Description
Random world names
Generates random world names for the world creation screen. Just New World gets boring after a while, doesn't it?
The default list of names allows for over 10 billion different combinations. There are only two cases the default name is used:
- Either your computer is too slow to generate a new name within the configured time limit (default 2 seconds)
- Or you have so many worlds that no unique combinations could be found
Configuration (from version 1.1.0)
Config file
The config file (as of version 1.1.0) offers the following options:
Name Description Default value name_length The number of words (name entries) to generate a name from 3 delimiter The delimiter to use for joining the entries (Space) timeout The generation timeout (seconds) 2In-Game configuration is possible if ModMenu is installed.
Resource pack configuration
Additional names can be added using resource packs, and unwanted packs may be blacklisted.

Versions below 1.1.0 only contain the functionality to add names using the names.json file.
That's it!
