That's pretty much done, you could add things like mountains though, take a look at the code if we're using my one.

Your code doesn't make any sense.

The results don't show that.

To me, the scrolling doesn't even work.

EDIT: I just tried alpha 2. I still don't get how it works though, so no adding mountains. But I still want to help with world generation.

Press a or d, it's slow in non-turbo mode as it redraws everything.

I edited the post. I still don't get how it works, so no mountains. I still want to do world generation.

If you can't work out how it works then how are you going to do anything as complicated as world generation?

There's 2 parts, the listgen, and the list reader. The list contains values for the WHOLE map, then the reader will generate based on a small area of this list. The map gen just writes to the list.

I know how to do world generation, but I don't understand your scrolling. So I think there should be no scrolling.

Basically, this is how it works:

It clears the list first off.
It waits for you to put in the map size.
It has a variable to determine how many blocks it should miss for a sky and surface.
It sets 0 for every sky bit.
It creates a number for grass, then dirt, then rock, whilst doing the rock layer it has a chance to put in some numbers for things like ores.
It repeats on a new list item for the map size variable, by the time it's finished it should have the same amount of items in the list as the map size.

Nothing should be on the screen at this point, nothing should've been stamped.

Now we have the list generated we can start with the stamper. This reads from the list then stamps according to the number it is on.
It starts on the variable "player x", then it subtracts a certain number from that and starts to generate from that number in the list.
It sets the costume to the number in the current item in the list and stamps, it then moves down.
Each item in the list is a column, each number is a block, this makes it easy to use.

Once you press a or d it will add or subtract 1 from Player X then regenerate the land to change it.

Does SJRCS11_010 even come on anymore?

I'll try to have the test world up tommorow so everyone can start working

Can i help with sprites?

Are we changing the textures of blocks?

By the way, first off we should start on trying to find out which block the mouse is over in the world's save list, this is the only thing we need to work out, I have a list of the order of things we should do, you all need dropbox.

Ok, writing to memory has been done, I just need someone to fix the accuracy of where it saves, right now it's a few blocks out.

After that's fixed we can start on creative mode.

ok

I'll join as a terrain programmer, I understand Liru's project unlike maxdoss.

@Liru: I looked through your project, and I can't see your save list in any of your sprites
