Structure Spread Tweaks
by YouSeeKenny
Structure Spread Tweaks lets modpack authors change how far apart vanilla and modded random-spread structures generate, so exploration-focused packs can cut down on density.
What it does
The mod gives control over how often structures appear. A global spread factor sets the distance between structures for the whole world, while separate toggles decide whether vanilla structure sets, modded structure sets or both are affected. Each structure set can also receive its own custom override, so a single village or temple type can be spaced differently from the rest.
Changes can be made through the in-game configuration screen, which is reached from Mod Menu and is built on Cloth Config. Settings take effect on the next world load or after a datapack reload. An optional salt replacement, keyed to each structure's identifier, can reduce overlap between structures that share the same spacing. Existing chunks are not regenerated, so changes are tested on new chunks in a new world after deleting generated chunks.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License as open source, with files for Fabric only, covering 26.1 – 26.1.2. Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are required dependencies.
Key features
Global spread factor
One value scales the spacing of random-spread structures across the world, applied to vanilla and modded sets alike.
Separate toggles
Vanilla structure sets and modded structure sets can each be switched on or off, so only the chosen groups are adjusted.
Per-structure overrides
Individual structure sets and structures accept custom spacing values that replace the global setting for those entries.
Optional salt replacement
An identifier-based salt can be substituted for the default one, which helps structures placed by different mods overlap less.
In-game configuration
Options are edited through Mod Menu with Cloth Config, and changes apply on the next world load or datapack reload.

How it compares
No Village is server-side only, released under the MIT License as open source, and covers 26.1 – 26.1.1 on Fabric, so players can join without installing it, while Structure Spread Tweaks needs both sides. Advanced Locate is client and server, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.20.1 – 26.2 on Fabric, a wider range than this mod's 26.1 – 26.1.2. F3 Structure is client-side only, is not open source, and targets 26.2 alone.
