Creating dimension

[SaltBeard]

Does anyone knows for good article for dimensions in Minecraft (something that will help me in creating my own), and probably some basic terrain generation?

oh sorry for late answer, v15.2

I haven't tried this but given that there are no other responses, I would start in a few places:

 

ForgeRegistries.DIMENSIONS provides registration for dimensions through DeferredRegister.

Search for the classes World and DimensionType - how does vanilla do it?

 

Code to change dimension (i.e. through a portal) is:

/**
   * Convenience method to change the dimension of the given entity.
   * 
   * @param entityIn
   * @param worldIn
   */
  private void changeDimension(Entity entityIn, World worldIn, RegistryKey<World> registryKey) {

    // Get the world of that key
    ServerWorld serverworld = ((ServerWorld) worldIn).getServer().getWorld(registryKey);

    // Change
    if (serverworld == null) {
      return;
    }

    entityIn.changeDimension(serverworld, new NoPortalTeleporter(serverworld));
  }

... so World is evidently important.

 

I'd also look into that RegistryKey business.

 

Afraid I don't have a lot of other advice

When I create my dimension, where I can define biome, terrain, structures generation?
