Create a new world

You can create new worlds with the /world create <key> command.
There are three options generator, type, and preset.
If you don't specify any of these options, the default world settings will be used.

Example

Creating a new world with the default settings:

/world create my_new_world

Using a world generator plugin

To generate a new world using a custom generator, use the command
/world create <key> generator <generator> [<dimension>] [<structures>] [<seed>]
The generator argument takes the name of the plugin that provides the custom chunk generator or biome provider.

Example

PlotSquared generation example:

/world create city:plots generator PlotSquared

Defining the world type

To generate a new world using a predefined world type, use the command
/world create <key> type <type> [<dimension>] [<structures>] [<seed>]

World types denote the type of world you want to create.
The following types are available:

• minecraft:noise - The default world generation.
• minecraft:flat - A superflat world.
• minecraft:large_biomes - All biomes are larger.
• minecraft:amplified - Generates amplified terrain.
• minecraft:fixed - Uses one specified biome everywhere.
• minecraft:debug - Debug all block states.

Example

Amplified world example:

/world create amplified_test_world type minecraft:amplified

Using a flat world preset

To generate a new world using an existing preset, use the command
/world create <key> preset <preset> [<dimension>] [<structures>] [<seed>]

World presets are a way to create worlds with specific settings.
Here you can find a list of available presets.

Available Dimensions

There are following dimensions types:

• minecraft:overworld - The primary dimension.
• minecraft:the_nether - The Nether dimension.
• minecraft:the_end - The End dimension.

Additional options

All of the above commands also support the following additional options:

• [<structures>] - Controls whether structures generate in the world. Defaults to true.
• [<seed>] - Sets the world seed. If not provided, a random seed will be used.
