Trivia
- In Superflat World type, the Void appears sky color from above Y coordinate 0. However, when viewed from below this coordinate, the Void appears it's normal black color. When viewing the Void from above layer zero, it appears the same color as the sky. However, dropping below that will return it to it's normal color of black.
