RedStoneSpread

RedstoneSpread is a lightweight builder's utility plugin for Bukkit servers (1.16+). It allows players to generate organic, branching patterns of blocks. It is perfect for creating natural redstone lines, blood veins, creeping vines, corruption, or ore veins that adapt to the terrain.

🎮 Commands

Main Command

The plugin revolves around a single, powerful command:

/spread <Material> <Amount> [Physics] [Cleanup] [SplitChance] [MultiStart]

Parameters Explained

Argument	Type	Required?	Description
Material	Text	Yes	The block type to place (e.g., REDSTONE, OBSIDIAN, FIRE).
Amount	Integer	Yes	The maximum number of blocks to place.
Physics	true/false	No	Default: true. Updates block connections (e.g., redstone connecting) or gravity (sand falling).
Cleanup	true/false	No	Default: false. If true (and using Redstone), it removes single unconnected dots at the end.
SplitChance	0.0 - 1.0	No	Default: 0.1. Controls the shape of the spread (see below).
MultiStart	true/false	No	Default: false. If true, the spread forces 4 starting branches instead of 1.

🎨 Shaping Your Spread (SplitChance)

The [SplitChance] argument is the most important setting for determining how the structure looks. It determines how often a line divides into two.

• 0.0 (The Snake): The line will never branch. It creates a single, long, wandering path. Good for long wires or distinct trails.
• 0.1 - 0.3 (The Vine): Occasional branching. Looks like natural vines or cracks in a wall.
• 0.5 (The Tree): Balanced branching. Looks like a lightning bolt or tree roots.
• 0.9 - 1.0 (The Cluster): Constant branching. Creates a dense blob or explosion pattern.

🛠 Examples

1. Standard Redstone Line:

Places 64 redstone dust, allowing them to connect, and removing "dot" glitches.

/spread REDSTONE 64 true true 0.1

2. Creeping Corruption (Obsidian):

Creates a dense cluster of Obsidian (100 blocks) that looks like it is spreading out from the center.

/spread OBSIDIAN 100 true false 0.8 true

3. Single Long Path (Gold Block):

Creates a long snake of gold blocks (200 blocks long) that climbs up and down terrain without branching.

/spread GOLD_BLOCK 200 false false 0.0
