# Strata

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

* Locate the <mark style="color:orange;">`emendatusenigmatica\strata`</mark> config folder inside the root config folder.
* Create a \*.json file inside this folder for each strata you wish to add to the game.

Below you will find a more detailed break down of the Strata Data object, and a brief explanation of each data field. An example of a complete strata file can be found [here](/emendatus-enigmatica-v2-wiki/examples.md#strata).

### Strata Core module:

{% code title="REQUIRED FIELD" %}

```json
"id": string // example: "id": "granite"
```

{% endcode %}

> Used for all registry naming conventions, and should be a unique identifier for each strata.

{% code title="REQUIRED FIELD" %}

```json
"baseTexture": string // example: "baseTexture": "minecraft:block/granite"
```

{% endcode %}

> A Resource Location string of the strata type's texture.

{% code title="REQUIRED FIELD" %}

```json
"suffix": string // example: "suffix": "granite"
```

{% endcode %}

> Used for ore registry and data generation of that specific strata.

{% code title="REQUIRED FIELD" %}

```json
"fillerType": string // example: "fillerType": "minecraft:granite"
```

{% endcode %}

> Used to determine a list of Strata for each ore generation feature.

{% code title="REQUIRED FIELD" %}

```json
"localizedName": string // example: "localizedName": "Granite"

```

> Determines the hardness of the strata ore block.

```json
"resistance": float // example: "resistance": 0.7
```

> Determines the resistance of the strata ore block.

```json
