Open the file for the skycastle and at the top there is a "weight" option, make that a higher number. Also, remove the uniquemindistance line. That should do it.
Also, if you find a spot where you want the castle to be, go to that spot and type /testruin skycastleexactfilename

Ruins spawn in the world with initial terrain generation. Chunks that have already been explored won't have anything new added to them.
Check in /mods/resources/ruins/generic and tell me how many files are in there. If there are no files in this folder, then nothing will spawn.

If you want the sky castle to spawn, put it in /generic, that is the main active folder for structures that spawn anywhere in the world. If you want it to show up in a specific biome, then put it in that biome folder.

Start a creative world and type in this command:
/testruin tester
One of 4 things will happen:
= "Unknown command" - ruins is not installed
= "Do not have permission" - installed, but needs creative mode to test further
= "filepath does not exist" - the structure templates are not in the expected place
= Blocks spawn where you are standing - Success!
If it's the third one, the file structure must also be installed. It is /mods/resources/ruins and inside is a list of biome folders. The /generic" folder is the main active folder and usually contains a lot of templates.
This file structure can most easily be found in instances of minecraft running modpacks containing ruins.

I'm using Ruins to spawn my custom facilities and civilizations in a heavily modded singleplay. It cuts out a lot of the grindy aspects of construction (like digging through solid rock) for a much better focus on design

Ok, Now I can have A sky Castle

Ok, so I tested this several times, and I think Humans rarely attack monsters besides wasps, and other bugs. They leave Creepers alone, and I think Zombies also. However, I do hear the occasional explosion, and rotten flesh on the ground, but sometimes they just skip them. I really want the humans to be the serial killers I know :3.
P.S. I think it would be cool if the humans only spawned during the day, and "sleep" at night. And maybe this is too ridiculous, but maybe the uncommon hut or house with some humans inside. Great mod so far though :).

Addition on the fly farm, could you shift+right click to "grab" flies, and turn them into an item, or right click with a new cage item to "put" the fly in it. Then you can carry around a snack for later. You can right click the ground to place the fly or fly in cage.
Just a thought

SUGGESTION TIME:
FLY FARM: Wouldn't it be cool to use rotten flesh to lure flies, and then maybe flowers to breed.
Ender reputation: use something like a... soul? as a gift. or something that may appeal to them.
Bug reputation: since the vanilla spiders were once considered part of the "Evil Queen" and their pretty much just wild spiders. Plus the wasps and beetles so they are not like kill on sight.
Leaders: Probably won't happen, but maybe a leader for each species. If you assassinate the leader of a group, it is automatic war, and will try to kill you at all cost.
A GUI for reps: Would really help who likes you or hates you.
That's all I have got for now. Thanks for reading!
EDIT:
Witch rep: give them spider eyes, or if it is only human stuff, a new item called human eye.
I do get that none may be implemented, or all be implemented, so I won't get mad if (insert un-added suggestion) was not added
