PresetsFileFormat
The Presets File is a simple but complex thing, containing a json object where the keys point to any form of values. More than that, you can even include a "presets" section in a raw config that only applies to that file. When referencing a preset you use the format of $<name>[.<name>...]
building a path down the object tree.
An example of a presets file:
{
"dimensions": {
"all-overworld": [],
"overworld": [ 0 ],
"nether": [ -1 ],
"end": [ 1 ]
},
"biomes": {
"emeralds": { "includes": [ "minecraft:extreme_hills", "minecraft:smaller_extreme_hills" ] },
"open-area": { "includes": [ "PLAINS", "DESERT", "WASTELAND" ] },
"hilly": { "includes": [ "HILLS", "MOUNTAIN" ] },
"sandy": { "includes": [ "BEACH", "DESERT" ] },
"special": { "includes": [ "MUSHROOM", "MAGICAL" ] },
"desolate": { "includes": [ "DESERT", "WASTELAND", "FROZEN" ], "excludes": [ "minecraft:taiga" ] },
"any": { "excludes": [ ] }
},
"blocks": {
"iron-mix-1": [ { "name": "minecraft:iron_ore", "chance": 100 },
{ "name": "basemetals:nickel_ore", "chance":50 },
{ "name": "modernmetals:chromium_ore", "chance":10 } ],
"silver-mix": [ { "name": "basemetals:lead_ore", "chance": 25 },
{ "name": "basemetals:silver_ore", "chance": 75 } ]
},
"parameters": {
"cluster-frequent-large": {
"max-spread": 32,
"cluster-size": 32,
"cluster-count": 16,
"min-height": 13,
"max-height": 80,
"variance": 4,
"frequency": 25,
"tries-per-chunk": 16
}
}
}
In the above example I have organized it based on what the section contained - dimension lists, biome lists, blocks and feature generator parameters. If, in a config, I wished to use the blocks preset "iron-mix-1", it would be as $blocks.iron-mix-1
and if I wanted to reference the "open-area" biomes preset, it would be $biomes.open-area
.
This layout might work for me, but remember - the only requirement of the format is that it be defined as a json object containing other json objects. As long as you can define a "path" for the variable that meets the description given here, there should be no issues.
