Monolithic Modernity
I don't know my version or loader
Monolithic Modernity
Did you know that in 1.19 monoliths were techinically possible again? Well, this datapack aims to add them back in the game! (although more commonly than in alpha)
Description
This pack uses a bug from 1.19 in which, if you multiply the terrain density function by a negative number, it shoots the terrain up into the the sky. Then, with a range choice, I made that terrain much rarer.
Tldr: I made a bug a feature.
Compatibility
This should be incompatible with any other that touches the sloped_cheese file, but it's fairly easy to make it compatible. For now there's a separate file compatible with Cascades.
