Description

Abandoned & Ruined Structures is an add-on that generates new structures, such as abandoned dungeons and ruined houses. Each structure spawns in specific biomes, with smaller structures appearing more frequently and larger structures being rarer. Not all structures are found on the surface—some generate on the ocean floor or underground. Many structures come in different variations, and some contain hidden mob spawners, loot chests, or ores.
