Minecraft:Modified Badlands Plateau: Difference between revisions

Template:Unobtainable Template:Removed feature Template:Infobox biome The modified badlands plateau or mesa plateau mutated is a rare variant of the Minecraft:badlands plateau that no longer generates since Minecraft:Caves & Cliffs: Part II, and was removed in Java Edition.

Description

Old

The modified badlands plateau featured smaller plateaus and somewhat harsher terrain than the badlands plateau, mimicking large plateaus that have weathered more over time. Because of the more variable elevation of the plateaus, more colors of stained terracotta were exposed. Minecraft:Eroded badlands replaced the usual thin desert border that this biome variant shared with other biomes, while Minecraft:beaches separated them from oceans.

The modified badlands plateau was the second rarest biome in Minecraft, after the modified jungle edge, and was only present in about 1/5 of the badlands biomes, and almost always came with an eroded badlands bordering the edges and modified wooded badlands plateaus surrounding it at the center.

Current

Template:IN, modified badlands plateaus in older worlds still received updates. When generated through Minecraft:single biome or Minecraft:behavior packs, they can also generate new blocks.

They appear similar to Minecraft:badlands. Minecraft:Armadillos can spawn, and farm Minecraft:animals use their warm variants, but can only spawn on player-created Minecraft:grass blocks. Minecraft:Short dry grass and Minecraft:tall dry grass generates in patches between the dead bushes, and some cacti have Minecraft:cactus flowers.

With Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals, modified badlands plateaus have unique atmospherics, the sky is tinted turquoise-green at daytime and much brighter during the night, while the daytime horizon is tinted brown. Moonlight is more vibrant blue, and the warm color grading tints the environment more yellow, although color saturation is slightly lower.

Mobs

Modified badlands plateaus use the same mob spawning chances as badlands.

The following mobs naturally spawn here:
