Twisting vines Feature

Hardcoded block check

This feature has a hardcoded check for the block below the feature being netherrack,warped_nyliumorwarped_wart_block` and will not work on other blocks

The twisting_vines can be used to generate twisting vines in the world.

Configuration

The twisting_vines feature has the following configuration options:

Option Type Description
spread_width A positive int Specifies the spread width of the twisting vines. Max width is spread_width * 2 + 1
spread_height A positive int Specifies the spread height of the twisting vines. Max height is spread_height * 2 + 1
max_height A positive int Specifies the maximum height of the twisting vines. Actual height is max_height * 2

In code, the TwistingVinesConfig class is used to configure the feature.

Example

As an example, here's the configured- and placed feature to generate twisting vines in the nether:

ConfiguredFeatures.kt
val TWISTING_VINES = FeatureRegistry.registerConfiguredFeature(
    Machines,
    "twisting_vines",
    Feature.TWISTING_VINES,
    TwistingVinesConfig(
        8, // spreadWidth
        4, // spreadHeight
        8 // maxHeight
    )
)
PlacedFeatures.kt
val TWISTING_VINES = FeatureRegistry.registerPlacedFeature(
    Machines,
    "twisting_vines",
    Configurations.TWISTING_VINES,
    listOf(
        CountPlacement.of(10), // (1)!
        InSquarePlacement.spread(), // (2)!
        PlacementUtils.FULL_RANGE, // (3)!
        BiomeFilter.biome() // (4)!
    )
)
  1. 10 twisting vines per chunk.
  2. Spread the vines horizontally.
  3. Set the y-coordinate to a random value. The static constant is equivalent to 
    HeightRangePlacement.uniform(VerticalAnchor.bottom(), VerticalAnchor.top());
  4. Only place the vines if the location hasn't moved outside the warped forest biome.
