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.
  • Slimes can spawn in the superflat world, as the ground level is only 4 blocks above the absolute bottom, and slimes can spawn in depths of 40 and below.
  • NPC Villages can appear in Superflat world type.
