i was wondering what can be done with the bukkit.yml especially concerning world generation. is it possible to create a world by editing the bukkit.yml and avoid the use of a multi-world plugin. my users cant use maps on multiverse worlds and i was wondering if multiverse could be avoided
No, it can not be used for what you described and secondly, multiverse works fine. You probably just did it wrong and didn't read instructions.
yes multiverse works. it makes worlds but in those worlds users cant use the minecraft 1.6 craft-able maps. i have read the multiverse instructions plenty, none say anything about maps showing up blank. i've been using multiverse for a while this is the only issue the maps don't generate on worlds that aren't world or world_nether I went ahead and tried again with the new RB:953 completely starting from scratch with multiverse 1.7.2 and permissions 3.1.6 and scrapbukkit 103. the server runs flawlessly, maps work fine until i make one in a multiverse imported or created world. No one else seems to : A.) give a damn; or B.) have the same problem, because i cant find any help on the MV thread or the github. by the way there is a mod that generates a map from a picture but u need to edit bukkit.yml to use a different map gen i was wondering how else u can utilize the bukkit.yml http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/misc-bananaimagetomap-v2-turn-any-image-into-a-world-928.22623/ EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
So far the only time you need to edit your bukkit.yml is when you use a plugin that changes world generation, like the mod you posted above.
