Rainbeau's Ships On Seas (SOS)

NPC Merchant Vessels, Pirates, and Lighthouses, Too!

(A Data Pack for Minecraft 1.19, 1.19.1 & 1.19.2)


This pack adds ships. On seas. More specifically, you can now find merchant vessels manned by villagers and pirate ships manned by illagers, and even occasional floating wreckage, on the ocean surface. You'll also occasionally come across lighthouses near the coast.

And yes, I named the pack "Ships On Seas" specifically so its acronym would be "SOS." What can I say? Some days, I'm easily amused.

"Ships On Seas" should be compatible with pretty much anything, though ships and lighthouses won't appear in non-vanilla ocean biomes added by mods or data packs. (My own "Sky Islands" and "Water World" data packs are exceptions to that rule.)

CREDITS: The ships and lighthouses in this pack were originally used in my "Water World" data pack for Minecraft 1.16. Many of the ships are based on vanilla shipwreck designs, with modifications suggested by the ships in WilliamWythers' "The Treasure Islands" data pack and Ercerus' "Ships Out on the Oceans." Other ships are based upon the vanilla End ship design, and still others upon ship designs uploaded by RavenBlueFeather and xTACx to minecraft-schematics.com. Floating wreckage was borrowed almost without alteration from "Ships Out on the Ocean." Finally, the lighthouses in this pack are based on a lighthouse created by Konstantinopol and uploaded to minecraft-schematics.com.

If you have cheats enabled, you can type "/locate structure seavil:ship_ocean" or "/locate structure seavil:ship_deep_ocean" to locate the nearest ship or floating wreckage, and "/locate structure seavil:lighthouse_desert" or "/locate structure seavil:lighthouse_plains" to locate the nearest lighthouse.
