While the plugin did use to include pregen before it felt out of place for me and started crowding my codebase. I decided to move it to a stand alone plugin to simplify the plugin and make it easier for me to manage the different features. So you can pregen with that instead

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/chunker.117744/

The pregen since moved to Chunker has been improved a lot since it was first intergraded into SkyGridx so feel free to give it a try and let me know if you run into any issues :)

I believe only the Void-Biomes-1.21.zip datapack removes the overworld bounding box for strongholds, so in that case, the Eyes of Ender and /locate command won't work. However, if you're using the Void Worldgen datapack, the bounding boxes should still be generated, though it might come with a performance cost due to the extra calculations involved.

If you'd rather not enable bounding boxes, you can manually add the End portal block to your world like any other block "END_PORTAL:0.001". However, do keep in mind that the Ender Eyes and /locate rely on the stronghold structure itself to function, so even with a grid placed portal, these mechanics won't detect it.

Hey,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the plugin. I appreciate your detailed feedback and apologize for the inconvenience you've encountered.

Regarding the issue with spawn chunks not being properly generated, I've identified the cause. On the first boot, if the plugin is started before the datapack has finished processing the spawn chunks, it results in incomplete generation. I'm actively working on a solution to rectify this. In the meantime, here's a workaround:

After the initial server boot, you may notice server overload due to the datapack processing chunks for the nether, end, and overworld simultaneously without any limiters. Allow the datapack to process these chunks, I suggest waiting for about 1-2 minutes after the first server boot, then restarting the server. This should ensure the initial chunks are processed by the datapack. Once done, reboot the server, and you can then initiate the skygrid generation using '/sgon,' and it should correctly generate the spawn chunks.

Alternatively, you can navigate to the skygrid folder and delete 'world_generated_chunks.txt,' 'world_nether_generated_chunks.txt,' and 'world_the_end_generated_chunks.txt.' This action will trigger a fresh grid generation, which should resolve the issues caused by the datapack.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. Now that I am on break from college, I should have more time to focus on fixing the issues. If you encounter any further issues or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out, especially if you have any console bugs related to the plugin or conflicts with other plugins.

Best regards,
David

Hey,

Thanks for your feedback on the plugin. Sorry to hear about the hiccups you encountered.

To dig into this, could you shoot over a list of the other plugins you're running, server settings, specs, and any screenshots of those errors? This will help me investigate the problem and improve the plugin's performance.

Cheers,
David
