So this has gone a bit beyond "bad luck" for my taste. Our server has the generation set to biomes o plenty and for some reason it seems that something has gone wrong and stopped Natura's redwoods from spawning anywhere. I've traveled anywhere from 10-30k blocks in every direction and come upon every biome at least 8 times. As you might have guessed I had our owner make sure redwoods were enabled in the natura config and they were with the default rarity. I also checked to make sure every other generated object from natura generates and they all do.This is a really a pinch for me as I'm set on making a redwood treehouse and the Sakura sapling bug seems to be fixed in the 1.1.6 Unleashed version of Natura.

Any ideas what the problem could be?
 
Superbad luck maybe?

They have always been fairly rare on maps I've created but I can not think of anything off hand that would stop them from being created if you are srure the configs are done correctly. Only thing that might come to mind is if the map was created frist without that option on and then later it was added. But even then you would just need to go make new chunks somewhere.
 
Yeah. Horrible luck I'd say. I haven't seen any in a while in my current 1.6 world. In a 1.5 world I had a field with 3 of them. 2 were only 20 blocks apart at the base and it was quite lovely
 
Well we decided it easiest to just spawn some in cause F' you map generation. Now I'll just make a forest of them to spite map generation.
 
The problem with redwoods is, that they only spawn in 2 specific biomes(see here)
  • Plains
  • Meadows
This means especially with Biome mods that your chance of getting one is even lower than before as those biomes are a lot rarer than in vanilla.

And that's halfed with BoP since it removes Meadows generation. Brilliant.

Huh. I thought that meadow was a vanilla biome...

Awful luck it seems. Was lucky enough to spawn right next to one on the seed I'm using atm, but in all the area that I explored, I only found around 5. Probably easiest to just cheat in a stack of saplings, or if you do find one use a dartcraft force mitts on the leaves and get tons of saplings to use elsewhere.
Little trick: if you plant a tree and it doesn't spawn exactly like you want it(shape etc), they are rather easily gotten rid of with a wrath igniter :P
