Latitude-Biome-Authority — Детерминированное распределение биомов в Minecraft

--- name: latitude-biome-authority description: > Authoritative list of all vanilla Minecraft biomes and the latitude bands they are allowed to generate in for the Latitude (Globe) mod. This skill forbids guessing, omission, or reassignment of biomes and serves as the single source of truth for biome inclusion and climate eligibility. --- # Latitude Biome Authority — Vanilla Minecraft (Java 1.21.11) _Generated: 2026-01-31_ ## RULES (MANDATORY) - Every vanilla biome listed here **must exist** in at least one valid generation path. - Windsurf must **never invent, remove, or reassign** biomes outside this table. - If a biome is missing in-world, the cause is **tag omission or logic error**, not intentional rarity. - **Latitude bands are authoritative**; variants and overlays are secondary. - **Rarity is a design knob**, not a probability guarantee. - Caves, rivers, oceans, Nether, and End biomes are **not latitude-decided unless explicitly stated**. - Mountain / peak biomes are **overlays** and may restrict placement but **must not override latitude truth**. --- ## Latitude Bands * **Equator** — hottest + wettest * **Tropics** — hot + wet-ish * **Arid** — hot + dry * **Temperate** — mild * **Subpolar** — cold * **Polar** — coldest **Overlay: Mountain / Peaks** Only allowed when “mountainness” is true (height, slope, or climate params), regardless of latitude. --- ## Plains / general land | Biome | Band(s) | Rarity | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Plains | Temperate | Common | Core mid-latitude flatland. | | Sunflower Plains | Temperate | Rare | Rare plains variant. | | Savanna | Arid ↔ Tropics | Uncommon | Warm transition biome. | | Savanna Plateau | Arid / Tropics | Uncommon | Highland warm biome. | | Snowy Plains | Subpolar | Common | Main cold flatland. | | Ice Spikes | Polar | Very rare | Cold extreme. | | Mushroom Fields | Any (special) | Very rare | Special-case island biome;
