Ore Stone Variants

Ore Stone Variants 6.2

OSV 6.2 includes a ton of bug fixes, as well as support for a couple new mods, item and block tag support, and a bunch of QOL changes.

Tag Support

OSV 6.2 will now dynamically insert ore variants into existing item and block tags. Please note that these only exist in memory and are not generated inside of config/osv/resources. This is because tags tend to change unpredictably and there's no way to know whether to add new variants to a tag once the file has already generated.

OSV will give you the following toggles in the common config file:

• copyBlockTags
• copyItemTags
• copyBgTags
• copyFgTags
• copyDenseTags

As well as a toggle per ore inside of each ore's preset: copyTags

Variant-ception

Presets now have a nested field, which can point to any other preset when optionally given a chance to spawn. You can use this feature to create "poor" or "budding" variants, as well as any other variant variants you want

Place this object inside of your root object or under gen for more precise control:

    nested: [
      { type: "gold_ore", chance: 0.09, required: false }
    ]
  

New Mod Support

OSV now comes with out of the box support for two new mods:

• Oh, The Biomes You'll Go (BYG)
• DruidCraft

New Commands

• /osv reload -> reloads OSV presets and other assets. This is capable of reloading world generation settings and will take affect as soon as you restart your world. No need to reload the game.
• /osv regenerate -> regenerates and reloads OSV models and textures. Your old config/osv/resources/assets will be backed up inside of config/osv/backups. You will see a warning after creating more than 10 backups. Make sure to keep it clean.
• /osv get -> Gets a list of all variants in a given block or property type.

Other New Settings

• (presets) canBeDense -> whether a preset can ever spawn as a dense variant. You may need this in conjunction with nested types.
• (common) ignoreInvalidPresets -> whether to simply skip any presets that fail to load. The game will log the issue, but not crash. If you enable this feauture and encounter any issues in game with features mysteriously not working, please disable it before doing anything else.
• (common) ignoreInvalidEntries -> whether to simply skip any entries inside of blockRegistry.values. The game will log the issue, but not crash. If you enable this feature and encounter any issues in game with features mysteriously not working, please disable it before doing anything else.
• (common) generateResources -> whether to search for missing resources each time the game loads. You can disable this feature once all of your presets are finished and your game may load a little quicker as a result.

Miscellaneous

• /osv generate now supports a couple additional config types
• /osv generate no longer requires that all settings be found
• Ported the Hjson linter from Cave Generator. Your /osv display and /osv update command output should look a little nicer now.
• OSV will now ignore non-JSON files when loading presets
• You can now sort your presets into subdirectories
• The default presets are now sorted into subdirectories
• config/osv/resources can now be used as a datapack
• Deferred the default stage for all default ore presets so that variants are much more likely to successfully spawn inside of custom stone types.
• Several improved data types in code
• The new default block list is all all. This should hopefully make your setup a little less confusing for new users, as you'll only need to create new group entries and don't have to worry about the block list until you want more specific control over where your ores can spawn.
• /osv put will refuse to add any invalid entires
• Added a few more overrides to WorldInterceptor. Even more ore features can be imitated with this new versio.
• OSV will now detect when a texture.location is already an overlay and, if so, copy it directly instead of attempting to generate a mangled overlay from it.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed gen.count ignoring the spread syntax ([min, max])
• Fixed some registry names not working with /osv generate
• Fixed a rare and inconsistent ConcurrentModificationException that sometimes occurred with other mods
• Prevented some commands from running on the server side. You cannot generate presets on the server side because no client side assets exist there.
• Fixed random textures not working correctly. You can now place multiple textures inside of texture.original: [] or textures.original: { "...": [] } and multiple distinct, random block models will be generatd for these variants.
• Fixed a few of the values in mods.toml
