Description

Bring Coal Back!

 

Bring Coal Back! introduces coal into Hytale with a context-aware world generation system that adapts the ore to the surrounding rock type.

Instead of spawning a single generic coal block everywhere, this mod generates rock-specific coal variants that match the geology of the world. Coal embedded in stone looks different from coal in basalt, shale, volcanic rock, granite, and more—resulting in a world that feels cohesive, natural, and visually consistent 🪨.

Coal veins are generated during new chunk creation, forming organic, natural-looking deposits across underground layers. Each block is replaced intelligently based on the original terrain, with a safe fallback for generic materials like dirt, gravel, or clay.

✨ Features

  • Coal variants for multiple rock types
  • Context-sensitive ore replacement
  • Intelligent fallback for non-rock blocks
  • Natural vein shapes and balanced underground distribution
  • Optimized generation using cached block IDs
  • Easily extensible: add new rock types via assets

🔗 Compatibility

Designed for players and modders who care about immersion, world consistency, and clean technical implementation, Bring Coal Back! makes underground exploration feel grounded—literally.
