Configuration
You can edit the configuration in Settings > Mod Options > ProceduralStages
. All configurations can be adjusted at any time, even in the middle of a run. In multiplayer, the host's configuration is used.
Category | Name | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Configuration | Infinite map scaling | Disabled | If enabled, the stage size scaling will not be reset every loop. Exercise caution when utilizing this feature, as it may lead to increased map generation time and a decrease in framerate. |
Performance | Occlusion culling frame delay | 6 | The number of frames between each occlusion culling check impacts performance. A shorter delay decreases FPS, while a longer delay causes decorations to flicker more when moving quickly. The game operates at 60 frames per second. Any changes to this configuration will take effect at the start of the next stage. |
Themes | <Theme> spawn rate |
See table below | Specifies the percentage of stages that will be generated with the <theme> theme. |
All Stages | <Terrain type> map spawn rate |
Varied | Sets the overall percentage of stages that will feature the <Terrain type> terrain type. Adjusting this value will automatically update the spawn rates for this terrain type in each individual stage. |
Stage [1,5] |
<Terrain type> map spawn rate |
See table below | Specifies the percentage of maps that will be generated with the <Terrain type> for stage 1. If the total percentage for stage X is less than 15% , normal stages may also spawn. If the total percentage for stage X is 0%, only normal stages will spawn. |
Moon | Lunar Fields map spawn rate | 100% | Indicates the percentage of final stages featuring the custom "Lunar Fields" terrain type instead of the vanilla moon stage. If this percentage is less than 100%, the normal moon stage will also appear. If the total percentage is 0%, only the normal moon stage will be generated. |
Moon | Required pillars | 4 | Number of pillars necessary to access the Mithrix arena |
Debug | Stage seed | Specifies the stage seed. If left blank, a random seed will be used. |
Themes
Theme | Default spawn rate |
---|---|
Desert | 18 % |
Snow | 18 % |
Void | 18 % |
Plains | 18 % |
Mushroom | 18 % |
Legacy Random | 10 % |
Terrain types
Here are the default spawn rates for all terrain types:
Stage | Open Caves | Tunnel Caves | Lonely Island | Twisted Canyons | Basalt Isle | Temple | Block maze |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Stage 1 | 5% | 5% | 25% | 10% | 25% | 25% | 5% |
Stage 2 | 25% | 25% | 5% | 10% | 5% | 5% | 25% |
Stage 3 | 10% | 10% | 15% | 25% | 10% | 15% | 15% |
Stage 4 | 15% | 5% | 20% | 10% | 10% | 20% | 20% |
Stage 5 | 15% | 25% | 5% | 20% | 25% | 5% | 5% |
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with the stage not loading or not loading properly, try creating a new, fresh profile with the same mods. This solution has resolved the issue for multiple users.
Alternatively, you can create a new profile with only procedural stages installed and then add your other mods one by one. This method can help identify any compatibility issues.
Report an issue
If you encounter any issues, feel free to reach out to me on Discord (@Lawlzee) or create a GitHub issue. Please include your log file; it is really useful for troubleshooting.
