The mod is OUTDATED but some people make it work 

Shared Structures

Generate custom prefab structures in existing biomes/zones using vanilla-style placement patterns.

What it does

  • Loads structure entries from your asset packs
  • Places prefabs during world generation using pattern rules (grid/noise/height/parent/masks)
  • Supports entities and block spawners embedded in prefabs

How to add structuresCreate JSON config files in your pack at:

  • Server/WorldGen/SharedStructures/Prefabs/*.json

Each file contains an array of entries.

Fields

  • Id: unique name for the entry
  • Prefab: prefab asset id(s)
  • Weight: weights matching the Prefab list
  • BiomeMask: wildcard match against the biome id
  • ZoneMask: wildcard match against the zone id
  • Pattern: either { "File": "A.B.C" } or an inline pattern object

Notes

  • Patterns are resolved relative to the worldgen data folder. A file reference A.B.C loads A/B/C.json.
  • Prefabs should be stored under Server/Prefabs/ in your pack.

Example:

[ { "Id": "castlearena", "Prefab": ["YourPack.CastleArena"], "Weight": [1.0], "BiomeMask": ["*Plains*"], "ZoneMask": ["Zone1_Tier1"], "Pattern": { "File": "World.Default.Zones.Pattern_Monuments"} } ]
