🏗️ The Generator System

A new world with the BlatBlock world type:

• The BlatBlock Generator appears at (0, 0, 0)
• The world is completely void except for your starting platform

How It Works

• The generator places blocks from your selected layer above itself
• Each layer contains different blocks and entities with varying spawn chances
• Progress through layers by collecting enough blocks to unlock the next tier

Available Content

• See which blocks and mobs are available at your current layer
• Preview Next Layers: Check what becomes available as you progress
• Layer Switching: Unlock and switch between different layers
• Progression System: Each layer requires a certain number of mined blocks to access

🚀 AutoGenerator Block

Three tiers of generators:

• Basic – iron-based, slow, simple recipe
• Improved – diamond accents, faster operation
• Perfect – netherite construction, maximum performance
• Creative

Generator Upgrades

Four upgrade types that improve generator behavior:

• Speed Upgrade – increases tick rate
• Fortune Upgrade – increases output quantity
• Tag Upgrade – controls tag filtering
• Entity Upgrade – enables mob drops
• Stack Upgrade - increases maximum stack

💍 Magical Rings
