New Tree Gen needed

[Fami6Xx]

Tree Generator is slow and sometimes not pretty Code is junk 😆 (I made it 27.11.2021 so it is understandable)

Ideas:

Abstract TreeGenerator Class

• abstract List generate() - Must be handled ASYNc for perfomance reasons
• public void build(List)
  • Main thread, repeating task 1 tick, every tick 1 block for pretty animation (Could be disabled?)
  • Called when generate() ends

generate()

• base algorithm for growing
• 3 Lists
  • Containing all where wood logs will be placed
  • End location of branches
  • Containing last locations
• only works with locations or vectors, doesn't handle blocks for thread safety

Other ideas

• Different types of generators?
• Main class, where you can choose from generators?
• Don't know how to implement branching right now with this method

An idea for generator:

• Vector from starting location going upwards
• Vector has 5% chance to change direction a little bit
• Vector has 2% chance to create a branch, which would be heading starting vector minus current vector flipped, so that it grows on other side from this

Build method would be pretty complicated, because it would have to calculate branch size but i have an idea for that

so we calculate length of branch and divide it by some number and that gets us the base width of branch and we just build around the vector blocks until its that width
