Disable "Spreading" Crimson/Corruption" at start, is there any mod? No ingame solutions please x)
Hello, loving the game so far, but i would like ot remove the "spreading" from corruption,
i want to keep the corrupt/crimson biome as they are, i just don t want them to expand.
I spent a lot of time looking for that on google, so far i ve only found time consuming and tedious solutions like :
- Dig 5 Blocks around corruption to stop the spreading
- Use Ingames items like Cleantaminator and others
- Use an app called Tshock (downloaded it but it seems about servers option and i play offline)

I wish there would either a mod, a console command or simply a trainer to stop the Spreading at the world creation, ever heard about that?

Thanks.

The spread of the corruption/crimson in pre-hardmode is so slow and weak that you really don't need this. In fact, it can be completely stopped by a single sunflower at the edge of the biome.

It gets more complicated by hardmode, though. You'll want to quarantine the areas with those 5 block-wide hellevators.

Thanks for your answer.

Thanks for your answer.

Well, to be completely honest with you, once hardmode hits, you're still going to get a strip of hallow and corruption/crimson cutting through the entire world anyway. Plus there's the fact that each demon alter smashed (which you need to do in order to get hardmode ores) comes with a 50% chance to corrupt/hallow a single, random block somewhere in your world.

But on the other hand, you do need underground and surface hallow and corrupt/crimson to make quite a few items in the game, including stuff that I personally use into endgame.

The best I can suggest is to isolate what already exists, isolate your home base, isolate the jungle, and hope for the best. It is time consuming, but if the RNG doesn't decide to drop corruption/crimson in the jungle and/or your home base, you'll be much better off for the rest of the game, and your world can act very much as your main world.

What I did is I islated the bioms then Kill the WoF then when you break one alter at a time the islate the boim that spawns so don't break them to fast

Yup i heard about the Strip of hallow corruption and crimson over the world appearing once you enter hardmode, i don t mind at all since i need thos biom to craft late game item, i just don t want them to spread overtime. Yes i like taking my time.

Judging by your answers, this thread is taking the exact same direction as all the others i have seen about the subject so let s make it clear.

Is there any mods, console command, trainer, file modification i can do to solve my problem, yes or no?

oh and I don't think it spawns one block cause when I broke one it made a boim in one place and in the cloud island above and caves that are unreachable below

I was only Joking. Really, i dont know. If you dont want corrupt to spread but you want to keep em, build an anticorrupt wall in the place where a normal biome and corrupt biome will meet. (Anti corrupt wall means a big wall, and on the top of the wall, in space, doors)

And remember, corrupt will still doesnt stop spreading if wall will stand on grass. there must be some wood or some blocks that cannot be corrupted.
