Mechanics
Environmental Hazards
- Quicksand Sinking: If you step into Quicksand, you will begin to sink. To escape, you must break the blocks around you or be pulled out with a lead/piston. Movement is severely restricted while submerged.
- Wasteland Desiccation: Cracked Sand in the Wasteland biome will eventually turn nearby Grass blocks into Dirt, simulating a spreading desert effect.
Mob Spawning
- Slimes: In the Green Swamplands biome, Slimes can spawn on the surface regardless of the chunk's "Slime Chunk" status, similar to vanilla Swamps but with higher frequency.
- Wolves: Spawn frequently in Forested Hills, Forested Islands, and Mountain Taiga biomes.
