Hi everyone, I've been tooling around with Forge the past couple of days, and I've found I'm much more interested in messing around with the rules around stuff that's already part of the game, rather than trying to make entirely new content.
Right now I've been playing around with making nether biomes spawn in the overworld and I managed to do that, but when I start adding in nether monsters to spawn in it wither skeletons and blazes only spawn at night, while pigmen and magma cubes can spawn anytime (I'm assuming this is due to them being passive mobs until provoked, so they're handled differently in the logic) how would I go about making a custom biome where vanilla enemies can spawn at any time of day?
My second question is, how would I go about generating a nether fortress in this custom biome? Whenever I look for structure tutorials it's just for making a custom structure, and that structure will be the same every time. I'd like to have a nether fortress generate the way it would in the Nether. I've poked around the Hell world gen files but I'm a bit lost on that front.
Feel free to point me towards any relevant tutorials I've missed that answer this one for me!
As for version - technically i want to use this with friends who still play 1.12, but since that's out of date I'll go ahead and try to get this working in 1.14, then try to backdate it from there.
