How to spawn structure in flat world

[Nicholas Hammond]

I have watched several videos on the subject and read the code used for flat chunk generation and have narrowed down my issue to this bit of code which adds my world feature into the game. (The variable "feature" is the feature which I'd like to add)

for (Biome biome : ForgeRegistries.BIOMES.getValues()) {
            biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.SURFACE_STRUCTURES,
                    Biome.createDecoratedFeature(feature, IFeatureConfig.NO_FEATURE_CONFIG, Placement.NOPE, IPlacementConfig.NO_PLACEMENT_CONFIG));
        }

Yes, registration is working and this code is being recognized in game, but it will only spawn in non-flat worlds such as the overworld and nether. How do I solve this?

Sorry for duplicate posts but it seems that my question is not being assessed in the needed manner

Look at FlatChunkGenerator#func_202099_e. You'll have to hack into the fields it uses to populate the structures.

Thank you, this was the type of answer I was looking for I believe. How would I do this?

 

I'm not trying to spawn my structure in the actual flat world by the way, I have a custom dimension which uses FlatChunkGenerator so that's why I asked.

I ended up honestly replacing my FlatChunkGenerator with OverworldChunkGenerator because I couldn't find the solution

Okay so today I had the idea of copying the FlatChunkGenerator code and making a new modified generator based on the original code. What can I change from the FlatChunkGenerator code which can generate my structures? Can I copy any of the code from OverworldChunkGenerator since it allows me to generate structures? I also created a new copy of FlatGenerationSettings if that does anything.
