Spawn less gold blocks in Bastion Remnants

[bleak thunder]

Hello, I'm currently developing a UHC datapack and I want the option to nerf Bastions so they have less gold blocks than usual. I found a temporary solution by replacing nearby gold blocks around the players with gilded blackstone, though this is not exactly what I'm aiming for, and I don't know how to do any better using commands.

Is there a way to achieve this using commands or should I directly modify the structure? If the answer is the latter, what would be a somewhat easy way to begin modifying structures? I assume it's the more practical solution but I've never done it before.

I believe the gold blocks get placed in the structure by a processor, so you can just modify/overwrite the processor it uses to produce fewer gold blocks

[bleak thunder]

Modifying the existing processor list for bastions doesn't seem to work, am I missing something?

[silver tiger]

What did you modify it from?

(Also I just noticed I tagged you, please tell me if I shouldn't)

[bleak thunder]

I copied the vanilla file and added a predicate to change 50% of the gold blocks

[silver tiger]

There's already a predicate to change 30% of them, why didn't you just increase that?

[bleak thunder]

I noticed it after testing, but setting that aside, it's not overriding the vanilla file anyways.

How do you know?

It's in the right place, it should be working fine.

I changed some output states to magenta concrete, nothing changes

[silver tiger]

You're positive the data pack is on the world you're testing on? Did you exit and reopen the world after making changes?

Worldgen changes don't update on /reload

[bleak thunder]

I made the datapack beforehand and added it during world creation

It is enabled when I spawn

[silver tiger]

Not sure what to tell you, it looks all fine to me

[bleak thunder]

Does /reload work with the worldgen folder? I assumed it would do nothing since, well, it's already generated

[silver tiger]

No, I just said it doesn't

[bleak thunder]

Oh nvm Im blind

Sorry

I'll keep looking for a solution in other moment

Should I close this post?

[silver tiger]

You don't have to, the problem isn't solved yet

[bleak thunder]

Alright

Hi, I want to try something different this time. Is it possible to detect each gold block that is within a certain distance from the player? I thought of summoning an armor stand in each block and using random values and stuff from there.
