Method Detail

generate

void generate(net.daporkchop.lib.random.PRandom random,
              IChunk chunk,
              int chunkX,
              int chunkZ)

Generates a given chunk.

Parameters:

random - an instance of PRandom for generating random numbers, initialized with a seed based on chunk's position

chunk - the chunk to generate

chunkX - the chunk's X coordinate

chunkZ - the chunk's Z coordinate

populate

void populate(net.daporkchop.lib.random.PRandom random,
              ChunkManager level,
              int chunkX,
              int chunkZ)

Populates a given chunk.

Parameters:

random - an instance of PRandom for generating random numbers, initialized with a seed based on chunk's position

level - a ChunkManager containing only a 3x3 square of generated chunks, centered around the chunk being populated

chunkX - the chunk's X coordinate

chunkZ - the chunk's Z coordinate

finish

void finish(net.daporkchop.lib.random.PRandom random,
            ChunkManager level,
            int chunkX,
            int chunkZ)

Finishes a given chunk.

This is identical in every respect to population, except it requires that the chunk and all of its neighbors have been populated rather than generated. This phase is intended for things like placing a layer of snow over cold biomes, where overlapping blocks from populated neighbors can cause inconsistent/unexpected results.

Parameters:

random - an instance of PRandom for generating random numbers, initialized with a seed based on chunk's position

level - a ChunkManager containing only a 3x3 square of generated chunks, centered around the chunk being populated

chunkX - the chunk's X coordinate

chunkZ - the chunk's Z coordinate
