A mod that lets you view the actual 3D biome grid. In Minecraft, biomes are stored on a smaller grid than that of
blocks. Each voxel of the biome grid is 4x4x4 in block-space. The game then uses some randomness to determine which
biome is actually used on biome borders. This is great for gameplay but maybe not so great for world generation
developers trying to accurately determine where their biomes are being placed
Press F3 + F6 to open the Debug Options screen, scroll down to the bottom of Debug Renderers, and change the
biome_grid renderer to either In Overlay to make it appear when the debug overlay is open, or Always to always
appear.
Additional keyboard controls exist to control the range and opacity of the biome grid renderer. See the Controls menu!
Biome Colors are determined the same way [jacobsjo's datapack map viewer][dpmap] does.
See the [documentation][biome-color-docs]. If no color is supplied then the color is determined from the biome's id.
