Please help me with the world gen limit.
My world is supposed to load till -31000 but it loads only till -30912.
Please tell me how to fix that and also how to disable the caves and caverns below -30900.
And please add blueberry bush stems and more corals to the game

  1. The limit of ± 31000 is not accurate. It may vary by a few mapblocks, depending on how the map generator is configured to avoid over-/underflows in the calculations.
  2. Disable the caverns upon world creation. There's a checkbox for it.
  3. Use mods to extend Minetest Game, as new items are unlikely to be added anytime soon. See MTG was officially moved to a 'bugfixes, maintenance only' mode! #2710 for details.
  4. Please do not open one issue for various requests or questions. I assume this is answered now, hence closing.

I have tried that disabling caverns too but still, my world generates till -30912 only.

So should I try changing the init for this.

You cannot extend this limit. Minetest stops generating chunks (generally 5*5*5 mapblocks) when they are too close to the technical limit (+32767 or -32768) to avoid miscalculations. If you desperately need some more mapblocks, you could try a recent Minetest 5.6.0-dev build which extends this limit by a few mapblocks.

I tried but still result is the same. I remember my Avast antivirus took out a file of minetest 5.6.0 saying it was infectious. It was having a name like ziplib.

Or please could you tell me how can I limit cavern generation only till -30000. Is there a way to do this

There is no lower limit for caverns or caves in particular. All you could do is to reduce the world limit to -30000 which then might just fit within 375 times a 5*5*5 chunk. Please open a feature request in https://github.com/minetest/minetest or use a mapgen mod to overwrite the bottom with your desired node. Example mod. https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=9231

This is the wrong issue for that? Please ask such questions on IRC. And yes you can.
