## Configuration Guide for Biome Groups

{% code title="Example Biome group" %}

```yaml
Arid:
  - BADLANDS
  - DESERT
  - ERODED_BADLANDS
  - WOODED_BADLANDS
```

{% endcode %}

## Steps to Create Your Own Biome Group:

### 1. Choose a Group Name:

Decide on a name for your biome group. \
This name is arbitrary and can be anything that helps you identify the group.

```yaml
GroupName:
# GroupName can be arbitrary chosen.
```

### 2. List the Biomes:

Under the group name, list the biomes that belong to this group.&#x20;

```yaml
GroupName:
  - BIOME1
  - BIOME2
  - BIOME3
```

{% hint style="info" %}
To use non-vanilla biomes, reference them by their correct namespace. \
For example, for a biome from the Terralith Datapack, use `terralith:moonlight_valley`
{% endhint %}
