Silly Biome Tops, Biome Tweaker

SillyBiomeTops.txt

#Set top and filler for all biomes
# Coarse dirt, and Sandstone are "catchmes" for COG. Permits trees to be planted at worldgen.
# COG will later turn the dirt into netherrack and lava, and the sandstone into sandstone, netherrack, lava.
# Harder wildlife will kill the trees, and the saplings will "time out" with the unplantable ground
#
# NB: None of those will support unstable stone ... Enjoy caving

## So, coarse dirt does not work. That means normal grass/dirt as normal.
# COG will have to catch grass, and look deep -- grass can easily make it down to 59.

# Sandstone still works in filler.
# Shores, beaches, get sand normally (stone beach gets gravel ... maybe include that in limonite?)
# But deserts, mesas ... those sand-tops need to be "nastified" by COG, so we set them to the grass markers here.

## ** Ack, Mesa!
# Mesas will not work correctly unless they are sand and stained_hardened_clay.
# Period.
#
# Caves / ravines will not carve correctly with any other top/filler.

# What this means: Mesas have to look normal here, and tweaked in COG.
#
# Hardened clay, and stained hardened clay, can be matched easily. The top block (red sand)
# can be detected. So all the "nethering", netherrack, air pockets, etc, all has to be COG.

# Sandstone filler marker, lava oceans

## EXCLUDE TF !! -- 40-58
# Exclude mesas - 37-39, 165-167
# Exclude savanna M's 163-164 
# and mushroom islands (14)
#
# TF is left alone.
# Mesas have to be tweaked with COG only.
# Savanna M's are left alone (normal 163, plateau 164)
# Savanna M's, and Mesa plateau M's (M 166, FM 167) , are left as the "normal" vanilla biomes.
# Bryce (165) can be tweaked in COG.
# ** Surface block cannot be changed without clobbering spawns.
# NB: I think it can be changed to grass (permits identifying surface block).
# ** COG can/will look for grass.
#
# The ability of substitute to look for only the top of the ground won't work if
# grass has spread into cave openings, or if there are overhangs. That can happen
# anywhere. So, we have to have an explicit "top block" target for it.
# 
# Hence, I really need "grass" to work in all of those biomes.

## Things to look out for:
## 1. Jungles spawn very large amounts of trees, including some survivors.
## 2. Mega taigas spawn very large amounts of trees.
##
## Both of those may get toned down to pure netherrack (no trees) instead of dying trees.
