How to stop BoP floating islands

[Cosmology27]

Is there a way to stop the floating islands from BiomesOPlenty? I really don't like them, haha. I've checked all the BoP config, I don't see it.
Thanks for the help!

Do you mean the green and blue ones with the slimed on? That's from TiC.

ok, is there a way to stop the TiC floating islands?

The tinkers config has this in the worldgen section:

I:"Slime Island Rarity"=450

I suggest using google to find out how to change the value to affect the spawn rate. You can't unfortunately disable it unless you remove the mod.

Trial and error would probably do it.
try 0, 1 and 50,000 then see what the results are.
(0 might turn it off)

Edit
chance is 1/# to generate in a chunk- bigger numbers means its less likely.
change it to 999999999999999999999999999999 and you'll be sorted.

Great thanks for the help!
I NEVER would have thought it was from TiC... why in the world would TiC have floating slime islands? haha.
Thanks again

Because tinkers uses slime for some fairly decent tool parts.

Apparently slime was hard to come by​

The trees are an excellent source of slime balls as well.

Use the force, read the source ;-)

Thankfully TiC is open source:

    @Override
    public void generate (Random random, int chunkX, int chunkZ, World world, IChunkProvider chunkGenerator, IChunkProvider chunkProvider) //IWorldGenerator version
    {
        if (DimensionBlacklist.isDimInBlacklist(world.provider.dimensionId))
        {
            if (random.nextInt(PHConstruct.islandRarity) == 0)
                generateIsland(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);
        }
    }

if nextInt is passed a zero, it'll throw an exception.

But the configuration source defaults islandRarity to 1450, and glancing through the minecraftforge Configuration.java class I don't think it's going to protect you when it's set to 0.

Make the number large but not too large. It'll use too many cycles.
