# Overview This datapack adds a single new item - the Biome Scanner. This item can be used like a compass to locate biomes. ## Crafting The Biome Scanner is crafted with a compass, three copper ingots, and a lightning rod: !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/b86e84f1e329ed70e9173af35afd279b3bb899d9.png) ## Usage To use the Biome Scanner, hold the 'use' button (i.e. right click) with the biome scanner in one hand and an item related to the biome in the other. See below for the full table of items and biomes. After a short time (longer if the nearest instance of a biome is far away), the screen will light up with arrows pointing towards the targeted biome. !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/e9898535c43bdb175c49a5fa9fd7284e7479984a.png) You can use the following command to register a new item/biome pair with the following command, to allow more or custom biomes to be found with the biome scanner: ``` data merge storage biome_scan:dict {"minecraft:item_id":{dimension:"minecraft:dim_id",biome:"minecraft:biome_id",message:"Finding Biomes"}} ``` - `item_id` is the id of a _single_ item. - `dim_id` is the dimension the biome is found in. - `biome_id` is the biome or biome tag to search for. - The message field is displayed when the player starts scanning, and added as item lore when scanning is complete ### Default Biome List The following table includes every biome grouping and the item(s) used to locate the nearest biome in that grouping: |Biome Group |Biomes |Items | |---|---|---| |Badlands|`badlands`, `wooded_badlands`, `eroded_badlands`|Any Terracotta| |Bamboo Jungle|`bamboo_jungle`|Bamboo| |Basalt Deltas|`basalt_deltas`|Basalt| |Birch Forests|`birch_forest`, `old_growth_birch_forest`|Birch Sapling| |Cherry Forests|`cherry_grove`|Cherry Sapling| |Warm Ocean|`warm_ocean`|Any Live Coral| |Crimson Forests|`crimson_forest`|Crimson Fungus| |Dark Oak Forests|`dark_forest`|Dark Oak Sapling| |Deep Dark|`deep_dark`|Deepslate, Cobbled Deepslate| |Dripstone Caves|`dripstone_caves`|Dripstone, Pointed Dripstone| |Flower Forest|`flower_forest`|Any (https://minecraft.wiki/w/Flower_Forest#Differences_to_regular_forests)| |Frozen Biomes|`frozen_ocean`,`deep_frozen_ocean`,`frozen_peaks`,`frozen_river`|Ice| |Gravel Hills|`windswept_gravelly_hills`|Gravel| |Ice Spikes|`ice_spikes`|Blue Ice| |Jungles|`jungle`,`sparse_jungle`|Jungle Sapling| |Lush Caves|`lush_caves`|Small Dripleaf, Big Dripleaf| |Mangrove Swamp|`mangrove_swamp`|Mangrove Propagule| |Mountains|`jagged_peaks`,`stony_peaks`|Stone, Cobblestone| |Mushroom Islands|`mushroom_fields`|Brown Mushroom, Red Mushroom| |Oak Forests|`forest`,`windswept_forest`|Oak Sapling| |Oceans|`ocean`,`lukewarm_ocean`,`cold_ocean`,`deep_ocean`,`deep_lukewarm_ocean`,`deep_cold_ocean`|Water Bucket| |Pale Oak Forest|`pale_garden`|Pale Oak Sapling| |Plains Biomes|`meadow`,`plains`,`windswept_hills`|Grass Block| |Sandy Biomes|`beach`,`desert`|Sand| |Savannas|`savanna`,`savanna_plateau`,`windswept_savanna`|Acacia Sapling| |Snowy Biomes|`snowy_beach`,`snowy_plains`,`snowy_slopes`|Snow Block| |Spruce Forests|`grove`,`old_growth_pine_taiga`,`old_growth_spruce_taiga`,`taiga`|Spruce Sapling| |Sunflower Fields|`sunflower_plains`|Sunflower| |Swamps|`swamp`|Lily Pad| |Warped Forest|`warped_forest`|Warped Fungus|
