About Better Watchtowers
From ModrinthThis mod adds vanilla friendly watchtowers as structures.
Better Watchtowers
Better Watchtowers adds two Watchtowers to Minecraft Java 1.20.1 [Forge], making the world a more exciting place to explore. All structures contain loot. In this first version, Better Watchtowers is still in testing, since these structures can generate very close or far from each other, and loot is still to be improved.
Current Watchtowers:
- Forest Watchtower;
- Abandoned Watchtower.
Structures spawn in any Taiga biome.
!! Made specifically for the Winter Survival modpack. !!
