Changes

Mobs

Dolphins

  • Now pick the closest structure more accurately, regardless of structure type.

World generation

Bastion remnant

  • Bounding boxes are now slightly more accurate to the shape of the structure.

Command format

/locate

  • Now support tags, using # prefix to distinguish from normal IDs.
  • The parameter is now a configured structure rather than a structure type.
    • For instance, it is now possible to use /locate village_desert or /locate shipwreck_beached.
  • The old usage for structure categories is now done via tags.

/locatebiome

  • Now support tags, using # prefix to distinguish from normal IDs.
    • For instance, it is now possibile to use /locatebiome #minecraft:has_structure/igloo.

General

Data packs

  • Increased data pack version from 8 to 9.
  • It is now possible to add custom structures in experimental datapacks: the game now generates and stores data-driven configured structures.
    • Experimental datapacks can add new structure sets.
    • The feature field in location predicates now references a configured feature.
    • The exploration_map loot table function destination field is now a configured feature tag id.
    • The exploration_map loot table function no longer automatically sets the display name of the map.
  • A lot of the cave generation is now configurable through data packs.
    • A new registry was added for Density functions (caves are created by combining those together).
    • Noise settings got a new field noise_router (and lost a couple of flags), see worldgen/noise_settings folder in the worldgen report.
    • Noise router wires data-driven parts of the cave generation with the rest of the code.

General

  • Added a warning for users running Minecraft in a 32-bit environment in the main menu, because support for the 32-bit environment will end soon.
