generic tech rooms LV-HV tier -> maybe have higher tier variants at later tier planet bases.

• mess hall (3 sizes)
• worker quarters (3 sizes)
• officers quarters (3 sizes)
• leader quarters
• chemical processing
• mining processing
• mining face (bare rock, machines, tracks, etc.)
• alien analysis (scanners, disassemblers, etc)
• mechanical rooms (wiremills, etc)
• hydroponics (3 sizes) large size has extractors/canners/pyros? Biosphere type area for large size?
• storage tanks room
• oxygen processing
• entertainment rooms (bar? Ping pong? Big screen TV?)
• training rooms (gym, training dummies, swimming pool, firing range)
• jail facilities
• airlocks is the "top" floor
• Power generation rooms (combustion, solar, nuke, exploded nukes?)
• storage rooms
• generic hallways, straight, +, T, 90* bend.
• Defense facilities (3 tiers)
• planning rooms (maps, tables, chairs, conference areas, glass displays)
• stairwell rooms will go down 1 level (maybe options for down 1, down 2, down 3? small/medium/large stairwells?) Stairwell rooms could use openblocks elevators - teleport into unknown area, super scary! Stairwell rooms should allow options as well. Stairwell special case, adds hallways next level down. Stairwells are extra tall maybe? 16x32x16?

Dead end rooms

• airlocks (limit to first floor)
• blank hallway
• hallway under construction
• trash/waste/garbage room - trashcans, broken machine hulls, left over bits put on the ground, gravel/sand, rotten food
• launchpads (limit to first floor) - compressed plates etc
• Observation dome (limit to first floor)
• Water storage/filtration rooms?
• Restrooms
• Morgue?
• Graveyard? Urns or gravestones

room detail tech

• lights
• spawners within room - blueprint is fully loaded with spawners, but real room only has percentage of using them.
• loot chests within room - blueprint is fully loaded with chests (maybe designate chest types in room description?)
• power within room provided by generators or battery banks, but possibly connected wires across base? Would be cool with decay if bases could be repaired. higher tier battery banks with transformers?
• locations for hallways, power, ducts on room boundaries
• room size set to 1 chunk? 16x16x16? 16x32x16 for defense towers/stairwells? entrance area set to Y level of 5ish? Gives up and down options to rooms.
• Room lists default blocks, with lists of alternate blocks based on decay level. What about NBT values?
• Room can have hidden areas/traps, but please not just behind random wall - make a marker or something, like a slightly different stone, or out of place bookcase type.
• when blueprinting room, default MC stone is not placed. So don't use airblocks unless you really want air.
• how to prevent players just cutting into rooms? Let them do it? High toughness blocks like reinforced obsidian? Would look like crap though. Maybe have a block that is normally air on surface but replaced with tough block underground?
• rooms can have internal levels up/down, ie dining facility might have stairs/elevator to upstairs area

generic notes

• each structure starts with a rng level of decay and difficulty, maybe tech level? Maybe range based on dimension information?
• higher decay pushes selections further right in decay list. What happens with decay as you get deeper? Less decay as you go deeper.
• What about power grids as decay increases? Some way to provide block data with less charge?
• are there ways to do intermittent lights? Are there any broken lights that blink?
• definitely deeper is harder difficulty.
• difficulty setting determines...what? lighting? Frequency of monster spawners? Number and amount of loot chests?
• tech levels, maybe blueprints are all 1 tech level (start at LV?), but description has replacement options for tech level.
• What about normal worldgen? Should rooms not replace airblocks underground? Hardish to implement.
• Average 4 corners of spawning chunk surface, place starting room there. When entering new chunks at level 0,, level ground to that level? What about underground rooms, push them out a cliff? Check for ground and add supports?

technical details

• first figure out list of rooms to add to the base
• use list of exits to process the rooms
• rotate rooms
• have an internal map of the dungeon, simple xyz grid based on number of floors
• allow for special per-room handling (default is none of course), but allows for special handling of stairs/elevators, defensive towers, launchpads, etc.
• require non-terminal rooms to have two entrances? Can be linear or right-angle. or allow termination?
• What to do if terminal rooms use up all exits? Regenerate? Maybe do basic level generation first and then place items in chunks afterwards. I like this idea. We can do this with a generic always-facing-north style and then rotate to place in-world one time?
• Do worldgen cascading or not? Almost have to.

Trapped areas?

[richardhendricks]

tripwires/plates that enable nuke fatally designed, with sirens animal/alien containment releases with lever or plates fires started in fluid storage areas machines turn on with plates

[richardhendricks]

if you feel fancy; GGreg also has the ability to spawn in space structures, exported from a spatial storage drive. And you can pass it generators for ore asteroids; To replace the build in sphere generator one of the many never used features we build in all those mods and i think i've never actually tried the "planet with ore spheres" dimension type :thinking:

Namikon atlantis was build back in the days when I was playing myself. It first was a sort of "omg we need this" while playing around with the Schematica mod, then I had to edit the massive ocean in with mcedit, as delta worldgen doesn't generate oceans; and we "pasted" the atlantis template in. In fact, it's a mix of 2 templates; The central tower is from a different scheme

so even if it doesn't allow TEs to be spawned, the framework/api exists, and probably just needs very little tweaks

check Galacticgreg for dimensional structure spawns

if you made like 5-20 modular tunnel/base parts, I can make several variants and add machines to them Avoid using anything besides vanilla, GT, GT++ blocks. Keep your workspace to 16 x 10 x 16 (x, y, z)

1600 blocks is a pain and that's 1536 :smile:

[richardhendricks]

Should we put a block, say above the doorway location, to tell your code if that is a valid entrance/exit? Like, stone is a valid exit, cobblestone is not?

[richardhendricks]

Bart has a worldgen that allows placing GT machines etc.
