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
