World generation

 * World types
 * Large, medium and small option due to the lack of infinite worlds (Xbox One and PS4 along with Classic).
 * Biome Scale
 * Small, medium, and large option. The small option is the default due to the lack of infinite worlds, so one world can have more biomes.
 * There is a "Find Balanced Seed" option, selected by default, which makes the game randomly select seeds that have a better variety of biomes.
 * Superflat Interface
 * An interface for creating superflat worlds.
 * The Nether
 * Has limited size, and is slightly larger with a larger world size.
 * The Nether-Overworld portal ratio is larger depending on world size: 1:3 in Classic and Small; 1:6 in Medium; and 1:8, like other versions of Minecraft, in Large.
 * The edge of this dimension is made of bedrock.
 * The Nether is hollow, with a flat ground, when using a superflat world.
 * The End
 * The maximum number of end gateway portals is four, rather than twenty.
 * Each end gateway portal leads to only one island, which is as big as the main island. One of the four outer islands is guaranteed to spawn an end city.
 * The size does not change with regard to world size. Even on Classic, the islands are so far apart that they are all on different Maps.
 * Each of the five islands are surrounded by invisible walls, making it impossible to go between them without the use of end gateways.
