Template:For Template:In development Template:Planned Template:Wip Template:Infobox biome Ice caves are Minecraft:cave biomes composed of Minecraft:packed ice, Minecraft:snow, and Minecraft:calcite. Minecraft:Strays and Minecraft:frostbites spawn here, and they are the only place where Minecraft:icicles and Minecraft:ice crystals naturally generate.
Generation
Ice caves generate as Minecraft:cave biomes below snowy biomes such as Minecraft:snowy plains, Minecraft:snowy taigas, and frozen oceans at high Minecraft:weirdness values, and rarely below cold biomes like Minecraft:taigas. This means that they can generate below Minecraft:ice spikes and are always on the other side of rivers from Minecraft:sulfur caves.
When the humidity or continentalness increases, ice caves are replaced by Minecraft:lush caves or Minecraft:dripstone caves.
Ice caves can generate on the surface at weirdness values above 1.25, but this is extremely rare. They may also leak out of cave openings or ravines.
Description
The walls of ice caves consist of Minecraft:packed ice with some Minecraft:calcite blobs. The floor is covered with patches of Minecraft:snow and Minecraft:ice crystals, and Minecraft:icicles hang on the ceiling.
Blobs of stone and deepslate generate throughout the packed ice. This allows Minecraft:ores and other stone variants like Minecraft:diorite and Minecraft:andesite to generate. Minecraft:Glow lichen, Minecraft:dirt, and Minecraft:granite does not generate, unlike any other biome.
Minecraft:Water exposed to the sky freezes to Minecraft:ice, but in underground caves, the water from Minecraft:aquifers remains fluid. The light from Minecraft:lava lakes and ice crystals can sometimes cause icicles to fall down and damage mobs. Ice caves are a dry biome with no Minecraft:snowfall, but existing snow does not melt.
Minecraft:Frostbites and Minecraft:strays spawn in ice caves, as well as common monsters and Minecraft:glow squid in aquifers.
Like other cave biomes, Minecraft:woodland mansions may generate in ice caves, but this is nearly impossible.Template:Only
Ice caves use the same graphical settings as Minecraft:ice spikes with with Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals. Atmospherics are gray, both at horizon and zenith, and there are barely any color changes during sunset and sunrise. Sunlight is half as bright, and tinted pale blue during the entire day. Volumetric fog effects increase these effects, and the biome has the coldest color grading temperature of all biomes.
Fog in Fancy graphics is dark blue, and the water color is slightly darker.
