Description
Mining World
This mod adds a separate mining world with customizable ore generation.
All generation is controlled via JSON files, allowing you to define:
- Ore type
- Blocks it replaces
- Height range
- Vein size and number of veins per chunk
- Chance of spawning
Players and servers can create their own ore sets without modifying the mod’s code.
Usage
- After installing the mod, use the command:
This creates a mining dimension with ore generation based on your JSON settings.
- JSON configuration files are located in:
- Example file iron_ore.json:
JSON Parameters
- ore_block — block to generate.
- replace_block — block that is replaced.
- min_height / max_height — vertical range for veins.
- min_vein_size / max_vein_size — minimum and maximum vein size.
- min_veins_per_chunk / max_veins_per_chunk — number of veins per chunk.
- chance — probability of vein spawning (0.0–1.0).
Adding Custom Generation
- Create a JSON file with your desired settings in data/<modid>/miningworld/.
- Restart the game or use /reload.
- Any new mining dimension created via /digdim will use these settings.
