World generation

 * Ancient City
 * Now generate with valuable loot that includes the "otherside" music disc, Potions of Regeneration II, enchanted books, enchanted iron and diamond leggings, enchanted diamond hoes, and enchanted golden apples.
 * If the frame of reinforced deepslate generates with a chest in front, it will always contain one golden apple (a hint about how to open the secret door below).
 * Has different levels and open spaces, with several types of ruins and wall structures.
 * Some of these structures contain dark oak logs, planks, and fences; cyan, light blue, and blue wool and carpets; ladders; ice and its variants; note blocks; stone pressure plates; and iron trapdoors opened with levers.
 * Hidden underneath the frame of reinforced deepslate are several rooms containing redstone mechanisms that serve to introduce new players to their function.
 * There is a silenced sculk sensor that needs a signal strength of 8 to open a redstone door. Taking the golden carrot from the chest placed near the structure and eating it will reveal the entrance.
 * Each variant of the city center has a different redstone puzzle concealing the entrance, requiring slightly different strategies to solve.
 * The mechanisms are made with redstone dust, redstone torches, redstone repeaters, redstone comparators, redstone lamps, blocks of redstone, sticky pistons, a sculk sensor, a target, and a lectern.
 * One variant includes a lever, and another includes a furnace containing 24 deepslate and a wooden shovel.
