Natural Coal Ore
Natural Coal Ore adds natural coal ore spawning to your Hytale world. Coal veins generate automatically in newly explored chunks with smaller, scattered veins instead of massive clusters. Ore appears between Y=10 and Y=120 by default.
Fully configurable - adjust vein size, spawn rates, and more through a simple JSON config file. Includes creative mode commands for manual ore spawning and testing.
This mod also add new recipes for charcoal and new items like Crushed Coal that can be made in salvage workbench.

Configuration
Configuration Setup
Navigate to your Hytale UserData folder:
%APPDATA%\Hytale\UserData\Mods\NaturalCoalOre\Config\
Create a file named CoalOre.json with the following content:
{
"CoalFuelQuality": 8.0,
"EnableCharcoalByproduct": true,
"MinY": 10,
"MaxY": 120,
"VeinsPerChunk": 20,
"MinVeinSize": 6,
"MaxVeinSize": 17,
"SpawnChance": 0.85,
"EnableNaturalGeneration": true,
"AllowedZones": [],
"AllowedBiomes": [],
"CustomOres": []
}
Default (no custom ores):
To add a custom ore:
"CustomOres": [
{
"OreName": "Ore_Lead_Volcanic",
"ReplacesBlocks": [
"Rock_Stone",
"Rock_Stone_Cobble",
"Rock_Stone_Mossy",
"Soil_Mud_Dry",
"Rock_Volcanic_Cracked_Lava",
"Rock_Volcanic"
],
"MinY": 26,
"MaxY": 50,
"VeinsPerChunk": 15,
"SpawnChance": 0.65,
"MinVeinSize": 3,
"MaxVeinSize": 4,
"AllowedZones": [],
"AllowedBiomes": []
}
]
You can also add multiple custom ores by adding more entries to the array!
To add to AllowedZones and AllowedBiomes Example:
"AllowedZones": [
"Zone1_Spawn",
"Zone2_Tier1"
],
"AllowedBiomes": [
"Plains_Spawn",
"Forest_Birch"
]
To see all the zone IDS: https://github.com/daniGreat/Natural-Coal-Ore/blob/master/zone-name-and-biome
How it works:
- Empty
AllowedZones = spawns in ALL zones
- Empty
AllowedBiomes = spawns in ALL biomes
- Specify zones/biomes to restrict where ores can spawn
Start the game - the config will be loaded automatically
if you didnt create custom folder and file it will use the default values.
