An ancient city is a palatial structure found in the deep dark, harboring chests containing items that cannot be found anywhere else or that help a player avoid a warden. It always spawns at y level -52.

Structure

Environment aesthetics

An ancient city features a very large palace that stretches throughout a deep dark biome. The palace is made up of long corridors with gray wool floors to prevent vibrations as well as some smaller ruins off to the side of the main corridors, which contain between one or two loot chests. The city center features a frame resembling a warden's head, where there are reinforced deepslate blocks, which is an unobtainable material in Survival mode. Other unique blocks such as soul lanterns and candles as well as different forms of deepslate can be found here.

Redstone circuits

Underneath the frame at the city center lies a series of hidden rooms with naturally generating redstone circuitry, such as piston doors and logic gates. The secret entrance is located at the base of the structure, in front of the frame. There is a sculk sensor above it. Each variant of the city center uses a different redstone circuit to conceal the entrance. Sometimes there is nothing in front of the frame. Other times, there can be a chest or a set of walls in front of the frame.

'''Nether sprouts''' are a non-solid fungi block that generate in [[warped forest]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Nether sprouts generate in [[warped forest]] biomes.

=== Breaking ===
Nether sprouts can be mined instantly with any item. The block also breaks if the block below is removed, or if [[water]] flows into its space. The block only drops if broken with [[shear]]s.

=== Post-generation ===
Applying [[bone meal]] to warped [[nylium]] creates nether sprouts on that block and surrounding nylium, along with both types of [[roots]] and [[fungi]].

== Usage ==
[[File:RootsSproutsPlaceBlock.png|thumb|All of the blocks that nether sprouts can be placed on.]]
Nether sprouts can be planted on the same blocks that [[fungus|fungi]] and [[roots]] can be placed on: [[nylium]], [[soul soil]], [[Grass Block|grass]], [[podzol]], [[mycelium]], [[Moss Block|moss]], [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], and [[farmland]]. However, they cannot be planted in [[flower pot]]s.

=== Composting ===
Placing nether sprouts into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

'''Sugar cane''' is a block found as 1–4-block-tall. It plants near water in the [[Overworld]]. As an item, it is an important crafting ingredient.

== Obtaining ==
Sugar cane can be mined instantly with anything.

When the spot a sugar cane block is placed in becomes unsuitable, such as when the supporting block is removed, the sugar cane block uproots and drops as an item. {{IN|be}}, sugar cane uproots immediately after all adjacent water is removed. {{IN|je}}, sugar cane uproots on the next block update or [[Tick#Random tick|random tick]].

A sugar cane block drops itself as an item if a piston tries to push it (trying to pull it does nothing) or moves a block into its space.

=== Natural generation ===
[[File:Sugar Canez.png|thumb|250px|Naturally-occurring sugar cane near a river.]]
Sugar cane can generate naturally near [[water]], as two ({{frac|11|18}} chance), three ({{frac|5|18}} chance), or four ({{frac|2|18}} chance) blocks tall. Rare taller sugar canes can be found if the world generator places two smaller canes on top of each other. It generates in approximately 0.8 sugar cane per chunk seeing as how they only generate near bodies of water.

Sugar canes attempt to generate 10 times in any Overworld biome, which requires water. An extra 10 attempts are made in [[swamp]] biomes, and 50 in [[desert]] biomes, which makes sugar cane twice as frequent in swamps and six times as frequent in desert biomes, making the banks of [[river]]s that cut through deserts lined with sugar canes.

Sugar cane cannot generate in caves {{in|je}}.<ref>{{bug|MC-214959||Sugar cane generated in cave|Fixed}}</ref>

=== Trading ===
[[Wandering trader]]s can sell sugar cane for an [[emerald]].

== Usage ==
Due to its water-displacing properties, sugar cane can interestingly be used to create underwater paths, allowing [[player]]s to move at normal speed and breathe if it is two blocks in height.{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MC-929||Sugar cane can be placed underwater|WAI}}</ref>

Sugar cane takes on a different shade of green depending on the biome in which it is placed.

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Farming ===
{{main|Tutorials/Sugar cane farming}}
[[File:Underground Sugar Farm.png|200px|thumb|An underground sugar cane farm.]]

Sugar cane can generate naturally up to any number of blocks tall, but ''grow'' only to a height of three blocks, adding a block of height when the top sugar cane block has received 16 random [[Tick#Block tick|block tick]]s (i.e. on average every 18 minutes on ''Java Edition''<!-- Average 68.27 seconds/tick * 16 ticks/growth = 18.2 minutes --> or 54 minutes on Bedrock Edition, but the actual rate can vary widely). 
Sugar cane must be planted on a [[grass block]], [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], [[podzol]], [[mycelium]], [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[suspicious sand]], [[moss block]], or [[mud]] that is directly adjacent to [[water]], [[waterlogged]] block, or [[frosted ice]] (not merely above or diagonal to water), or on top of another sugar cane block. The adjacent water block can be covered with another block, whether [[opacity|opaque or transparent]], and sugar cane can still be placed and grow next to it. Sugar cane grows regardless of light level, even in complete darkness.
[[File:4blockcane.png|thumb|A natural 4-block-high sugar cane plant.]]
{{IN|bedrock}}, [[bone meal]] can be used to instantly grow sugar cane to three blocks. Only one bone meal is consumed. {{IN|java}}, bone meal cannot be used on sugar cane.<ref>{{bug|MC-73963||Can't use bonemeal on cacti or sugar cane|WAI}}</ref>

On average, it takes [[Tutorials/Sugar_cane_farming#Mechanics|18 minutes]] for a single block of sugar cane to grow 3 blocks tall.

=== Composting ===
Placing sugar cane into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

=== Sugar cane "item" ===
{{:Technical blocks/Sugar Cane}}

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*When a sugar cane is broken at the second level, the time resets (for example, if a two-block high sugar cane is broken, but is just about to grow to the third stage, it would reset that time).
*By placing more sugar canes on top of a sugar cane plant, it is possible to create tall sugar canes (up to y=319, the maximum height for building), although they do not naturally grow this high.
*Before sugar cane received an official name, they were sometimes referred to as [[bamboo]], a block added 9 years later. Other names were "reeds" and "papyrus".
