This module adds an custom world generator which contains an alternate dimension on top of the features found in the default Perlin generator.


Upon spawning in the Overworld, you'll receive a Resurrection Idol in your inventory. But how do you enter the Inferno?

Well... first... you have to die. While you would normally enter the ethereal dimension after dying, the Resurrection Idol, forged by the ancient tribes of Terasology, allows you to remain in your corporeal form even as you enter the Inferno, giving you one chance to explore the dimension!

(Ideally, you would also want to die by natural means such as fall damage with the console closed so that you'll see the message when you enter. Also, remember to turn up the volume so you can hear the portal entering sound effects and Inferno ambience sounds!)

World blocks:

  • Bloodied Stone
  • Bloodied Dirt
  • Infernal Brick

Flora:

Infused with the pain of souls sent here, these flora give out light, peppering the surface like stars in the night sky.

  • Flaming Flower
  • Dead Branch
  • Devil's Shroom

Features:

  • Lava Huts: Reminscent of a bygone age, these dilapidated huts used to be belong to souls who were trapped in the Inferno

(Spawns at various heights and sizes, with blocks randomly placed to mimic dilapidation)

  • Infernal Trees: These trees shine brightly, guiding the dead in their journey through the Inferno

The Fire Leaves found on these trees make excellent light sources.

(These trees have varying heights, as determined by white noise)

  • Lava Falls: The source of all this lava is unknown

  • Caves (This is a version of the Core caves plugin modified to work with this dimension)

  • Lava Oceans

Future expansion:

  • More sophisticated tree generation
  • A way to obtain the Resurrection Idol in the Overworld
  • Valuable resources in Inferno to incentivise players to enter
  • A special 'quest' or item that needs to be obtained to return to the Overworld
  • Lava flow (coming soon!)
