Hey there, I want to make an ore only spawn in a custom dimension"Main.dimensionID" how would I make it so that I spawn something there?

 

I haven't messed with anything other than vanilla dimensions before

Same way that you'd spawn any other ore. Just check for your dimension ID in your IWorldGenerator.

So if this is the nether

      case 1:

      generateNether(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);

then

      case Main.dimensionID:

      generateDim(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);

 

?

 

You need a

break;

in there too, I would hope.

As I said, I don't know how to do dimension stuff, so I am sorta stumped on this. I tried doing this, only to have the game crash:

@Override
  public void generate(Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider) { 
      switch(world.provider.dimensionId){
      case 1:
      generateNether(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);
      case 0:
          generateSurface(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);
      case -1:
          generateEnd(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);
      case Main.dimensionID:
    	    generateDim(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);
      }
  }

  private void generateEnd(World world, Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {
      for(int i = 0; i < 60; i++){
          int xCoord = chunkX + random.nextInt(16);
          int yCoord = random.nextInt(60);
          int zCoord = chunkZ + random.nextInt(16);
      }
  }

  private void generateSurface(World world, Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {
      for(int i = 0; i < 60; i++){
          int xCoord = chunkX + random.nextInt(16);
          int yCoord = random.nextInt(60);
          int zCoord = chunkZ + random.nextInt(16);
         }  

               
  }

  private void generateNether(World world, Random random, int chunkX,
          int chunkZ) {
      for(int i = 0; i < 60; i++){
          int xCoord = chunkX + random.nextInt(16);
          int yCoord = random.nextInt(60);
          int zCoord = chunkZ + random.nextInt(16);
      } 
  }


  private void generateDim(World world, Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ) {
      for(int i = 0; i < 60; i++){
          int xCoord = chunkX + random.nextInt(16);
          int yCoord = random.nextInt(60);
          int zCoord = chunkZ + random.nextInt(16);
          (new WorldGenMinable(blockRegist.endOre, 400, Blocks.stone)).generate(world, random, xCoord, yCoord, zCoord);}  

               
  }
    
}

My comment had nothing to do with "dimension stuff" but "java stuff."

You don't have any

break

s between your case statements.

Added in the breaks, and can now load the world, but when travelling to the dimension there is still the same crash:

You generate too much of your ore. Try lowering the 60 passes per chunk.

 

THANK YOU!

 

I didn't know that numbers too big would be that much of a hassle, I never had issues with 200 (as a test figure) in the end... but I guess other ores genning in the same area can cause issues
