Explorations Mod FAQ

Just explore your world normally — the mod's structures generate automatically in new chunks alongside vanilla terrain. If you want to find them faster, use a structure locator command or load the mod's official datapacks to tweak which structures spawn.

Structures only generate in chunks that haven't been loaded yet, so you'll need to travel into unexplored territory. If you're on a server, make sure the mod is installed on both client and server, and check that no datapack is disabling the structures.

Enable the official NoMoreFloatingIslands datapack that ships with the mod. It prevents floating islands from generating in new chunks without removing any other structures.

Forgotten Wells spawn on the surface in most overworld biomes, so scan open terrain while traveling. They're small and easy to miss, so keep an eye out for stone brick rings or unusual wells that don't match vanilla village wells.

Yes — the mod's Jungle Temples include trap mechanisms similar to vanilla ones, so bring a shield and watch for pressure plates and dispenser walls. Breaking suspicious blocks or disarming traps before grabbing loot is safer than rushing in.

Build a pillar of blocks up from the ground, use an elytra with fireworks, or stack up with a water bucket to break your fall. Once you're on top, bring plenty of blocks since the island surface is small and easy to fall off.

Yes, but the terrain is limited, so plan a compact build or extend the island with your own blocks. Watch out for mobs spawning on the edges and consider lighting the whole platform to prevent falls and hostile spawns.

Bring a sword with good knockback, blocks to wall off tunnels, and torches to control spawns. Slimes are harmless individually but overwhelming in groups, so fight in narrow corridors rather than open chambers.

Yes — slime chunks and cave spawns make them a reliable source of slimeballs. Light up a safe area, funnel slimes into a kill chamber, and keep the surrounding caves dark so new slimes keep spawning.

It generally coexists with other structure mods since it adds its own structures rather than replacing vanilla ones. If two mods try to place structures in the same spot, one may overwrite the other, so test in a fresh world if you're running a large modpack.
