Subworld Library

Description
An API for modders to easily add dimensions (referred to as subworlds) to their mods, making all the necessary code injections, handling Multiplayer and managing every subworld.

HOW IT WORKS
Subworld Library does a LOT of code injection, as Terraria was not made with subworlds in mind.
Subworlds are highly customisable; from how big or small they are, to what ModSystems can update inside of them and even how they are lit.
Subworld Library removes Space, both Oceans and the Underworld from subworlds, allowing them to be extremely small without issues.

LOADING
Loading a subworld is straightforward. Loading screens can be as simple as text on a plain background, or something complex, like an item selection menu.

SAVING
Subworlds save to a directory named after the main world. A subworld and/or changes to players inside it can be temporary. Deleting a world deletes all of its subworlds as well.

MULTIPLAYER
Subworld Library works in Multiplayer with little to no extra work required from modders. A "subserver" is opened for every subworld being occupied.

Likely an issue with a different mod, which ones are you using?

Multiplayer bugs out like crazy, when with friends it begins counting all players as 1 person, thus causing no damage to be taken

Does anyone know of mod that uses this that allows temporary worlds for mining and loot exploration? I'm starting a server that could have many people, and want a way for them to be able to mine and explore without exhausting the resources in the main world.

Fixed in the latest patch!

hello, i have a issue in regards to a crash i encountered during my starlight river+stars above playthrough. i had went back and forth about it in between mods and they suspect it to be a compatibility issue between subworld and starlight river. i have the crash log with me if you want it just dont know where to put it

The backgrounds and NPC spawns are hardcoded but you can override them.

The subworlds I make still have space and the oceans. I analyzed the code of subworlds from existing mods and found no mention of them even though they're often 100% one biome. The "hideUnderworld" option is easy to find but I see nothing that removes space. What am I doing wrong? Is this a problem with the library?

Sounds like a mod conflict, send a log and I'll try to forward it to the right people!
