Adding Ore Layers - JBurlison/Pandaros.API GitHub Wiki

Step 1

Create a minable type in your types.json

 "Pandaros.Settlers.AutoLoad.infiniteemerald": {
    "icon": "./icons/infiniteemerald.png",
    "onPlaceAudio": "stonePlace",
    "onRemoveType": "Pandaros.Settlers.AutoLoad.rawemerald",
    "onRemoveAudio": "stoneDelete",
    "destructionTime": 2000,
    "sideall": "SELF",
    "npcLimit": 0,
    "maxStackSize": 600,
    "isDestructible": true,
    "customData": {
      "minerIsMineable": true,
      "minerMiningTime": 5
    },
    "categories": [
      "ore"
    ]
  }

Step 2

Create a ores json. Name this file whatever you want. ores.json is fine. Chance is a percentage, 1-100. NOTE: there is an additional property "ScienceBiome" to only spawn ores in a specific biome. Biomes currently are:

• sciencebiome.oldworld
• sciencebiome.newworld
• sciencebiome.fareast
• sciencebiome.arctic
• sciencebiome.tropics

[
  {
    "Chance": 1,
    "Depth": 20,
    "Type": "Pandaros.Settlers.AutoLoad.infiniteemerald"
  }
]

Step 3

Add the ores.json to your modinfo. In settlers, there is a custom json section. Full example

    "Pandaros.API.jsonFiles": [
      {
        "fileType": "Pandaros.API.OreLayers",
        "relativePath": "WorldGen/OreSettings.json"
      }
    ]
