Almost all classes load after properties are read.
Fixed indentation across various files and replaced references to
properties in mod_pocketDim with references to DDProperties.
