    • generatorSettings

      @NotNull public WorldCreator generatorSettings(@NotNull String generatorSettings)
      Sets the generator settings of the world that will be created or loaded.

      Currently only WorldType.FLAT uses these settings, and expects them to be in JSON format with a valid biome (1.18.2 and above) defined. An example valid configuration is as follows: {"layers": [{"block": "stone", "height": 1}, {"block": "grass_block", "height": 1}], "biome":"plains"}

    • keepSpawnInMemory

      @NotNull public WorldCreator keepSpawnInMemory(boolean keepSpawnInMemory)

      keepSpawnInMemory - Whether the spawn chunks will be kept loaded
      Returns:
      This object, for chaining

      @Nullable public static ChunkGenerator getGeneratorForName(@NotNull String world, @Nullable String name, @Nullable CommandSender output)
      Attempts to get the ChunkGenerator with the given name.

      If the generator is not found, null will be returned and a message will be printed to the specified CommandSender explaining why.

      The name must be in the "plugin:id" notation, or optionally just "plugin", where "plugin" is the safe-name of a plugin and "id" is an optional unique identifier for the generator you wish to request from the plugin.

      Parameters:
      world - Name of the world this will be used for
      name - Name of the generator to retrieve
      output - Where to output if errors are present

    • getBiomeProviderForName

      @Nullable public static BiomeProvider getBiomeProviderForName(@NotNull String world, @Nullable String name, @Nullable CommandSender output)
      Attempts to get the BiomeProvider with the given name.

      If the biome provider is not found, null will be returned and a message will be printed to the specified CommandSender explaining why.

      The name must be in the "plugin:id" notation, or optionally just "plugin", where "plugin" is the safe-name of a plugin and "id" is an optional unique identifier for the biome provider you wish to request from the plugin.

      Parameters:
      world - Name of the world this will be used for
