Terralith

Biome Reworks

• Fungal Caves
  • More moss with smaller and more diverse mushrooms
• Ice Marsh
  • Complete rework
  • Trees are made of Mangrove instead
  • Better ground foliage
• Swamp (Vanilla)
  • Light touch-ups, such as better mud placement
• Forest and Flower Forest (Vanilla)
  • Small foliage changes
  • The small gravel/stone patches are now gravel/andesite
• Stony Spires
  • Cliffs are now primarily andesite and moss
  • Sparse but large spruce trees generate
• Windswept Spires
  • Added spruce trees, large ferns, and rose bushes
  • Diorite blobs generate in lue of dirt blobs
• Underground Jungle
  • Massive rework
  • Ground is completely made of mud
  • Occasional large cherry trees and common small oak/azalea trees, with common bee hives
  • Tons of ground foliage: everything from mushrooms to ferns to flowers to dripstone to bamboo to (rare) sniffer plants
  • A lovely subtle pink petal particle throughout the whole biome

New Structures

• Mage Tower (built by Whale)
  • Generates in "mystical" biomes such as Amethyst Jungle or Moonlight Grove
  • 4 variants for each of the Skylands
  • There are multiple levels with increasingly difficult mobs
• Mage Complex (built by Whale)
  • Just like the Mage Tower, but also generates a small "village" in front of it
• Desert Outpost (built by koolkid)
  • The desert resort where pillagers come to relax
  • Spawns pillagers like an outpost, with some normal loot, and suspicious sand
• Valley Lodge (built by Whale)
  • Generates in Shield and Valley Clearings
  • Meant to be an early game structure with some villagers and beginner loot
• Igloo (built by Apollo)
  • It's... an Igloo.
• Rubble (built by Blu)
  • Small 5x5 structures that generate throughout the world
  • 6 biome variants (Forest, Jungle, Taiga, Desert, Mesa, Mountain) with 3 size variants each (small, medium, large)
  • Very small amount of archaeology-related loot and suspicious sand/gravel

1.20.5

• Updated to support 1.20.5 and 1.20.6
• All Vanilla wolf variants generate in Terralith biomes where it makes sense
  • Supports the c tag usage for wolf variants as agreed upon by Smithed and some other biome mods
• Armadillos generate in Terralith's Savanna biomes

Big Changes

• Now supports Neoforge
• Reworked the intro message to be shorter and more clear
  • You can disable it with this datapack/mod
• Fixed Terralith's old method of handling passive mob spawning
  • Mobs used to be rarer, but spawned in huge pack sizes
  • Pack sized have now been reverted to normal, while passive mobs can spawn on a lot more blocks to make them not as rare
• New crafting recipes
  • Since Terralith adds stone-specific caves (andesite, granite... etc), sometimes it is nice to be able to use those stones instead of cobblestone in recipes
  • Stone tools and many redstone components have these alternative recipes
  • 2 stone slabs can be crafted into 1 cobblestone, to reduce inventory clutter when mining in Highlands or other biomes that use stone slabs in generation
• Completely removed all traces of Traveller's Maps
  • They will no longer have a chance of returning in Terralith. However, a separate add-on is possible in the future
• Helmet on top of the Spire
  • Correctly gives armor instead of being useless
  • Adjusted the enchantments and attributes a little bit
  • It is no longer netherite, but diamond with a netherite silence trim

Other Changes

• Witches now spawn naturally in Terralith's Witch Hut
• Snowy Maple Forest spawns more winter-like mobs
• Deep Dark is a little more rare
• Added structure tags for ease of locating some structure variants
  • Fortified Villages, Rubble, Mage Towers, and all underground structures
• Stray spawns in Frostfire Caves (again) and Ice Marsh
• Halved the generation rate of a specific piece in Fortified Village, as it generated way too often
• Summer Skyland tweaks:
  • Added packed mud veins that snake along the bottom of the island
  • The ocean underneath now has sand as the floor instead of gravel
• Internal refactor to Mega Geodes and Mega Ravines, which mean Terralith no longer has to override as much Vanilla files
• Trees in Birch Forest and Haze Mountain no longer have random missing leaves, which makes the tree look whole and not decay way more than it should
• Added biome colors for cave biomes that are used by some minimap mods and websites

Bug Fixes

• Caldera Lakes no longer leak into other biomes
• Fixed various issues with Stony Spires and Mantle Caves generation
• Prevented a (harmless) console error about a missing terralith:underground/witch_hut
• Other modded structures should no longer generate in Skyland biomes, as they looked quite broken
• "Purple biomes" now use logs instead of wood in their trees
• Fixed a rare overlap in creeks in Forested Highlands
• Prevented a rare edge case where Lush Caves could generate on the surface
• Church piece re-added to Fortified Village, as it was somehow removed a while ago
• Deepslate Tiles will no longer be able to be replaced by ores during generation
