Configuration and Modules

Configuration

Config Format

The config doesn't use the default forge format. Instead, it uses the JLSC (JSON-Like Structured Configuration) format. It's a fairly simple format, but if you have any trouble, feel free to contact me.

Options

Below is a list of all configuration options, besides modules:

  • The count option defines how many random ores are generated, and defaults to 300. Feel free to decrease or increase this, but note that increasing too much will increase lag. Also note that this option can be increased freely, but if you decrease this, worlds that were generated with a higher count will have issues (however, the issues should be fixed if you simply increase the count again, simply loading the world with a lower ore count shouldn't break or corrupt it)
  • The maxOres option defines the maximum number of ores to try and generate per chunk. Randores randomly selects X ores to try and generate in each chunk (without replacement), where X is min(maxOres, oreCount)
  • The convert option is related to the customization feature, which is discussed here
  • The debug option causes Randores to display debug information

Modules

The config file also has the sub-section modules, which defines what modules are enabled. Right now there are 6 modules, MobEquip, DungeonLoot, Dimensionless, StarterKit, Altar, and YouTubeMode, all of which can be enabled or disabled in the config.

Mob Equip

Enabled by default, Mob Equip will randomly give Skeletons, Zombies, and Vindicators sets of Randores weapons and armor. About 20% of these mobs will get the items. Note that "Skeletons" and "Zombies" refers to all skeletons and all zombies, including variants such as wither skeletons and zombie pigmen. Both the Skeleton and the Zombie have the random chance to receive a Sword, Axe, Battleaxe, or Sledgehammer, or none, while the Vindicator may receive either the Axe, the Battleaxe, or none. Additionally, if the randomly selected material has armor, the mob will receive a full set of armor. There is also a very small chance that a randomly selected item will receive the Empowered enchantment.

Dungeon Loot

Enabled by default, Dungeon Loot will add randores items to various generated chests, including mineshaft minecarts, mob spawner chests, stronghold chests, fortress chests, jungle temple chests, village blacksmith chests, end city chests, and the beginner chest. Note that the beginner chest will have a very low chance of enchantment, while the end city chests will have an extremely high chance of enchantment.

Dimensionless

Disabled by default, Dimensionless causes randores to attempt to spawn ores in every dimension. About 100 ores are generated for each of the vanilla dimensions, nether, overworld, and end. These ores are set in netherrack, stone, and endstone respectively. By default, randores will only try to spawn these ores in the nether, overworld, and end (respectively). However, if Dimensionless is enabled, randores will try to spawn them in every dimension. Not that the end ores still have to spawn in endstone, the nether ores still have to spawn in netherrack, and the overworld ores still have to spawn in stone. However, with dimensionless enabled, these ores will spawn in any dimension that has these blocks. This module should be used if you have some other mod that adds a dimension, and you want randores ores to spawn in that dimension.

Starter Kit

Disabled by default, Starter Kit will give new players a full set of randores items, including a weapon, a tool set, and armor. Only new players will get the starter kit. If this option is enabled later, players that have already logged into the world will not receive a starter kit. This option is useful if you want to skip some of the early game grinding.

Altar

Enabled by default, Altar will cause randores to randomly spawn small brick structures in the overworld (above ground). These structures are made out of a random brick from randores, and contain a single chest full of random randores items, all from the same material as the bricks.

YouTube Mode

Disabled by default, YouTube Mode greatly increases the chances that ores will spawn, and (if Altar is enabled), that altars will spawn. It is intended to make altars and ores easier to find in a showcase, but it could also be used if you want more ores and altars. To be precise, it doubles the number of ore spawns per chunk, and raises the chance that an Altar will try to spawn in a chunk from 0.5% to 10%
