Moontreehiddenaxe

Based on game build 714014 | Last updated: 2026-03-02

Overview​

moontreehiddenaxe.lua is a static layout file used in the world generation system. It specifies a pre-defined, rectangular 2x2 tile area containing background tiles and a set of placed objects—including three moon_tree_normal, three moon_tree_tall, one moon_tree_short, and one moonglassaxe. These layouts are embedded into the game’s map generation pipeline (e.g., via static_layouts tasksets) to create consistent environmental features in specific map contexts, such as Moon Biome zones.

This file is not an Entity Component System (ECS) component; rather, it is a JSON-like table structure consumed by DST’s tilemap loader. It instructs the game engine where to instantiate specific prefabs and render background tiles during world initialization.

Usage example​

This file is not used directly by modders at runtime. Instead, it is referenced implicitly via map generation logic. A typical usage in the game’s codebase would be:

-- Inside a static layout taskset or room generator
local layout = require("map/static_layouts/moontreehiddenaxe")
-- The layout table is passed to the world generator to spawn prefabs and tiles at defined relative coordinates

No direct component instantiation or method calls are required or possible for this file.
