Ever wanted more structure datapacks that spawns things in the sky?
Download this to make cool hot air balloons spawn around your world!
(Not typical spawn rates)

Full credit goes to Ercerus for creating the original datapack. It's only for 1.18, and he stated that the project will no longer be updated, so I decided to port it to 1.20 myself!
I edited the config to make the balloons spawn more often, but not so often that it gets annoying (IMO). If they still spawn too often for you, download "Rare" or "Legacy". If you want them to spawn more frequently, download "Common". Don't try to edit the JSONs yourself, it will break the datapack for some reason. Use this instead.
Currently, these are just for decoration and there is no loot that spawns with these balloons, simply a villager (unless you count that as loot...)
