Merged changes from 1.17 branch. Complete feature list, compared to initial 1.16.2 release:

  • Updated to grid-based biome distribution; this will make it easier to move around or add biomes in the future, if needed. In-game terrain gen/biome distribution doesn't appear to be significantly affected.

  • Overhauled beach generation:

    • Beaches now generate with sandstone underneath them.
    • Single-layer of gravel that generated as a consequence of using the Nether surface builder has been removed and replaced with b1.7.3-like gravel beaches that generate on a per-biome basis. Currently generates in cold beach and taiga biomes.

  • Reduced minimum height for most dry biomes to increase lake generation, for more Beta-like generation.

  • Reduced tundra generation and increased taiga/snowy taiga generation.

  • Reduced savanna generation and increased birch forest generation.

  • Reduced jungle/bamboo generation, Rainforests now replace them half of the time.

  • Increased Mushroom Fields, Badlands/Badlands Plateau generation somewhat.

  • Shifted swamp temperature range towards colder temperatures, to approximate Beta generation.

  • Increased base height of fancy oaks.

  • Added temporary fix for stone generating over y=127.

  • Added five biomes:

    • Rainforest; based on pre-b1.8 biome, generates with some oak bushes. Displaces jungle/bamboo jungle in some areas, so those biomes are now even rarer.
    • Savanna Grassland; based on pre-b1.8 savanna biome. Minimal foliage and tall grass.
    • Marsh; based on pre-b1.8 swampland biome. Generates alongside coastlines with minimal foliage and tall grass. Marsh and Swamp biomes now generate with marsh-like terrain in low areas.
    • Shrubland: A dry biome based on the pre-b1.8 biome, but now generates with bushes as well. Generates between forest, savanna, and plains biomes.
    • Ice Desert: A snowy desert biome based on the pre-b1.8 biome. Rarely found in tundra-savanna temperature range.

  • Modified 'Adventuring Time' advancement; now tracks all current Modern Beta biomes.

  • Added compatibility with BAC Advancements data pack. See pack credits.txt for all changed advancements.

  • Lightened sky color for temperate biomes.

  • Other minor changes.
