AllYourBlocks / ChunkWars

Chunk Wars is a team-based attack-defend minigame for Minecraft. You play in an arena of different Chunks, all carefully handcrafted to replicate different Minecraft biomes and structures as closely as possible. Along with your team you will face everything that vanilla Minecraft can throw at you. Your goal is to be the last team standing.

Swap an Oak Tree for a Birch Tree on the Home Chunk #162

Closed AllYourBlocks closed 1 year ago

AllYourBlocks commented 1 year ago

Need to make this change for vanilla-completeness, as I am removing the Flower Forest, along with the Birch Trees there.

Although Minecraft claims not to generate Birch Trees in Sunflower Plains (Home Chunk), I consistently see them generating in Plains and Sunflower Plains biomes, up to at least 1.19. I should check 1.20 for this too.

Reverted the 'outer tree' to Birch in Museum, dev area, and saved to structure file too.

After further investigation, I have (so far) not seen Birch Trees generating in Sunflower Plains biomes. I've checked 3 randomly generated 1.20.1 worlds, and the edges of 5 Sunflower Plains biomes across each of them.

Previously I saw them generated near the edges of Sunflower Plains where they met a biome that did generate Birch Trees naturally (often a Forest or Flower Forest).

I suspect this was an unintended bug in Minecraft's terrain generation process, where one biome was being overwritten by another after the physical terrain had been generated.

I am now seeing Birch Trees generating correctly just inside the biome of the Forest (1 block outside Sunflower Plains), but none of the previous bugged generation examples yet.

I am seeing consistent examples of Birch Trees generating (at ground level) inside a Forest, but with other portions of the trunk and leaves being in a Sunflower Plains. I think this is expected behaviour, as a result of the 3D biomes changes.

For now (and without a suitable solution) I intend to leave a Birch Tree on the Home Chunk inside the Sunflower Plains for vanilla-completeness.

I will look for opportunities to find a vanilla-consistent location for a Birch Tree elsewhere in the arena in future.

I have completed this change, but want to keep an eye on other places to potentially include a Birch Tree in future.
