    This pack adds an extra town/village type to the Overworld dimension - lake towns that rest on supports just above the water!

    You can find these quaint little towns in the shallower ocean biomes (Ocean, Cold Ocean, Frozen Ocean, Lukewarm Ocean, and Warm Ocean). Nothing has been removed from Vanilla to make this happen.

    There are a large number of different types of structure that generate here, including forges, chapels, inns, libraries, houses, and much more. Every lake town generates centered around a large town hall structure.

    Enjoy!


    Hint: Lake Towns use the structure type "minecraft:bastion_remnant", which otherwise can't be found in Overworld; hence, /locate minecraft:bastion_remnant while in Overworld will always find you a Lake Town.

    Quick question. If I wanted a structure to spawn directly above the water, how tall do the supports need to be?

    Your best best is to use a bastion_remnant type, because it has a constant spawn height location (y=31). Compare the relative ground-level to your sea level noise setting, which is a also a constant - the difference is what you need.

    For example, your structure start's lowest block will be at y=31. If the structure's ground-level would be at, let's say y=35 because your ground-level is a few blocks up from the structure's bottom, and the sea level is at, let's say 52, then your column would be 52-35=17 blocks high.

    You are really a master architect, wow!!! I was never expecting someone to make structure data pack that cool! THANKS! I thought I would only be able to see something like that with only a seed bug or something...

    Hey, thanks a lot :). Honestly, the thing that impresses me most is how much can be done without having to mod the game as of 1.16.

    As long as I don't run out of cool ideas, I'll do my best to keep making neat things!

    Is this pack incompatible with the Abyssal Villages? I've created a world with both and could only find the Lake Towns...

    Really like both of the packs

    Would be great if there was a way to have both

    Could you make all villages in one datapack? I can't merge them together 'cause some of your villages datapacks have the same .nbt file name. I'm running it on a server.

    No two files in the pack share a name, and villagers both spawn and gain occupations with the pack.

    I'm not quite sure I understand the request.

    No no it's okay! I think I understand now. I have been thinking of updating my structure-related data packs to use totally separate naming systems and make them easy to combine.

    I've also been thinking of releasing a pack that puts some of them together. While I can't promise this right away because of the other projects I'm working on (and because of life being busy in general), this is something I want to do!

    It's nice to know that there is someone it will help :)

    Nice pack! I wouldn't expect using bastions for villages. Recently I had a discussion about making some hawai villages, which turned out to be impossible with regular methods. I hope you don't mind drawing inspirations...

    Thanks! Bastion remnant was perfect here, because I wanted the villages to spawn exactly above the water. Bastion Remnant always begins at y=31, and sea level is also constant - these two combined allowed for what I was going for :)
