Cubic Chunks Compatibility Helper Mod

A mod that tweaks other mods to make them what I call "properly compatible" with Cubic Chunks 1.12.2 - so they not only work without crashing, but work as one might reasonably expect in a Cubic Chunks world. For example, this mod makes the Actually Additions Miner mine through y=0, down to a (to be) configurable depth relative to the miner. And it modifies Worley's Caves to continue generating below y=0, if a cubic world generator is used (e.g. Cubic World Generator). This mod is in a pretty early state, and while the features I've implemented should be fairly well-tested, they are not always complete, or fully configurable.

Setting up this mod in Dev (INCOMPLETE)

This guide is written for Intellij IDEA, as that is what I use (Community Edition version 2021.2.1, to be exact); if someone could provide equivalent steps for Eclipse or other IDEs, that would be appreciated.

To set this mod up, you should just need to download/clone the repo, then import the repo's folder into IntelliJ. and config a couple things in Intellij. E.g.:

  1. Download the .zip from GitHub
  2. Extract the .zip, and rename the resultant folder whatever you want
  3. Open up IntelliJ and tell it to open the folder as a project
  4. Wait for Intellij to finish setting up.
  5. Run the genIntellijRuns task (gradle tab, under Tasks/forgegradleruns)
  6. Set Intellij to use IntellijIDEA for runs a. Gradle tab, Build Tool Settings (wrench icon) b. Gradle Settings c. Build and run using "Intellij IDEA" d. Run tests using "Intellij IDEA"
  7. Set the project's output directory to /out/ a. File>Project Structure b. Project compiler output: Path to your mod's folder, plus "\out" * Should be the full, qualified path, as it would appear in Windows Explorer (or your OS's file explorer) * E.g. "D:\Documents\TestMod\out" * You may need to explicitly create the "out" folder. * Project compiler output is under Project Settings>Project c. Potentially restart your IDE.
  8. Add the CubicChunks dev-all jar to the run/mods directory
  9. For each extra mod in the main dependency string (in the @Mod annotation on the main mod class, Mod_CubicChunksCompatabilityHelper)
    1. Obtain a copy of that mod (preferably the same version specified in the lower bound of the version range for that mod)
    2. Place a deobfuscated copy of the mod in the lib/ folder.
      • If a mod does not have a deobfuscated version available, you can use Bearded-Octo-Nemesis 2 (BON2, available at https://github.com/Valiec/BON2)
      • From what I recall, you will need to clone the repo and build it (via the command gradle build, I think?), then use the build/libs/BON-2.4.0.CUSTOM-all.jar for deobfuscating mods.
    3. Place the original copy of the mod in the runs/mods/ folder.
      • This is not required unless the mod (otherMod) is required in the dependency string; this is mostly if you want to see how this mod (compatMod) operates with the otherMod in its runtime environment.
