Technical Changes in 22w06a

  • Any type present in registries (blocks, items, biomes, etc.) can now have tags

Universal tags

  • Tags can now be defined for any registry (blocks, items, biomes, etc. - see registries.json in report)
  • New tags are stored in datapacks under tags directory (same as old ones)
    • Names of new tag directories are the same as registry names (so /data/[namespace]/tags/potion and /data/[namespace]/tags/worldgen/biome)
    • Existing tags (blocks, items, fluids, entity_types, game_events and functions) keep their name (for now)
  • Some fields in worldgen structures that previously only lists of element ids now accept tags
    • Those entries now accept [id, ...], id (shortcut for [id]) and #tag
    • Changed fields are:
      • feature.glow_lichen configuration: can_be_placed_on
      • feature.spring_feature configuration: valid_blocks
      • feature.simple_random_selector configuration: features
      • block_predicate_type.matching_blocks: blocks
      • block_predicate_type.matching_fluids: fluids
      • biome: inner list in features, map value in carvers
      • biome_source.checkerboard: biomes
  • Some tag fields now require id to be prepended with # (however they are not yet accepting element list)
    • dimension_type: infiniburn
    • feature.geode configration: blocks.cannot_replace, blocks.invalid_blocks
    • feature.vegetation_patch, feature.waterlogged_vegetation_patch configuration: replaceable
    • feature.root_system configuration: root_replaceable
