World

The settings on this page can be configured in config/skyblockbuilder/world.json5.

Island Distance

Specifies the distance between two islands.

Offset

Determines the offset from coordinates (0, 0, 0) for island generation. This can be utilized to generate islands centrally within .mca files, or moving the island up/down. The value in the middle is you height, one and three is for x and z direction.

Sea Height

Sets the sea level in the world. Note that this does not affect the water height within the world but does influence spawn heights for entities like squids.

Biomes

This is a map that provides ResourceLists.

info

Each dimension must have at least one valid biome! If not, your setting will completely be ignored.

You can find a complete list of all possible biomes in config/skyblockbuilder/data/biomes.txt.

warning

Some structures require specific biomes to generate (e.g., Mansions require Dark Oak Forest). These structures will not be generated if you do not have these biomes.

Carvers

This is a map that provides ResourceLists.

To learn more about carvers, take a look at the Minecraft wiki.

You can find a complete list of all possible carvers in config/skyblockbuilder/data/carvers.txt.

Prevent Falling Blocks

Use this feature to stop blocks like gravel or sand from falling when generating the island. To specify which blocks should be prevented from falling, use the block tag skyblockbuilder:prevent_scheduled_tick. By default, this tag includes falling blocks such as sand, gravel, concrete powder, anvils, pointed dripstone, and the dragon egg.

Teleport to the Overworld

Enable this option if the overworld is unchanged, and there is no defined spawn point. When enabled, players will be teleported to the overworld's world spawn instead of the default spawn point.

Surface

Configures the block settings for generating surfaces across different dimensions. Each dimension can have its own surface configuration, specified as a list of layers. For a completely void space, use an empty array []. If you want, you could also use the same format as the flat world generation settings without the biome configuration. If surface generation is disabled, these settings are ignored.

info

Each layer can have the following properties:

• block: (Required) The block to use for this layer (e.g., "minecraft:stone")
• height: (Optional) The height of the layer in blocks. Defaults to 1 if not specified
• extras: (Optional) Special configuration for random block placement
  • blocks: List of blocks that can randomly replace the layer's main block
    • block: The block to potentially place
    • weight: (Optional) Relative weight for random selection. Defaults to 1
  • chance: Probability (0.0 to 1.0) of replacing the main block with one from the extras

Surface Configuration

"surfaceSettings": {
  "minecraft:overworld": [
    {
      "block": "minecraft:bedrock"
    },
    {
      "block": "minecraft:blackstone",
      "height": 63
    },
    {
      "block": "minecraft:stone",
      "height": 5,
      "extras": {
        "blocks": [
          {
            "block": "minecraft:diamond_block",
            "weight": 9
          },
          {
            "block": "minecraft:cobblestone"
          }
        ],
        "chance": 0.01
      }
    }
  ],
  "minecraft:the_nether": [],
  "minecraft:the_end": []
}

In this example:

1. The overworld has three layers:
   • A single layer of bedrock at the bottom
   • 63 blocks of blackstone in the middle
   • 5 blocks of stone at the top, with a 1% chance per block to be replaced with either diamond blocks (90% of replacements) or cobblestone (10% of replacements)
2. Both the Nether and End dimensions are configured as void spaces with empty arrays

The total height of all layers in a dimension cannot exceed 384 blocks.
