It must be installed on the client. Installation on the dedicated server is optional.

About this project

What does Terrain Slabs add?

Requires PlaceOnSlabs mod

Never again shall we have to jump around like monkeys just to walk places

Description

This mod adds an additional pass in world generation which smoothes terrain by replacing edge blocks with slab variants. Simple as that.

This mod uses PlaceOnSlabs mod, you can place some stuff on slabs and they will be offset, so you don't have to stare at floating grass.

Slabs drop regular blocks, so your inventory space won't suffer. You can craft slabs for your landforming desires.

Generated structures and story locations are unaffected by this mod to avoid any potential issues

Configuration

You can choose generation mode:

  • Column. Default mode. Scans the whole chunk column starting from the surface in order to affect caves. Can be set using /ts g s Column . Can be manually triggered using /ts s c 500  or reverted using /ts us c 500
  • Surface. Uses height map to replace blocks. A lot faster than Column, but no caves. Can be set using /ts g s Surface. Can be manually triggered using /ts s s 500  or reverted using /ts us s 500
  • None. Disables smoothing. Can be set using /ts g s None 

 

I won't add support to ConfigLib until it authors fix its memory leaks. I don't have time to fix them myself right now.

Compatibility

Should be compatible with most mods that affect world generation (like BetterRuins, Terra Prety, VanillaPlus Worldgen etc)

Should be compatible with all mods that add vegetation (Wildgrass, Floral Zones, Wildcraft etc)

Can be incompatible with mods that interact with surface blocks (like Trail Mod)

Compatibility list

Existing saves

The changes are revertable, so you can try this mod in your existing worlds. I would still recommend to backup your world, though.

If you want to smooth your existing chunks, run this command: /ts s c 500 (range is adjustable). It will update only loaded chunks nearby, so you might want to repeat this command for far/unloaded chunks. I haven't implemented a way to fully smooth your whole world at once.

If you want to remove this mod midsave:

1) Disable world generation pass by running this command /ts g s None

2) Run /ts us c 500 to unsmooth your terrain (ew)

FAQ

  • Do slabs work with instability?
    Yes, and with cave ins as well. They have the same attributes as full blocks and converted to blocks when they fall to prevent jittering (try dropping a sand block on wooden slab to get the idea). 
  • I don't like the dirt gap on grassy blocks
    Here.

Known issues

  • Bamboo and redwood don't replace the slabs underneath them with full blocks when they grow from a sapling
  • Connected textures don't work for slabs when using Conquest VS Edition. This applies to all slabs in game actually and requries a harmony patch to the game engine (I will fix this someday)
