A Skyland generator

SB-Skylands
A fork of SkylandsPlus+

I created an updated fork of the infamous SkylandsPlus+ world generator mainly for private usage, but i decided to share it with you. The current version only works Spigot 1.10 with the 'v1_10_R1' source prefix. It cannot be made easy in a version independent plugin as it heavily relies on NMS code.

1.8.8 Version - Spigot 1.8.8 with the 'v1_8_R3' source prefix

This is with option very-high:

Warning this is not compatible with old worlds generated with SkylandsPlus+

Features:
  • Uses NMS world generation code as much as it is possible.
  • A lot of Options
  • Natural and extremely beautiful world generation.
  • All ores can be generated everywhere (but are more commen at the buttom)
  • Glowstone ores AND crystals
  • All structures from the normal Overworld available.
  • Nearly untouched nether/theend skyland generation from SkylandsPlus+
Options:
General:
  • offset={number} - everything is moved up by this value
  • high - more floating islands stacked
  • very-high - even more floating islands stacked
  • high={number} - will use this value for island generation. Higher number means for floating islands stacked over each other. Default value = 128

    This also increases generation time. (very-high[=170]) takes 3 times as long as a world with default options) Also with a higher world the amount of waterfalls and lavafalls is drastically increased.

  • multicore - uses more than one core for generation. EXPERIMENTAL-&gt; Can crash server
Overworld skylands only:
  • no-decorated-caves - disables decorated caves (caves with grass/sand as ground)
  • no-caves - disables only caves with normal ground blocks
    Disable both to disable all caves. Will decrease generation time.
  • no-glowstone - disables glowstone ore and crystals
  • no-canyon - disables canyons
  • no-village - disables village generation
  • no-langeFeatures - disables Pyramide, Jungletemple, Desertwell
  • stronghold - enables stronghold generation (this can take place outside of islands)
  • mineshaft - enables mineshaft generation(this can take place outside of islands)
  • no-forest - replaces forests with plains
  • forest={biome} - replaces forests with biome
  • no-jungle - replaces jungles with plains
  • jungle={biome} - replaces jungles with biome
  • no-taiga - replaces deserts with plains
  • desert={biome} - replaces desert with biome
  • no-ice - replaces ice biomes with plains
  • ice={biome} - replaces ice biomes with biome
  • no-desert - replaces deserts with plains
  • desert={biome} - replaces deserts with biome
  • ocean={biome} - replaces oceans with biome. (Ocean is normally replaced with plains)
  • no-mushroom - replaces mushroom biomes with plains
  • mushroom={biome} - replaces mushroom biomes with biome
  • no-swampland - replaces swamplands with plains
  • swampland={biome} - replaces swamplands with biome

  • no-savanna- replaces savannas with plains

  • savanna={biome} - replaces savannas with biome
