The dripstone caves is an underground biome filled with pointed dripstone and dripstone blocks.

Description

Dripstone caves generate as a plains biome but with dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone both hanging as stalactites and growing from the ground as stalagmites. Very large dripstone speleothem structures generate rarely in expansive areas of caves or in ravines in this biome.

Dripstone caves cannot generate naturally in normal worlds, but can be generated with a buffet or custom world type.

Journeyman-level cartographer villagers sell woodland explorer maps for 14 emeralds and a compass. {{IN|java}}, if the cartographer is in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], either spawned or transported, the trades for the map do not unlock. However, {{in|bedrock}}, the cartographer trades for the map are unlocked, but the purchased map shows the same layout as in the corresponding dimension and shows no destination structure, but if cartographer trades are unlocked in an old world type (prior-1.11.0), the game stops ticking. In ''Java Edition'', each cartographer sells its own unique explorer map that points to a different location than other cartographers. Purchasing another explorer map from the same cartographer results in the same explorer map. In Bedrock Edition, a cartographer sells an explorer map that points to the nearest location, regardless of whether it is explored or previously mapped by another cartographer.<!-- start to glitched out--> === Chest loot === Treasure maps, in contrast to explorer maps, generate in underwater ruins or in shipwrecks. {{LootChestItem|buried-treasure-map}} == Usage == [[File:Explorer Map Comparison.gif|thumb|217px|Unexplored and partially explored maps.]] {{See also|Map#Mapping|Map#Map content}} === Locating structures === There are three types of explorer maps: woodland, [[ocean]], and buried treasure. The maps differ from a normal map, in that it shows the area's land-water outline, with an orange striated (striped) texture for water<ref>Specifically, biomes in the "water_on_map_outlines" [[Tag#Biomes|biome tag]].</ref>, and the blank map texture for land. The maps show a section of land that contains a [[woodland mansion]], [[monument]] or [[buried treasure]] respectively. This may not be the nearest such [[structure]] to the [[player]]. The structures are displayed as a small icon. If the player icon is smaller than it would be on a normal map, that means the player is a great distance away. When the player is less than 1027 blocks away from the map border, the icon returns to the proper size. When the player reaches the map's area of land (512×512), the [[map]] fills in like a normal map. The basic functions of a buried treasure explorer map are similar to that of the other two. However, instead of showing the structure icon on the map, it shows a red X instead. The [[buried treasure]] structure is located on the same X and Z coordinates as the middle of the X (the player marker may need to be aligned with the bottom of the middle 2×2 pixel square of the X). To locate the [[chest]] spot, hold the treasure map with both hands, not in the offhand slot. === Cloning === {{Crafting |showdescription=1 |shapeless=1 |name=[[Explorer Map]]<br>(cloned) |;;;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map |;;;;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map |;;;;;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map |Ocean Explorer Map; Woodland Explorer Map; Buried Treasure Map; Ocean Explorer Map; Woodland Explorer Map; Buried Treasure Map; Ocean Explorer Map; Woodland Explorer Map |Empty Map |;;;;;;Empty Map;Empty Map |;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map |;;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map;Empty Map |;;;;;;;Empty Map |Output= Ocean Explorer Map,2; Woodland Explorer Map,3; Buried Treasure Map,4; Ocean Explorer Map,5; Woodland Explorer Map,6; Buried Treasure Map,7; Ocean Explorer Map,8; Woodland Explorer Map,9 |type= Miscellaneous |description=The output has the same map center as the input map, and the same [[monument]], [[woodland mansion]] or [[buried treasure]] marker.

Its [[Map item format#map_<#>.dat format|map item entry]] is identical to that of a normal map, except that by the time the player sees it, its <code>colors</code> byte array is pre-filled with explorer maps' characteristic land-water boundary lines and water shading. <div class="treeview"> It should be noted that this additional data is stored in the Cartographer's NBT data and in the inventory item's NBT data, and not in the map file (e.g. <samp>map_0.dat</samp>). If the [[player]] were to use the {{cmd|give}} command to give themselves a map with the same map ID as an existing explorer map, it would still have the Ocean Monument or the Woodland Mansion icon on the map, but it would simply be named "Map" instead of, for example, "Ocean Explorer Map". * {{nbt|compound}} Item data ** {{nbt|compound|tag}}: *** {{nbt|compound|display}}: How the map looks in an item slot. See also [[Player.dat_format#Display Properties]]. **** {{nbt|string|Name}}: The name the map is given.

Buried treasure explorer maps do not use a color code. *** {{nbt|list|Decorations}}: **** {{nbt|compound}}: One of these for each icon on the map. Explorer maps always have at least one representing their target. ***** {{nbt|string|id}}: An arbitrary unique string identifying the decoration. For explorer map target structures, this is "+". ***** {{nbt|double|rot}}: The rotation of the icon.

Also, if two cartographers unlock the explorer map trades approximately at the same place and at the same time, the map locations are usually identical. This sometimes also happens when finding multiple treasure maps from [[ocean ruins]]. * Explorer maps fill as the [[chunk]]s are generated, rather than when the [[player]] holds them while in the area; leaving an explorer map while exploring the area still fills the map. * Buried treasure explorer maps are named ''Buried Treasure Map'' {{in|java}} while {{in|bedrock}}, they are named ''Treasure Map''. * It is possible for a cartographer to give a monument or woodland mansion explorer map for areas where the [[generated structures|structures]] would have spawned in the world, but were unable to as a result of terrain generation. As a result, explorer maps, unfortunately, don't always guarantee that a structure exists at the purported location. This is most common with woodland mansion explorer maps, due to its generation algorithm. * On [[Bedrock Edition]], inventory editors and add-ons can be used to create Explorer Maps that lead to any structure. == Gallery == <gallery> File:Explorer Maps.png|An ocean explorer map in the [[off-hand]], a woodland explorer map in the main hand, and a [[cartographer]] [[villager]] in between them.
