Frequently asked questions

Do I need to start a new world or can I use this on an existing one?
You can use it on an existing world, but only unvisited chunks will transform into solid columns—any chunk you've already explored will keep its normal terrain. Starting fresh gives you the full experience of discovering randomized landscapes.
How do I know when I'm entering a new chunk?
Chunk borders are invisible in-game, but you'll see an obvious visual change: a sudden wall or pillar of a single block type appears as you cross the boundary. The guides on chunk navigation can help you map these transitions deliberately.
Can I control which blocks appear in new chunks?
No, the mod selects randomly from its 10 block groups each time you enter a new chunk. You can only choose which block groups are active (like excluding Nether blocks if you prefer), but not predict individual results.
What happens to caves and underground structures?
Caves, mineshafts, and all underground features are completely replaced by the random block type filling that chunk from bottom to sky limit. There are no hollow spaces or natural structures in newly generated chunks.
