The placement object determines the vertical logic and environment checks for the structure. Worldshape supports four primary placement types:

Placement Types

  1. surface: Snaps the structure to the highest solid block.
    • Optional: fluidSurface (Boolean) allows spawning on water or lava
  2. underground: Spawns the structure within solid terrain between minY and maxY.
  3. cave: Specifically targets air pockets within caves.
    • Note: Structures using cave type are treated as "features" and cannot be found using the /locate command
  4. nether: Optimized for the Nether's ceiling and floor logic.

Advanced Placement Settings
