How the End generates
End terrain is generated from noise around the origin: the central island is fixed, and the outer islands begin roughly 1000 blocks out. Biome choice follows distance from the centre rather than climate values.
- The central island always generates the same shape
- End cities only generate on outer islands with solid terrain
- End gateways link the central island to the outer ring
Structures
- End City — End cities hold shulkers, enchanted diamond gear and — in the attached end ship — elytra. They only generate on the outer end islands.
