DAG Mod

What's New in v1.8.2

Disclaimer: There is a bug with the /Seasons function that will at every tick cause the seasons to go into the next one and annoyingly flood the chat with messages. Please do not use that function. (Fixed in v1.9.0)

Village NPC Structures

7 standalone NPC buildings now generate across plains, forest, and taiga biomes. Each is an independent structure locatable with /locate structure dagmod:<name>:

• village_inn — traveller's rest stop
• village_tavern — drinks and rumours
• village_shop_1 / village_shop_2 — general goods
• village_traders_1 — roaming merchant stall
• village_jeweler — gems and fine wares
• village_blacksmith — weapons and repairs

Buildings share a placement grid (spacing ~256 blocks) so you'll find a mix of types within a reasonable exploration radius.

Note: Structures only generate in newly explored chunks. Use /locate structure dagmod:village_inn (or any building name) to find the nearest one.

Bug Fixes

• Dynamic lighting terrain not updating — Held-item lighting now correctly illuminates terrain blocks as you move. The chunk rebuild system was calling setSectionRangeDirty with raw block coordinates instead of section coordinates (1 section = 16 blocks), marking chunks near the world origin as dirty instead of chunks around the player
• Village NPC structure set not loading — The old jigsaw setup referenced a missing village_docks.nbt, causing the entire village structure set to silently fail on world init. /locate structure dagmod:village_npc would always return no results. Replaced with 7 individual structures

---

Changes

• Hall of Champions rarity — Spacing increased 40→64 chunks, separation 12→20. Halls are now ~2.5× rarer (one per ~1024 blocks vs ~640 blocks)
• Village exclusion zones — Hall exclusion radius around villages reduced 15→8 chunks; bone dungeon exclusion 12→6 chunks
