Talk:Configured feature

I'm new to this site, so I'm not going to edit yet. I just wanted to share some helpful information on changes to custom features in 1.17 that I think should be included on this page.

I ran into this when I was making custom ores for a new dimension.

The range decorator has been reworked in 1.17.

Say you want a range from y-level 0 to y-level 128.

This is the old 1.16 way, which is already on this page:

config{

 "maximum":128,
 "bottom_offset":0,
 "top_offset":128

}

This is how you do it in 1.17:

"config": {

 "height": {
 "type": "minecraft:uniform",
 "min_inclusive": {
 "type": "minecraft:constant",
 "below_top":256
 },
 "max_inclusive": {
 "type": "minecraft:constant",
 "below_top":128
 }
 }

}

I hope someone can add this to the page since I'm not quite sure how to do it correctly.

Hey, I have made a list of configured features (used in `/place feature`) for one of my project.

I was thinking to add this list to the wiki here, but I dont really know how to edit wiki pages.

Do you think this is a good idea and how would the editing work?

I can also send the list on here so someone else can edit.

I've tried to improve the formatting of the configured feature section in my user namespace at user:jacobsjo/custom_feature.

I've moved the "Feature type" section to be a subsection of "Configured Feature" and included the configuration options of each feature type in its own sub-section.

As an experiment, I've also moved all section titles one layer up, which is what it would look like if this page is split up into separate "Configured feature" and "Placed feature" pages; but that is entirely optional.

Potentially contentious points:

• should the configuration options be collapsed? Some configurations are quite long, so without collapsing the article would become quite long.
• should each feature type be included in the TOC?

Let me know what you think. jacobsjo (talk) 20:57, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
