If you want turn a large amount of block, like log to stripped log, dirt to pathblock, cobweb to string, dirt to farmland, etc, It would definitely take a lot of time if it were placed and then destroyed manually, what if we can just put it in crafting grid?, simpler and efficient, of course the tools doest disappear, the durability just got reduced a little.
Currently, ruined portal just have 1 biome variant, nether wastes. That is very boring, So I made a concept where ruined portals can spawn with other nether biome infections, and each nether biome has different loot, And if you fix the portal, you will appear in the nether biome according to the biome in the ruined portal, so this can be a clue to the nether biome nearby without having to go to the nether.
You know, if there is an azalea tree, it means, below, there is a lush cave, and if there are sulfur springs, it means there are sulfur caves below, but why other cave biome like deep dark and dripstone caves doesn't have a "Surface Marker" too?
New Nether Structure Concept
Twisting Vine is used for players to climb from the 2nd floor to the 3rd floor, And pillager outpost has sub-structures like scarecrow and iron golem cage, for piglin outpost, the sub-structure is a small nether wart farm.
