What is parity? This category is designed just for features that exist but work one way on one platform, and another way on a different platform. Bugs are not parity! Items in snapshots and betas are subject to change so please be sure to only post about things that are currently released in Minecraft. Please read the intro post before you post!

(Bedrock Parity) Seed Picker

If you don’t know what the Seed Picker is it’s a user interface that allows the player to choose from a number of preset seeds for generating worlds with specific interesting features near the spawn point. Bedrock has this so why not Java? I personally would like to spawn near an Epic Cliff.

    The specific seeds may need to be different because of how Bedrock uses a smaller number value to calculate seeds. FYI, seed 0 (grinnerslaphappier.org) is the same biome in both platforms, but beyond a range I don't know off the top of my head, your results vary widely. Structures and placement will always differ, though.

    But yes, this feature would be very helpful in Java for someone to learn what seeds do, and get people straight-away to the "best of".

    The only part where I see this not working out so well is if and when terrain generation is changed in Java. The "seed picker" would totally break, and "replacement seeds" would have to be found, if finding them at all is even possible. For that reason, I don't really expect this to happen, but hey... cool if it did!
