[Solved] [1.12.2] Placing structures in ChunkGenerator causes "cascading worldgen" errors

Hi!  I'm new to MC modding, so I'm not too sure whether the format of this post is correct or not - if it isn't, please let me know how to change it in the future.

 

I'm working on a mod that generates one structure (16*y*16, y is anywhere between 4 and 32) in every chunk(it's supposed to completely fill the chunk on the surface from 0,0 to 16,16), which is why it's 16 blocks wide and 16 blocks long).  The structures are in .nbt files that load like they're supposed to and show up in-game - sometimes.  However, the structures aren't showing up in every chunk; rather, they show up only close to the chunk 0, 0 and are randomly scattered all over.  When I teleport myself over, it says that my mod is causing "cascading worldgen" issues.  I'm pretty sure it's because my structures aren't spawning in the chunks like they're supposed to and instead are overlapping into other chunks.  My problem is that I don't know why this happens and how to fix it.

 

Below is the code snippet from my ChunkGenerator class (yes, it implements IChunkGenerator).  I overrode the generateStructures function and added my own code.  I am aware that this is probably a terrible way to do this (it's probably in the wrong function and class), but I'm not sure how to make it better.  Can I have some advice?

 

@Override
    public boolean generateStructures(Chunk chunkIn, int x, int z) {//chunkIn isn't used.
    	PlacementSettings ps = new PlacementSettings().setRotation(BuildingGenerator.getRotation(x, z));//getRotation returns a random Rotation (EX Rotation.NONE, Rotation.CLOCKWISE_90)
        buildingGenerator.getBuilding(x, z).addBlocksToWorldChunk(world, new BlockPos(x * 16, BUILDING_Y_VALUE, z * 16), ps);//buildingGenerator.getBuilding(x, z) returns an object of class Template that is read from a .nbt file created by a structure block.
    	return false;//It crashes when I return true...?  I'm not sure why.
	}

 

If you need more clarification, I can always provide more information.  The crash log is attached.  Thanks in advance!

Hi!  I have already seen that article on Reddit, but I'm not sure how I should go about carrying out the solution.  The Reddit post says:

The solution is often very simple, they just need an offset. 

However, I don't know how to add the offset.  Do I just rewrite the code to generate

buildingGenerator.getBuilding(x, z).addBlocksToWorldChunk(world, new BlockPos(x * 16 - 8, BUILDING_Y_VALUE, z * 16 - 8), ps);//buildingGenerator.getBuilding(x, z) returns an object of class Template that is read from a .nbt file created by a structure block.

I've tried that before, but it still doesn't work.  It still prints the error, and behaves just like how it was without the change.  Hints, maybe?  Thank you for taking your time to help me.

 

 

 

P.S.: Here's the error in case it helps:

[Server thread/WARN] [FML]: Tutorial Dimension loaded a new chunk [33, 20] in dimension 0 (overworld) while populating chunk [35, 22], causing cascading worldgen lag.

int x, int z

You see these? 

Have you tried adding 8 to them before you use them? No? Why not?

x * 16

Are you sure about this? I thought x and z were already block coordinates.
Also, you should use <<4 to avoid issues with negative values being incorrectly rounded when dealing with chunk<->block conversions.

    • They were already updated, and just to double check I even did a cleanup and fresh update from that same page. I'm quite sure drivers are not the problem here. 
    • i tried downloading the drivers but it says no AMD graphics hardware has been detected    
    • Update your AMD/ATI drivers - get the drivers from their website - do not update via system  
    • As the title says i keep on crashing on forge 1.20.1 even without any mods downloaded, i have the latest drivers (nvidia) and vanilla minecraft works perfectly fine for me logs: https://pastebin.com/5UR01yG9
    • Hello everyone, I'm making this post to seek help for my modded block, It's a special block called FrozenBlock supposed to take the place of an old block, then after a set amount of ticks, it's supposed to revert its Block State, Entity, data... to the old block like this :  The problem I have is that the system breaks when handling multi blocks (I tried some fix but none of them worked) :  The bug I have identified is that the function "setOldBlockFields" in the item's "setFrozenBlock" function gets called once for the 1st block of multiblock getting frozen (as it should), but gets called a second time BEFORE creating the first FrozenBlock with the data of the 1st block, hence giving the same data to the two FrozenBlock :   Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=head] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@73681674 BlockEntityData : id:"minecraft:bed",x:3,y:-60,z:-6} Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=3, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=2, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} here is the code inside my custom "freeze" item :    @Override     public @NotNull InteractionResult useOn(@NotNull UseOnContext pContext) {         if (!pContext.getLevel().isClientSide() && pContext.getHand() == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {             BlockPos blockPos = pContext.getClickedPos();             BlockPos secondBlockPos = getMultiblockPos(blockPos, pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos));             if (secondBlockPos != null) {                 createFrozenBlock(pContext, secondBlockPos);             }             createFrozenBlock(pContext, blockPos);             return InteractionResult.SUCCESS;         }         return super.useOn(pContext);     }     public static void createFrozenBlock(UseOnContext pContext, BlockPos blockPos) {         BlockState oldState = pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos);         BlockEntity oldBlockEntity = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? pContext.getLevel().getBlockEntity(blockPos) : null;         CompoundTag oldBlockEntityData = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? oldBlockEntity.serializeNBT() : null;         if (oldBlockEntity != null) {             pContext.getLevel().removeBlockEntity(blockPos);         }         BlockState FrozenBlock = setFrozenBlock(oldState, oldBlockEntity, oldBlockEntityData);         pContext.getLevel().setBlockAndUpdate(blockPos, FrozenBlock);     }     public static BlockState setFrozenBlock(BlockState blockState, @Nullable BlockEntity blockEntity, @Nullable CompoundTag blockEntityData) {         BlockState FrozenBlock = BlockRegister.FROZEN_BLOCK.get().defaultBlockState();         ((FrozenBlock) FrozenBlock.getBlock()).setOldBlockFields(blockState, blockEntity, blockEntityData);         return FrozenBlock;     }
