All credit and thanks should go to the original author! # 🔧 Configuration Many aspects of boulder generation can be customized using datapacks. Each boulder is defined as a `configured_feature`, and its properties can be overridden in the following JSON files: * `data/boulders/worldgen/configured_feature/boulder_common.json` * `data/boulders/worldgen/configured_feature/boulder_uncommon.json` * `data/boulders/worldgen/configured_feature/boulder_rare.json` Available properties: * `material` – The material used to generate the boulder (block identifier). * `ratio` – The proportion of the material compared to ores. * `radius` – The minimum and maximum radius of the boulder. The min value must be at least 1, and max can go up to 64 ( creating an exceptionally large boulder!). * `ores` – A list of ore identifiers. These can include both vanilla and modded ores. # 📢 Feedback Feel free to reach out in our Discord if you encounter any bugs, have questions, or would like to share suggestions for improving the mod: [https://discord.gg/CJFGMTB6kN](https://discord.gg/CJFGMTB6kN)
