World Generation #36

Idea, maybe a first start could be to implement superflat, we also should probably have an enum with the different world-gen options (noise, debug, superflat, normal) |
Good idea |
|
To add, slime chunks are also needed to be generated. |

Another resource that could be useful : http://cuberite.xoft.cz/docs/Generator.html It documents the way Cuberite's world generator works. I believe Feather also based their generator on it. |
Rather than an enum, you should probably create a |
Hey, I think this is actual what we are ended doing now |
This will be a fun one. I bet this will take longer than a week :c

Biome map
It all starts with the so-called “biome map”: which serves as a template to dictate which type of biome goes in each region of the world. Plains, deserts, mountains and oceans are all examples of possible biomes, and nowadays the Overworld alone counts over 60 of them.
The map is built using a sequence of fairly simple operations, referred to as “layers”, which are stacked on top of each other. Each layer takes the biome map from the previous one, adds some details, and passes it to the next one.
Terrain:
Basic Outline
The first one creates a basic outline, using the biome map to decide the height each region can have. The result is a solid, barren landscape, entirely made out of stone, where every empty block below y=62 is turned into water.
Biome's
The following step replaces all the surface stone blocks with a type appropriate to their biome. Grass for plains, sand for desert, gravel for oceans, and so on. This is also where the bedrock layer is generated. Interestingly enough, in the Java Edition its pattern doesn’t depend on the world seed, and is the same across every Minecraft world.
Caves's
In the third step, caves and ravines are literally carved out of stone.
Finally, the third phase populates the world with the remaining features. Structures like villages, strongholds and ocean monuments are placed first, followed by decorative elements like trees and grass. This is also when ore veins are added in the world, in a process not dissimilar to the ones used by “Infiniminer”.
Biomes

Overworld
Offland biomes (islands/oceans)
Highland biomes
Woodland biomes
Wetland biomes
Flatland biomes
Arid-land biomes(it neither rains nor snows at all, but the sky still turns overcast during inclement weather.)
Cave biomes(oh hell they exist as well :c)
Void biomes
Nether (hell (literally) it does not end)
i thought there were more biomes since 1.16 update. But luckly for us
