Deposits

Note: EE does not come with any pre-configured deposits, and therefore creation of deposits should be completely done by the modpack developer from scratch.

  • Locate the emendatusenigmatica\deposit config folder inside the root config folder.

  • Create a *.json file inside this folder for each deposit you wish to add to the game.

  • You can create multiple deposits for the same material with different generation options.

Below you will find a more detailed break down of the Deposit Data object, and a brief explanation of each data field. An example of a complete deposit file can be found here.

Deposit Core module:

REQUIRED FIELD
"type": string // example: "type": "emendatusenigmatica:geode_deposit"

Determines the type of the deposit. At the moment, there are 5 available deposit types: "emendatusenigmatica:vanilla_deposit"

"emendatusenigmatica:sphere_deposit"

"emendatusenigmatica:geode_deposit"

"emendatusenigmatica:dense_deposit"

"emendatusenigmatica:dike_deposit"

with more deposits planned for future updates.

REQUIRED FIELD
"dimension": string // example: "dimension": "minecraft:the_end"

Identifies in which dimension should this deposit generation take effect. You can obtain the dimension resource location in-game by using /execute in and a list of dimension resource locations will be available for you.

"biomes": [ string ] // example: "biomes": ["minecraft:dark_forest", "minecraft:plains", "minecraft:savanna"]

A list object which contains a list of strings of biomes (both vanilla, and modded) in which this deposit generation should occur.

Leaving this field empty will flag all this deposit dimension's biomes as a valid biome.

This list should contain either a list of biomes, or a signle biome tag.

REQUIRED FIELD
"registryName": string // example: "registryName": "vanilla_nether_uranium_deposit"

REQUIRED FIELD
"config": { object }

This JSON object houses the deposit configuration, and based on the type of the deposit provided, one of the following modules should be used;

Vanilla Deposit Config module:
