If you want to propose a change to an existing structure (like villages), or add something brand new in a current dimension or biome, this is the place.

(Underground) structures and caves

Mine shaft improvements:

  1. Break rooms. this it where miners went to smelt ores, take a break, or to fix their tools. This new room comes complete with loot, a map of the mine shaft, a crafting table, a furnace, and a skull! great for moments when you run out of food, tools, resources, and sanity!
  2. Replace gravel with wood planks to keep the mine shaft looking nice.
  3. Add occasional skulls laying on the floor here and there for dramatic effect.

 

Stronghold improvements:

  1. Increase endermen spawn rate in and around the stronghold's chunks, including inside the stronghold.
  2. Add a super rare loot room with 5 silverfish spawners under the lava below the portal. It's got to have good loot with that security!
  3. Add a bed room. If theirs a library, someone must have lived there. More on this in the post I made in "Villagers, NPC, Humanoids"

 

Hot springs:

Hot springs can be found on the surface, attached to a cave system, or in it's own little pocket, but are rare. This special water can regenerate your health as you step into the warm, soothing, pool of relaxation. It will also cool into "Cooled spring water" after a while when you put it into a bucket or bottle, but can be reheated in a furnace. Now I want to take my own soothing bath!

    Love the Hot Springs idea! We definitely need more lake variants.

    Each of these should be their own post, as they're three very different ideas.  I like the idea of replacing gravel in the abandoned mineshaft ceiling with planks, as that would absolutely be something the miners would have shored up.  What are these skulls?  Are they existing mob heads (eg. skeleton) or are they new items?  If they are new items, do they have any purpose other than decoration?

    I don't particularly see a need for even more Stronghold rooms.  I also don't necessarily see the connection between there being a library and the stronghold being a habitation.  Libraries can be personal, but they can also be curated for a wider audience, either general or select.  In fact, libraries as large as are found in the strongholds are more likely to not be private libraries.  A higher endermen spawn rate is interesting.

    You should be able to keep hot spring water hot if you move it to a new place.  Maybe lava within three blocks of a source block of hot spring water keeps that water hot or heat up cooled water.

     

    (If this is at all based on my big Mythos series, all of the suggestions there were in the context of the new dimension suggestion and are very much interdependent.  Many of the suggestions are there as ideas to flesh out the general dimension suggestion as much as concrete sugestions in their own right.  These ideas are for the existing dimensions and most seem to be generally related at best.  Some do seem to be connected but ended up in different posts because of the sectioned nature of the site.  They should probably at least be divided up by the categories you already made.  I know it's hard to know where to break things up.)

    I like the ideas of replacing gravel with wood (possibly with a support made from cobblestone walls), having Enderman spawn more frequently in strongholds, and a bedroom for the strongholds.  The skulls and silverfish seem a little unnecessary.

    Interesting idea with hot springs and skulls along with increasing enderman spawn rate, would be helpful for farming.
