BIOMES:
Volcanic Caves - Lava filled caves that house some great rewards but far greater risk. Also contains a new custom block called the geyser block, which launches you high in the air.
Splattered Caves - Standard caves with much more frequent placement of andesite, diorite, and granite.

Lush Dripstone Cave - A mix of the two vanilla cave biomes
Tropical Caves - Under the jungle biome a new cave generates that houses ancient temples and lush forests. Be weary as it houses some poisonous secrets.
Icy Caves - Found under mountains and cold biomes, these caves prove treacherous, from the slippery floors to the ever-present danger of powder snow. Extra ores and cave systems can be revealed by looking through layers of ice. It also spawns strays.
Fungal Caves - A packed lush environment that features giant mushrooms and other ancient plants. Explore these caves guided by the light of shroomlights and navigate through this dense undergound jungle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GEYSER DISCLAIMER:
If you are using Cavernous on a server, you must have command blocks enabled. This is only
so the geysers can generate and does not give anyone access to command blocks. You can do
this by going to the server.properties file and setting "enable-command-block" to true.
You also cannot use other datapacks that unlock all recipes since it breaks certain features.
An alternative datapack can be found here: https://wasdbuildteam.website/data-packs/unlock-all-recipes/
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATING FROM OLD CAVERNOUS VERSION:
In order to update from a version released before Minecraft 1.20, you must delete the old
Cavernous datapack in your world's datapack folder and then put in the new datapack (the
one this read me belongs to) and drag the "CavernousCompatibility.zip" from the same folder
into the datapack folder as well. You only have to do this once, every other time you upgrade
to a new version the compatibility pack will still work.
