I think the code for it wont

public override void WorldGenPostGen()
{
for(int amount = 0; amount < 120; amount++) //70 is the amount of veins
{
int x = Main.rand.Next(0,(int)Main.worldSurface);
int y = Main.rand.Next((int)Main.worldSurface, (int)Main.hellLayer);
int strength = Main.rand.Next(40, 80); //put it back to 4, 8
int steps = Main.rand.Next(40, 80);
WorldGen.OreRunner(x, y, strength, steps, TileDef.byName["MBMod:ErcOre"]);
}
}
here it is

Your maximum x value should be Main.maxTilesX, not (int)Main.worldSurface, when I said about the world surface I meant the y value

Great tutorial! Really helped a lot. But I got a problem...
My building generates just fine and so does the chest. My chest should has seven items in it but it just has two. It's the same with every chest in every building. Here is the code that I am using.

Code:

            int chestX = Main.rand.Next(1, len - 1);
            int chest1 = WorldGen.PlaceChest(x + chestX, y - floor - 1, 21, false, 1); // 0 for wood chest

                #region Place 1
                int rand2 = WorldGen.genRand.Next(2);
                if(rand2 == 0)
                {
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].SetDefaults("Dragonborn:Spiritsever");
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].stack = 1;
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].Prefix(-1);
                }
                else
                {
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].SetDefaults("Dragonborn:BlackHoleBlaster");
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].stack = 1;
                Main.chest[chest1].item[0].Prefix(-1);
                }

I'm gonna have to carefully explain where it is, but just before you end region 2, and start region 3, you forgot to add a }. So there was only a 1 / 7 chance for your chest to contain seven items. This should fix it (I think, i've not got time to test

)

(Sorry the code is messy, I recommend adding it yourself. Damn code formatter)

No problem!

SIDE NOTE:
Also, would anyone be interested in me adding a way to nicely add random loot to chests? Guess it wouldn't take too long!

Xman · Apr 20, 2015

I would. That is what I am trying to accomplish right now, but i think there is a easier way to do it. I would be happy if you did a tutorial on it

Boffin · Apr 20, 2015

New UPDATE on the tutorial!

-Added random loot
-Generally read stuff over and fixed stuff

VictorLes · Apr 22, 2015

Finally you made a thread for it

thanks for helping me before how to gen ores in tiles

Azu · Apr 23, 2015

Can you show the id's for locked biome chests and the ice, moss, cobweb, and jungle chests? I could use those.
Also, does this tutorial cover making a specific building (like a precise building) randomly? And (if it's possible) make it generate only a few specific times?

I could, but if you know where to find the sprite sheet for chests, you can just read it off of that. From the left to right starting on style 0.

Is that code in WorldGenModifyTaskList? Also, why are you removing whatever is at 14? I think it's CleanUpStrayTiles, which may not be the best thing to remove from the list

By the time you posted it the coder for my team already fixed it

Neojin · Apr 24, 2015

Thank you! This is some good information. A few parts might be a bit easier to read if they were moved into Code blocks though.

I don't think it's just Terraria that has Y+ in the downward direction. I believe most 2D XNA games share that coordinate system.

I added a link to this thread to the tAPI Community Resources OP. Thanks again!
