Village structures

Village buildings and farms never generate "floating", instead a platform of blocks generates beneath the building in a square or circular shape. The platform is made out of natural blocks such as grass, sand, sandstone, dirt, stone, and gravel.

Structure blocks can be used to manually load pieces of the village from the /data/structures/village folder in minecraft.jar. To do so, set a structure block to Load mode, enter village/<folder>/<structure_name>, and press LOAD. For example, village/plains/houses/plains_small_house_5

Snowy taiga villages don't have their own architecture, but uses the same buildings as taiga village, although any full block with sky view will be covered by top snow and water replaced by ice.

Villager spawned on these village will be based on the biome where it spawned instead of the village's type. For example, if some plains village houses generate in a neighbouring swamp biome, the villagers spawned there will have the swamp skin variant instead of plains.
