Hi modders, I'm new around here and still learning. Right to my question: do you know how can I call my world generator after caves and other structures are generated? Is there any event I can subscribe or function I can override without messing with other mods irreversibly?

 

I'm currently using 1.12 IWorldGenerator, which I read you don't support, but I might upgrade. In any case, I guess the general question is:

 

How can I get my code called after the generation of each chunk, so I can do whatever I want with the chunk (in a thread safe way) without my changes being overwritten by vanilla generation afterwards?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

I see. I was wondering if there is a general answer relatively independent from the versions. What I want is maybe a ChunkGenerator that uses previous generators? How can I get my code called after the generation of each chunk, caves and all?

 

Are there any useful docs you know about that can make things easier, or should I read Forge+MC code directly?

 

Thank you for you time.

Worldgen has changed so radically with 1.15 and 1.16 that any answer I give you for a supported version is utterly unhelpful to you.

 

1.16 worldgen is handled by json data files, for instance.

Ok I understand.

 

Wow, that worries me. It sounds like porting worldgen mods to newer versions is really hard without a complete rewrite. Do you know if what I want is even possible within Forge?

No idea. 1.12 days, sure. COG can do that. Heck I even added an event to COG to fire after COG ran, so I could be sure that my code 100% ran after COG ran which already ran as super-last as it could.

I appreciate your fast answers. Yeah, I think I figured it out for 1.12 by messing with cave generation events. I wonder how I will port it to new versions though.

 

What does COG stand for? I cannot find it.
