Generating decoratives for one chunk

[sparr]

Code: Select all

surface.regenerate_decorative{chunks={{math.floor(slave_pos.x/32),math.floor(slave_pos.y/32)}}}

slave_pos is a tile position, so I'm trying to produce a single chunk position, and pass that to regenerate_decorative. I also tried {x=foo,y=bar} for the chunk position just in case. either way, I get this:

Code: Select all

Error while running event world-mirror::on_chunk_generated (ID 12)
Value must be a string in property tree at ROOT.chunks
stack traceback:
	__world-mirror__/control.lua:123: in function 'mirror_chunk'
	__world-mirror__/control.lua:140: in function <__world-mirror__/control.lua:126>

This sounds like it wants the chunks parameter to be a string instead of an array of chunkpositions?

You can't use the chunks parameter without also giving the decoratives to regenerate.

Is there a quick way to enumerate all of the default decoratives?

For future reference, if anyone else finds this thread...

Code: Select all

  -- get a list of all known autoplace-able decorative names
  local decorative_names = {}
  for k,v in pairs(game.decorative_prototypes) do
    if v.autoplace_specification then
      decorative_names[#decorative_names+1] = k
    end
  end
  -- apply them all to this chunk
  surface.regenerate_decorative(decorative_names, {{x=math.floor(position.x/32),y=math.floor(position.y/32)}})
