Minecraft:Density function: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:10, 26 August 2026

Template:Exclusive Density functions make up mathematical expressions to obtain a number from a position, stored as Minecraft:JSON files within a Minecraft:data pack in the path data/<namespace>/worldgen/density_function. They are referenced from the Minecraft:noise router in Minecraft:noise settings.
