Pikmin's area generator files can be found in /dataDir/stages/*/*.gen.

Types of files

  • Plant.gen - Plant placements.
  • init.gen - Enemies that spawn when you FIRST load the stage (so modding it and revisiting that modded stage doesn't do anything).
  • default.gen - Seems to have placements of immobile objects (geysers, candypop buds, geysers).
  • day*.gen - Unknown[unsure].

Each enemy spawn has iket, which is the internal name "teki" but reserved once compiled in the middle of the entry.

You will notice eno1 which shows some parameters, but have been cutoff in the image. The parameter list goes:

  • b00. which is '62 30 30 04' in hex (respawn in 00 00 00 XX days)
  • b01. which is '62 30 31 04' in hex (not sure)
  • p00. which is '70 30 30 04' in hex (not sure)
  • p01. which is '70 30 31 04' in hex (facing angle in integers)
