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

Types of files[edit]

  • plants.gen - Plant placements.
  • init.gen - Placements for breakable gates, pushable boxes, bridges, ship parts, bosses, enemies with ship parts and enemies which don't reappear.
  • default.gen - Placements for onions, SS Dolphin, bomb and grass generators, enemies that re-appear daily and all Challenge Mode objects besides plants.
  • (day number).gen - The number represents the day(s) the generator will take effect in.

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