[1.7.10] custom flowers are not spawning in custom biome

[slugslug]

I am trying to make a custom biome and i got my custom tree to spawn but not as frequent as i would like and i cant seem to figure out how to make it spawn more. I add my flowers with the addFlowers method in the constructor  and only one spawns when i bonemeal the ground.  I cant seem to find a away that works to make my flowers randmly spawn in the biome.

 

Here is my class:

What are the addFlower and plantFlower functions? Are they in BiomeGenBase? If so, just use WorldGenFlowers to generate your flowers. And maybe move your world gen code to a class that implements IWorldGenerator.

[slugslug]

Yes addflowers and plant flowers are in biomegenbase.  Add flowers I think adds them to a list and when you bone meal it picks flowers based on weight.  Were would I use worldgenflowers?

[Eternaldoom]

Change y in your decorate method to world.getHeightValue(x, z) add the following to your decorate method:

 

new WorldGenFlowers(ModBlocks.plasticFlower).generate(world, random, x, y, z);

[slugslug]

Ok that works but I have one promblem.  I have multiply flowers but just with fifferent metadata.  So how would I make it spawn all the flowers just not the first flower with metadata 0?

[Eternaldoom]

Make your own WorldGenFlowers class that accepts metadata as a parameter. Here is one you can copy and paste:

 

public class ModWorldGenFlowers extends WorldGenerator
{
    private Block flower;
    private int meta;

    public ModWorldGenFlowers(Block flower, int metadata)
    {
        this.flower = flower;
        this.meta = metadata;
    }

    public boolean generate(World world, Random rand, int i, int j, int k)
    {
        for (int var6 = 0; var6 < 64; ++var6)
        {
            int var7 = i + rand.nextInt( - rand.nextInt(;
            int var8 = j + rand.nextInt(4) - rand.nextInt(4);
            int var9 = k + rand.nextInt( - rand.nextInt(;

            if (world.isAirBlock(var7, var8, var9) && (!world.provider.hasNoSky || var8 < 255) && this.flower.canBlockStay(world, var7, var8, var9))
            {
                world.setBlock(var7, var8, var9, this.flower, this.meta, 2);
            }
        }

        return true;
    }
}
