this isn't really intended but sort of a mod compatibility issue, there are some blocks that the end city isn't spawnable on but probably should be.

will take a look at it for next update

[undone mortar]

would be very good... when this update comes out would it be possible to get more end citys in already created worlds? (so that they would have a normal spawnrate in not generated chunks)

[small laurel]

that won't be possible unfortunately, there's no way to add structures to generated chunks like that. I would recommend just regenerating your end dimension (people don't usually build there anyway)

if you don't want to wait for the update, you should be able to increase end city spawn rate a decent amount by placing this file into /config/paxi/datapacks/ on the server

[undone mortar]

oh you can regenerate the end dimension? didnt know that

with that config there should be a normal end city spawn rate right?

[small laurel]

it doesn't quite fix the issue where end cities can't spawn in some places, but in the places they can spawn they'll be much more common

it definitely helps

[undone mortar]

ok thx so much for the quick help 🫶

[small laurel]

yeah just delete the DIM1 folder from the world folder and restart

make a backup first

[undone mortar]

thank you sm

[undone mortar]

sorry for asking again, do you have a ressource where i can look up what each field in the jsons do or some kind of documentation? im not really new to programming so i should be good with some sort of documentation. i would like to test which "spacing" changes the spawnrate to a spawnrate that fits for me. if you dont have any docs would be very appreciatet if you could explain the following fields

"structures": [
    {
      "structure": "minecraft:end_city",
      "weight": 1
    }
  ],
  "placement": {
    "type": "minecraft:random_spread",
    "salt": 10387313,
    "spacing": 8,
    "separation": 4
  }

[small laurel]

it's just number of chunks - "spacing" is the size of each square of placing attempts, separation is the minimum distance between two structures. spacing should always be higher than separation

check out https://misode.github.io/worldgen/structure-set/ and just paste in the full contents of that structure set json

if you set them much lower than that you'll get end cities basically overlapping - but then you'll also see just how much of the area isn't spawnable for end cities at all

[undone mortar]

Ok thank you so much for that help

Your my savior

[undone mortar]

figured it out

[small laurel]

yeah DIM-1 is the nether

[undone mortar]

sorry

[small laurel]

ok

[undone mortar]

DIM-1 is nether

[small laurel]

lmao

[undone mortar]

https://misode.github.io/worldgen/structure/ in my understanding i can change the behaviour in which bioms an end city can spawn with this? would adding the better end biomes here help or is the problem really the blocks where they can spawn on?

[craggy quail]

will the end city spawn in chunks that I havent loaded in the next update?

[small laurel]

it’s the blocks yeah, not the biomes

otherwise that would have been a much easier fix

[small laurel]

yeah if you haven’t loaded the chunks yet the new generation will apply

[undone mortar]

Just so yk it improves it but the hotfix is still not even near to vanilla behaviour. Also if you decide to reset the end you should also remove the part of the level.dat file for the end fight otherwise the return portal and the portals in general wont be generated

[craggy quail]

I think I'll wait for the update and load in a different part of the end

since I think its dropping today

[undone mortar]

You can find dragon eggs in strutures dragons are a good alternative to elytra

[craggy quail]

yeah we got 2 rn

[undone mortar]

Update with end city fix comming soon or taking some time?

[craggy quail]

I cant ride my friends dragon tho

[undone mortar]

Yeah only the one who tamed it

You can breed them to get more

[craggy quail]

when is the update droping?

[small laurel]

now
