Sparse Structures Mod gives you access to a configuration option that lets you decide how far apart (or how nearby) structures spawn to one another. This will essentially make structures easier or harder to find depending on the setting you have applied. The changes can especially be noticed in larg

Frequently asked questions
How do I make structures spawn farther apart?
Open sparsestructures.json5 in your config folder and increase the spreadFactor value. Higher numbers multiply the spacing and separation between structures, so they become rarer and harder to find.
How do I make structures spawn closer together?
Lower the spreadFactor in sparsestructures.json5. A value below the default will shrink the spacing between structures, making them more common and easier to stumble across.
What does spreadFactor actually do?
It's a multiplier applied to both the spacing and separation values of structure placement. Raising it pushes structures apart, lowering it pulls them together, and the default value doubles the vanilla spacing.
Do I need to restart the game after changing the config?
Yes, config changes are read at world load, so you should fully close and relaunch Minecraft after editing the file. Reloading a world without restarting may not apply the new values.
