Spawnable Blocks Not Showing in 1.0-Walked Areas

[kylesutton]

Hey Plethora,

I noticed a similar problem to what @Smeo00 was having in #11, where paths I walked since the 1.0 update would show as unexplored chunks. After a fix you pushed, those chunks now display correctly. However, the Spawnable Blocks option seems to not show spawnable blocks for those same regions that used to be blacked out.

Here's a screenshot of part of a 180-block radius spawn check around my main area:

Thanks for a pretty amazing visualization tool! Kyle

Hi. Yep that's a known issue. The change from all "chunk data in one record" to cubic chunks that occurred with MCPE v1.0 is a big change for mcpe_viz to handle. I'll have a fix for this soon. (I miss the functionality too :)

Just pushed an update which should resolve this. Give it a try.

Updated & re-ran the spawn check, with slightly different results:

I'm guessing something's still not quite right, as the interior edges of the spawnable regions are still pretty squared.

However, there is an interesting development in the ring of down-arrows towards the center of the checked area. Here's the zoomed-in default view of that ring:

...here's the same view at layer 127:

...and finally, the view at the layer where the spawn points are actually marked (layer 16):

To install updates, I'm just overwriting the files & directories in my MCPEviz directory and overwriting the old map files with the newly generated ones. Let me know if there's a problem with that scheme that could be leading to these results.

Thanks, Kyle

Oh.. Yep. That didn't quite work out :) Just published an update that should resolve this. Give it a try.

Looks good!

No more squares:

I have another issue with the spawn check, but I'll open a separate ticket for it, as I don't think it's related to this cubic processing facet.

Thanks!
