Displays the coordinates for the closest biome of a given biome ID or a biome tag in the chat for the player who executed the command.
Syntax[]
locatebiome <biome>
Arguments[]
<biome>
: resource_or_tag
- Specifies the biome(s) to be located. See Biome/ID for a list of available biome IDs.
- Must be a resource location or a tag.
Note[]
Only the biome with the same vertical coordinate as the execution position can be located.[1] The search resolution is 32 blocks, which means biomes that are narrower than 32 blocks may not be found.
If successful, the following message is sent to chat: "The nearest <biome name> is at [<x> ~ <z>] (<distance> blocks away)"/"The nearest <biome tag> (<biome name>) is at [<x> ~ <z>] (<distance> blocks away)", in which <distance>
is the horizontal distance between the executor and the biome. The coordinates can be clicked, which can put the command /tp @s <x> ~ <z>
in the chat box. The command can then be executed, and the player will be sent to those coordinates.
