[Solved] How to generate something underwater?

[JoseTheCrafter]

Hello! I want to create seaweeds for my mod, but I don't know how to make it generate underwater :'(.  Could you help me, please? Than you!

If you need some other information, please tell me

Just put a check for the candidate block in your Generator or WorldGen for the candidate block:

if world.getBlockId(x,y+1,z) == Block.waterStill.blockID:
    # do stuff

I'm sorry but, how can I use it? (I say it because it gives me these errors and I am confused)

 

 

Multiple markers at this line

- Syntax error on token "if", assert

expected

- y cannot be resolved to a variable

- z cannot be resolved to a variable

- x cannot be resolved to a variable

 

 

I'm getting these errors in the "60." line

 

My code (If you want to see it):

X Y and Z are not defined What do you have them named?!

Are you a Java coder or not? That was Python syntax, which I'm sorry for, but not enough to tell you that you need parentheses around a Java "if" condition. And you should be putting that condition around line 66, and, if you're not smart enough to know which variables use instead of "x","y", and "z", then I'm not going to tell you. (Hint: You defined them yourself.)

 

_{Okay, rant over... I needed that. I'm sorry, I've been struggling with entities all day.}

[JoseTheCrafter]

Yes, I am a Java coder but not a veteran, so I can make many mistakes. It's okay, but as you can see, I'm relatively new and I need help to create new things. I learn when I write my code. Thank you for your help . Now I have this error. It occurs when I enter into a Ocean biome (Where I want to spawn the Seaweeds)

 

Sorry if I misspelled something, my English isn't very good (currently )

There spawning on top of the water but have no texture file.

[JoseTheCrafter]

Yes...I can see it, but I need it to spawn underwater, at the bottom of the ocean, like seaweeds. I think I have to decrease the Ycoord, isn't it? (But the ocean hasn't a regular bottom, so I'm trying to find out how.)

[invizzble]

you can copy the WorldMinable (hope you ever heard of it, if you don't, search on google how to make ores in the nether, that should help a lot) and then you can just add them like you do in the overworld with you max Ycord (for example 30)

[JoseTheCrafter]

Hello! I know how to make ores in the world, but I don't want it. I just want to spawn my Seaweeds IN the water. And...What has to do the Nether with the underwater generation?

[jordsta95]

You could make it so it use ore generation methods to spawn in ocean biomes, below laver 64 and above 50 (or something) that way it will spawn in oceans, and in the oceans, not below it

(1) You need to put a check in there for whatever block you want to replace.

(2) Make sure you have it as y+1 instead of y-1.

(3) You'll probably want to change waterStill to waterMoving (or whatever moving water is.) Sorry about that.

[JoseTheCrafter]

Hello ! I just make a new world generator (WorldGeneratorSeaWeed) that extends WorldGenerator. It checks what there are above and below of my block, so it can be placed in sand or dirt (for example). Thank you all for helping me and I'm sorry if I've been a bit lazy .
