A very old and very slow mod

Landup was my first mod, back when lua mapgen took a minute per chunk (before hmmmm added the lua voxel manipulator).

[Casimir]

I know, but I have yet to find time to make it faster.

Since the chunk above needed to be pre-generated, it may now be possible to use the 'non-mapgen voxelmanip' and process the surface chunk and the chunk above each time.

paramat, when l tried to generate trees after the ground mapgen was done, they somehow disappeared in some 16x16x16 chunks:

The 16x16x16 nodes wide cubes are usually called "mapblocks". 5x5x5 mapblocks form a mapchunk. And those mapchunks overlap with neighbouring mapchunks by 1 for cave generation and mudflow, thus making them in effect 7x7x7 large (1 overlapping at each side). I think that's what you're seeing here.

^ Yes this empty area might be running along the edge of a mapchunk, that would be a clue to the problem.
The bug may be due to your use of delaying functions.
You are missing vm:calc_lighting() in your use of the voxelmanip at https://github.com/HybridDog/sumpf/blob/master/sumpf/mapgen.lua#L434 could this be the cause of your shadow problems?
Seems to me there should be no need for delaying functions or fixing light, just make sure the tree tops stay below y = 63. Also set mapgen parameter 'nolight' so that lighting gets calculated once only after the on-generated function places the swamps and trees.

l don't have shadow problems. At first the ground is generated. Then without updating the map for each one trees are set with their own vms because they could need place outside the mapchunk (as far as l know). After that the mapchunk becomes updated one time that the shadows appear.

l think that delaying adding shadows allows the server to do more important things before (if https://github.com/HybridDog/function_d ... r/init.lua works).

How you did it?

How you did it?

I created a curve using a function f(x)=10*math.abs(x + math.sin(x) + math.sin(x + math.sin(x))). Here is the code: https://github.com/slemonide/gen/blob/master/init.lua

slemon, l can't view your screenshots

Edit: now l can see them

slemon, l can't view your screenshots

Me neither, please use a reachable image/file host.

Reminds me of http://huntingtonarchive.osu.edu/resources/images/buddhistIconography/mtMeru/Composite01and02.jpg, the rings of mountains surrounding Mount Meru in Buddhist cosmology (which also has stacked flat realms suitable for a Minetest world).
