There is already a "shouldGenerateStructures" but no generateStructures like the same way shouldGenerateSurface and generateSurface .... If there is no specific reason it could be a new feature to the ChunkGenerator API |

Blockpopulators are part of the biome-decoration process and the structure generation is called. It doesnt feel completed when some methods are missing just because there is something old already. The missing function(s) can be used for directly generate code in the ChunkGenerator and for smaller things it should be preffered to add things directly there i guess i dont know when what part of the generation is called. the only thing that is documented is: but generating Decoration or Structures is not part of them and maybe should get added to the list (if possible) to clarify the API usage a bit |

I initially didn't add this method, when writing the newer chunk generation api, because, if I remember correctly, it does not give any more freedom. Since you more or less would access the same data as when using the BlockPopulator. To make this function useful there should also be a way to set / remove / modify the structure bounding boxes. |
