Minecraft:Carver definition

Template:Exclusive Configured carvers are used to add Minecraft:caves and Minecraft:canyons. They are referenced in biomes.

Definition

Configured carvers can be defined in Minecraft:data packs, as part of the directory structure below.

JSON format

• Template:Nbt: The root object.
  • Template:Nbt: The ID of carver type; see below.
  • Template:Nbt: Configuration values for the carver.
    • Template:Nbt: The probability that each chunk attempts to generate carvers. Value between 0 and 1 (both inclusive).
    • Template:Nbt: The height at which this carver attempts to generate.
      • Template:Nbt inherit/height provider
    • Template:NbtTemplate:Until: The Y-level below or equal to which the carved areas are filled with lava. Doesn't affect Template:Cd (where lava level is always Template:Cd). Note that the carver is also filled with the fluid from Minecraft:aquifers, which always include lava below Template:Cd.
      • Template:Nbt inherit/vertical anchor
    • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Until: Blocks that can be carved. Can be a block ID, a block tag, or a list of block IDs.
    • Template:NbtTemplate:Until: (optional) Replaces blocks in the carved areas for debugging.
      • Template:Nbt: (optional, defauts to false) Enable debug mode for this carver.
      • Template:Nbt: (optional, defaults to acacia button's default state) Replaces air blocks.
        • Template:Nbt inherit/block state
      • Template:Nbt: (optional, defaults to acacia button's default state) Replaces water blocks and then waterlogs these blocks.
        • Template:Nbt inherit/block state
      • Template:Nbt: (optional, defaults to acacia button's default state) Replaces lava blocks.
        • Template:Nbt inherit/block state
      • Template:Nbt: (optional, defaults to acacia button's default state) Replaces barriers of aquifers.
        • Template:Nbt inherit/block state
    • Additional fields based on Template:Nbt; see below.

Carver Type

The carver type determines the shape of the carving.

Template:Cd and Template:Cd

Carves a cave. A cave is a long tunnel that sometimes branches. Sometimes one or more tunnels start from a circular void.

Nether cavesTemplate:Until are similar to caves, but with a less frequency and wider tunnels Template:Verify. Also, Minecraft:aquifer doesn't work: The carved blocks below Template:Cd are filled with lava.

Additional fields:

• • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Until / Template:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: Vertically scales circular voids.
  • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: The number of cave tunnels to create from a seed chunk. The number must not be negative.
    • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
  • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Horizonally scales cave tunnels. Doesn't affect the length of tunnels.
    • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
  • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Vertically scales cave tunnels. Doesn't affect the length of tunnels.
  • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: Multiplier for the vertical radius of the first segment in each tunnel. If not specified, it defaults to 1.0.
    • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
  • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Value between -1.0 and 1.0 (both inclusive). Change the shape of the cave's horizontal floor. If 0.0, carves the terrain with ellipsoids. If 1.0, carves with upper semi-ellipsoids, resulting in a level floor.
  • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: Multiplier for the radius of carved tunnels.
  • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: If Template:Cd, thickness will be multiplied with a 10% chance (e.g. Template:Cd). If not specified, it defaults to Template:Cd.
    • • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider

Template:Cd

Carves a canyon.

Additional fields:

• • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Until: Vertically scales canyons.
    • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
  • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Vertical rotation as a canyon extends.
    • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
  • Template:Nbt: The shape to use for the ravine.
    • Template:NbtTemplate:NbtTemplate:Upcoming: Vertically scales canyons.
    • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Scales the length of canyons. Higher values make canyons longer.
      • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
    • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Scales the breadth and height of canyons.
      • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
    • Template:NbtTemplate:Nbt: Scales the breadth of canyons. Higher values make canyons wider.
      • Template:Nbt inherit/float provider
    • Template:Nbt: Vertically scales canyons. Higher values make canyons deeper.
    • Template:Nbt: Scales the height based on the horizontal distance from the canyon's center, resulting in deeper center.
    • Template:Nbt: Higher values smooth canyon walls on the vertical axis. Must be greater than 0.
