The way we want to achieve this is by<br \/>\nnot changing vanilla, but adding to it. So let&#8217;s say we want to be able to customize the Ice Spike feature, the way Reef<br \/>\napproaches this is by creating a new identical feature that is fully customizable. So there is no need for dirty mixins and<br \/>\nbreaking compatibility with other mods. This is not possible in all cases of course, and in those cases we will take<br \/>\nthe least intrusive option.<\/p>\n<p>## What Does the mod do?<\/p>\n<p>Reef does a lot of things! Well, only a few for now, but we have great plans.<br \/>\nCurrently, the mod adds duplicates of vanilla features that can be properly configured. Custom Tags have been added to<br \/>\nenable icebergs or eroded badlands generation to occur in biomes. And a Custom StructurePool Projection (See warning<br \/>\nsection about this.)<\/p>\n<p>## Contents<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Custom Features:<br \/>\n  &#8211; Spike (&#8220;Ice Spike&#8221; Feature, but customizable)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Inverted Spike (&#8220;Spike&#8221; Feature, but is upside down)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Monster Room (&#8220;Dungeon&#8221; Feature, but customizable)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Structure Piece (Similar to &#8220;Fossil&#8221; Feature, but with no forced height offset)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Large Cave Pillar (&#8220;Large Dripstone&#8221;, but customizable)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Feature List (Places all features in a list)<br \/>\n&#8211; Custom Tags:<br \/>\n  &#8211; `has_eroded_pillar` (Will apply a custom Eroded Badlands Surface Builder, which has been tweaked to use OCEAN_FLOOR_WG)<br \/>\n  &#8211; `has_vanilla_badlands_pillar` (Will apply the vanilla Eroded Badlands Surface Builder. Should only be used to stop vanilla from generating. Will break in water)<br \/>\n  &#8211; `has_iceberg` (Will apply the Iceberg Surface Builder)<br \/>\n&#8211; StructurePool Projections:<br \/>\n  &#8211; `SEAFLOOR_MATCHING` (Adds seafloor matching projection. See warning section about this.)<\/p>\n<p>## Future of the lib<\/p>\n<p>While this lib is only in the early stages of development. We already have plans to fully deprecate this mod. Since This<br \/>\nis planned to be just one module from our future mod `VoidLib`.<\/p>\n<p>### Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because it is nicer to have a single jar file for all the libs we use, kinda like Fapi or QSL<\/p>\n<p>Then why not just release `VoidLib`?<br \/>\nBecause Gradle multi-module projects are hard \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>## WARNING<\/p>\n<p>As the mod is currently in very early stages, so there are some kinks we have not fixed.<br \/>\nAs of the current version (0.1.2) here are the current warning:<\/p>\n<p>#### StructurePool Projection `SEAFLOOR_MATCHING`<\/p>\n<p>This projection exists but does not behave anything like expected.<br \/>\nPlease don&#8217;t use it for anything, but testing.<\/p>\n<p>#### Custom Features<\/p>\n<p>All the current features were made quickly and very messily for a world gen mod we were working on. They have not been<br \/>\nproperty cleaned up and optimized. So do expect them to change, both as features and their configs.<\/p>\n<p>## Wiki<\/p>\n<p>As of the current update (0.1.2) there is no wiki.<br \/>\nThis is just a note saying that Ender is working on one.<br \/>\nIf there isn&#8217;t one more than a month after the (0.1.2) release, go @ Ender on discord<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Library that extends vanilla worldgen by providing alternatives to unmodifiable features<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":131099,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"reef","_minecraft_project_id":"AqJVwCCS","_minecraft_author":"TheEnderCore","_minecraft_license":"MIT","_minecraft_downloads":713,"_minecraft_follows":11,"_minecraft_client_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"reef.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":377731,"_minecraft_version_count":5,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T23:26:46.344020Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-05-01T07:15:24.288731Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-03-29T19:40:17.965395Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/reef","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":131099,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-07T17:28:35+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"18cab1012aae4ba6b2acac7dae915ccc","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[97,873,92,159],"mod_loader":[99],"minecraft_version":[101,102,62,37,40,41,80,81,82],"class_list":["post-131098","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-library","mod_category-utility","mod_category-worldgen","mod_loader-fabric","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
