[0.13.x] [cube] game.regenerate_entity is just... wrong.

Post by bobingabout »

I had a report in my subforum that when someone using my mods entered the following command, the entire map was covered with ores.

Code: Select all

/c remote.call("bobores", "Regenerate")
considering that command is basically just a series of game.regenerate_entity(<orename>) commands, I found that odd.

So I did a small experiment, base game and nothing else, started a new game, and entered the command:

Code: Select all

/c game.regenerate_entity("iron-ore")
The result was the whole starting area covered in iron ore.

I wonder if this is some how connected to the behavior I observed at viewtopic.php?p=174148#p174148 with "water in starting area only" where the starting area code seems to cover the entire map instead of being confined to, well, the starting area.

Well... no, it's not. I would expect that it regenerates something similar to how the map generates ore in the first place.
