I have a structure that generates a cat in it but I need it to be a black cat every time the structure generates, but whenever it generates the cat is randomized. Is there any way for it to be a black cat every time?

I'm pretty sure even though things like cat variant or equipment can be randomized when a structure generates, if the entity has tags it will keep them when spawned. So unfortunately you'll probably need to give those cats a tag, re-save the structure, then use a ticking function to check for cats with the tag and change their variant with a data command

So you want mod help, not data pack help?

well I thought since structures are the same in mods and datapacks unless you are doing something advanced, it would be fine to ask here. I kinda forgot you even had a channel for mod help

We don't

#1143095605577654392 doesn't that have modding help?

Not really, no

oh

You're right that mods and data packs handle structure generation the same way, but there isn't a feature of custom structure generation that disables the randomization of things like cat variant or mob equipment

mob equipment does stay the same

So I offered a solution that I know how to do in my capacity as a helper in a data pack server

yeah I know thank you. I just didn't expect the solution to be datapack related. I thought there must be something in the structure json files or structure blocks I could do
