Hey all; wasn't sure which was the correct board for this kind of question so try here.
I have an idea for a FTB server I'd like to run and I need to figure out the best way to generate a large, large biomes, island map that contains a variety of the extra biomes (save marshes 'cause those are bad , yay for config option to disable them). I have a few questions related to this so here they go:
Does extra biomes modify the terrain that's tied to a seed in anyway or does it just paint biomes ontop of it? For example, the seed -577042398 seems to be pretty popular over on reddit right now but of course it's vanilla so when I load it up into FTB, what I see isn't anywhere near what is seen in the screenshots because I spawn in a red rock mountain biome-thing.
If it doesn't mess up the seeds then I'm perfectly content with loading up random seeds in AMIDST until I find one that works. If it does then I'm going to need suggestions on how to create my perfect map.
Second, related-ish question; once I do find my perfect map, can I move the spawn point in, say, MCEdit or will it freak out because of all the mods and if I can't, how can I go about moving the spawn point?
Finally, since I doubt bukkit would play nicely, how can I create an auto refilling 'starter' chest that'll remember who uses it and prevents them from using it again?
