[1.8] 3 questions about biomes

[Failender]

Hello everyone,

I found myself with 3 questions I cant solve and hope for answers.

 

1.How can I find out which biome the player is currently in?

 

2. Is there a "gud way" to find out that the player has entered a different biome? (Of course u could save his last biome and check that every tick but that feels dirty)

 

3. Is it possible to set a biome? Like ingame change the biome type of an area to sth different?

 

Any ideas are appreciated

1. World#getBiomeGenForCoords(BlockPos)

2. That's the only way I know of.

3. All things are possible, but why would you do that? Are you planning to completely regenerate the chunk(s)?

Thanks for the first answers, helped a lot!

 

Yeah. I want to have a machine taking a chunk out of the world and transporting it anywhere, so changing the biome type would be great
