Basics

A map gen preset. Used in Prototype/MapGenPresets.

Mandatory properties

order

Type: Types/Order

Specifies the ordering in the map generator gui.

Optional properties

default

Type: Types/bool

Default: true

Whether this is the default preset. If set to true, this preset may not have any other properties besides this and order.

basic_settings

Type: Types/table

This is a table with the below key/value pairs. All key/value pairs are optional. If not set they will just use the default values.

  • terrain_segmentation - Types/MapGenSize
    • This is the inverse of "water scale" in the map generator GUI. So a water scale that shows as 50% in the GUI is a value of 1/0.5 = 2 for terrain_segmentation.
  • water - Types/MapGenSize
    • Shown as water coverage in the map generator GUI.
  • default_enable_all_autoplace_controls - Types/bool - Default: true
    • If this is false, then all autoplace controls will be disabled.
  • autoplace_controls - Types/table
Example:
autoplace_controls =
  {
    ["iron-ore"] = { richness = 2, size = 0.5, frequency=2},
    ["enemy-base"] = { size = 1},
    ["trees"] = { richness = 4}
  }
  • autoplace_settings - Types/table
  • property_expression_names - Types/table
    • Map of property name (e.g. "elevation") to name of noise expression that will provide it. Entries may be omitted. A notable usage is changing autoplace behavior of an entity based on the preset, which cannot be read from a noise expression.
  • starting_points - Types/table of Types/Position
    • Array of the positions of the starting areas.
  • seed - Types/uint32
    • Read by the game, but not used or set in the GUI.
  • width - Types/uint32
  • height - Types/uint32
  • starting_area - Types/MapGenSize
    • Size of the starting area. The starting area only effects enemy placement, and has no effect on resources.
  • peaceful_mode - Types/bool
  • cliff_settings - CliffPlacementSettings
