Frequently asked questions

How do I find a buried wreck?
Explore caves and mine downward through stone and other blocks—buried wrecks generate underground at configurable depths just like surface shipwrecks appear in oceans. Listen for the distinctive wood and structure sounds, or look for wooden beams and dark oak wood protruding from cave walls.
What loot can I get from buried wrecks?
Buried wrecks use the same loot tables as vanilla surface shipwrecks, so you'll find items like maps, compasses, iron ingots, gold, and other valuable resources in their chests.
Can I change what Y-level buried wrecks spawn at?
Yes—the mod includes configuration options to set the minimum and maximum Y-level range where buried wrecks generate, allowing you to customize whether they appear deep underground or closer to the surface.
Do buried wrecks replace regular surface shipwrecks?
No, both versions exist independently—vanilla surface shipwrecks still generate in oceans normally, and buried wrecks are a separate structure type that only spawns underground.
