Structure Configurator
by alchemyyy
Structure Configurator gives server owners control over how far the game searches for structures and how randomly placed structures are spaced, for NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
Search spacing and separation settings are exposed in config files, so a server can tune the distance between structures placed on the random-spread grid. Structure search radii used by worldgen maps and the locate command can be adjusted as well, which changes how far a player's search reaches before it gives up.
The mod runs only on the server, so players join without installing anything. It keeps the structureconfigurator mod id, so setups that referenced that id continue to load. Structure diagnostics commands report how the structure settings resolve on the running server. Source code and an issue tracker are public. The project is open source under the MIT License, and the 1.0.0 NeoForge file for 1.21.1 was published on 2026-06-03.
Key features
Search spacing safety
Configuration options guard the spacing values used when structures are searched for, so a bad value does not break placement.
Search radius settings
Radii used by worldgen maps and the locate command can be set separately, changing how far a search reaches.
Random-spread separation
Spacing and separation values for random-spread structures can be changed to control how densely they generate.
Structure diagnostics commands
Commands report the structure settings in effect on the server, which helps when checking a configuration.
