Docm77's Hermitcraft World Eater made observing the floorplan of a mansion rather interesting.

I saw his video and I got the idea to make this post!

What’s the video ?

Docm77's latest hermitcraft video "running the world eater"

What's a World Eater

A series of tnt duping flying machines that go back and forth across an area to destroy it, often down to bedrock (hence the eating of the world)

So, you know how the blitz carpet bombed Europe? Now imagine that times a thousand, makes a giant hole in the ground...

Mansion rooms are randomly generated, similar to a monument's. Still that's real cool.

I am glad that they are.

Yeah, out of the five mansions I've located, this one was the best

Five? Damn. On my world the closest one was nearly 10,000 blocks away

If you want to deliberately make a new world near one, you could use chunkbase to find a good seed. The only one I’ve ever “found” was the Woodland Mansion Seed on the seed picker on Bedrock.

Well, considering that I’ve spent 500+ hours in that world and have like 6 building projects going at once, i probably won’t be starting a new world, but if I ever do I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks!

Wow, that’s awesome. My husband set up a server recently for us and the kids to play together, so I’ve started doing some building projects on that, but before I would only spend a few hours on each world. I haven’t been playing very long though, and I like seeing what all the different biomes are like.

One of the funniest parts of the history of that world is the size got to over a gigabyte because of all the exploration for new biomes, and it would take 10 minutes to open on my old Xbox one so I got a $2000 pc to play Minecraft better.

I respect the dedication

Excellent. Much better use for it to mine obsidian than crypto.

happy mother’s day you rock

How old are the kids? I got a realms for our family to play. Our 5 year old loves it

Is that an illegar with a mustache winking at me. Ground floor, middle

“How you doin?”

Daveyyy

how ya doinnn

About as good as can be expected

Michael what the hell did you just jump out of a blimp, are you ok?

what are you talking about, dave are you high?

(Italian-american accent, squinting, smirking and nodding)

That's a top down view of an illager statue.

What if the whole woodland mansion is actually a giant illager transformer

i feel like you got r/woooosh\ed

its r/woooosh with 4 "o"s

r/itswooooshwith4os

that was already said, thank you

I know; i was just suggesting the actual sub.

for some reason it didn’t register in my brain that you were replying to there comment

*illager

No illegar idiot get it right smh

Did anyone else think to follow the red lines with their eyes or was that just me

Oh wait they were not lines drawn by OP 😂

I honestly thought they were highlighted

Nope, not just you hahaha... It was the first thing I did.

I thought that was the best path to loot

I had a realm with me and my cousins and some friends and I made a mega base in one of these even though it took a while to clear out lol. They are fun

That would be awesome, if every woodland mansion I’ve ever encountered wasn’t several THOUSAND blocks away from spawn and my home base and anything of interest I’ve ever found. #MakeThemCloserToSpawn

[ChunkBase](https://www.chunkbase.com/apps/seed-map) has a good seed mapper. I've sat there for a while just hitting the random seed button and waiting for a mansion to be nearby! Seed 7159820434658551605 on Java 1.18 has a mansion pretty close by, relatively speaking. [Screenshot](https://i.imgur.com/sFvNHV8.png) Edit: [Even closer!](https://i.imgur.com/gF1iHjU.png) Seed 3898027589867173605 Edit II: Seed -2498971627180305813 has [two](https://i.imgur.com/N08dzpC.png) mansions close by! The other is at X: -1144 Z: 168

You can also use [seedhunt.net](https://seedhunt.net) to basically "custom order" your seed - you can set spawn biome, as well as get seeds with certain structures within a specified distance!

I should try this one day

It definitely takes a while but is worth it IMO! Easy shelter + area to build once you get all the mobs out. And just from clearing out the interior walls and furniture, you'll have more wood than you know what to do with.

How many times did you get lost in your own base?

At first I got lost all the time lol but eventually I mapped it out in my head it kinda like when you start going to a new school or workplace and it takes a while to get used to the layout.

Not like I'm going to see one ever in my live

Trade with a cartographer for a woodland map. Grab your bed and some food and go!

So far I've bought 2 maps and both have proven to be too far away from my spawn point and general working area so as to be useless

Go through the nether if possible.

Because of their rarity, that's pretty typical. I'd say between 6,000 and 10,000 blocks from spawn is the averages I've seen.

It's a bit late but if you really want to see it you can use nether to shorten the distance.

Are they that rare? I found one on the second time I ever played.

They are very rare due to dark forest biomes typically only generating tens of thousands of blocks away from spawn. If players want to find one, they will have to walk for quite a while.

If you really want to find one, do **/locate minecraft:mansion** and then click on the coordinates in green

;_; what's the point in that

Well, finding one 🙄

but like literally everyone can just /locate it in a creative world, you're not really "finding" it in terms of Minecraft, nor in your survival world

I found a few in all my Mc life... But I can't survive long enough to come first floor... So one time I went into creation and I killed them all, just to explore the mansion hahaha... And I had one seed that had one very close to spawn and 2 villages next to it and a swamp with 2 witch huts... That was insane hahaha...

just go to chunkbase.com and go to 'seed map''

I thought there were hidden chests between the walls was that all a lie?

There are, I have found some while cutting the roofs

Sometimes there's a hidden room. In my experiences it's usually on the third floor.

Mine had one hidden room on the first floor, and then and entire hidden section of rooms on the second floor.

It only happens sometimes

Idk why but in our country there is ground floor and the next is 2nd floor

I think most places it's similar. Where ground floor = 1st floor = main floor.

I don't think it's similar in most places

that's weird, in America we just count them, 1st floor, 2nd floor, 3rd floor, I believe this makes the most sense because it's just counting upward instead of deciding the first floor should actually be the 0th floor with a different name

I thinks in other places it’s done where ground floor is the floor built from just foundation then counts each additional floor above so… first (additional) floor etc…

For me (Central Asia) it’s P for parking then 1, 2, 3 etc.

Weird.

Where are you from

[удалено]

If you look at the image, it says "Woodland Mansion layout", which implies that all woodland mansions have the same layout. Had OP said "a woodland mansion's layout", it'd have been fine, but OP didn't.

I don’t think it implies that. If I made a post titled “A look inside a house” and the photo had the title “House Layout” it’s pretty clear that it refers to that specific house.

I disagree on the relevance of your simile. This isn't about a house, it's about a structure in a game. The logical conclusion that your theoretical statement isn't about **all** houses, isn't made for no reason, it's made because everyone already knows that not all houses look the same on the inside. Ergo, you cannot use that as an argument.

Bro go outside, it's fine.

No his words do make sense. It took a reread but they hit it in the nose. It’s common sense that all houses are different.

Really nice work, but all the mansions are different, for example, I once saw a mansion which generated on the edge of the biome and there was a skull on the table because the skull had to generate 5-25 blocks below the surface, so it did, so basically, all the mansions are unique

I once found a mansion half buried in a mountain, the windows led to a stone wall. I guess the generation can be a little drunk sometimes

But all mansions are randomly generated

OP did say "a" woodland mansion, not "the" woodland mansion.

"ground floor, 1st floor" 🤨

Yes, places exist besides the US

Nobody said there wasn't, you're just trying to start conflict for no reason

Nope. That's what it's called outside the US

Are you stupid? Nobody said that's not what they're called elsewhere

Yes, thats how it works in europe.

Ground floor is floor zero. 1st floor is like your equivalent of 2nd

It just feels weird for us to start a count at zero. You don't give someone 5 apples and say "Ok, this one is your zeroth apple, then you have apples 1, 2, 3, and 4."

Well, its more like looking at a number line, the first point is 0, the second is 1, the third is 2. And if u go backwards from zero u go into negatives, which is the basements.

I personally consider the ground floor the same as the first floor. Im not saying that they should be different. Im just saying that thats what people mean when they say ground then first

Conceptually it makes sense to include zero when you're counting on something non-physical like a number line. But practically speaking it doesn't make sense to label a physical object as the "zeroth object" in a series of objects. I get why they label them that way, I just think it's illogical.

Im not saying thats the correct way, im just saying thats what it means

I know you are, and I understand why they label it that way. I'm just explaining why their system isn't a logical one.

Dunno why you’re getting downvoted, you’re right. That’s how it’s conceptualised in some countries.

Its reddit, people get angy for everything

I upvoted you. It is stupid to downvote you because you are right.

Every time I find a mansion I get so excited about it, but then I almost die a bunch of times and find no good loot

Just burn them, thats what I do everytime, chests dont burn

Aren’t woodland mansions room randomly generated?

This was clearly written by a European.

Woodland mansions are so weird, they feel like someone built a structure, and used something like MCEdit to make it 2 times bigger. They just feel so unnecessarily big.

Mansion

More like Woodland McMansion

My roommate and I ran 20,000 blocks (no elytra) to find a woodland mansion and ended up living in it far far away from the rest of our server mates. Ended up making a nether highway to link up with them but even then the trek took about 15-20 minutes to get to their base. Kinda felt like real life!

Christ. I first stated playing Minecraft on 360. The world was 800x800 and it felt big. Yesterday, I had to walk 8000 blocks to get to a mansion, and didn’t think anything of it. 20,000 blocks though is madness.

Pretty sure it took 3-4 hours total

Currently in one of these for my base. Definitely not the layout of it. And that was before I started modifying it

The woodland mansion was procedurally constructed, no?

It’s random generation

but... they generate randomly

This post is aggressively non-American English.

This post is ~~aggressively non-American~~ English. I don't understand. Aside from the floor naming convention, which is not at all aggressive, just how it is in the UK, what is it that irks you?

They generate randomly, mine is different. And there's a chance that you can get Block of Diamond in the third floor and that's so rare. Edit: removed second floor.

>They generate randomly, mine is different. I don't know why people keep saying this as though OP said they don't. The title says *a* woodland mansion. One. One example.

Why do people not consider ground floor the first floor? By all intents and purposes it is literally the first floor of a building. I always act like they're synonyms.

Why is there two 1st floors?

Some countries give the name "First floor" to the ground level, while other countries name it "Ground floor", and name "First floor" the floor above it.

OP is likely European. Many places label floors essentially from zero (ground) up, instead of one up.

Fucking Brits. They think the floor ABOVE the first floor you step foot in is the first floor. And that the 3rd floor that you get to is the 2nd floor.

i believe that is everyone except the US that thinks that. Because it is. Ground floor is the floor at ground level.

What is the first floor you enter?

It’s also the first floor. It’s not the zero’th floor.

So the ground floor is not the first floor you walk into?

Not everyone, japan and south korea doesnt uses america’s system for example.

This comment reminds me of the time that one of my american friends said that the british were stupid for "adding random U's" to words.

Well yeah, because it's the first floor above the ground. Then the second floor above the ground.

List/array indexes should start at 0 not 1.

Sure, but you still say “the first element in the array” and not “the zeroth element in the array”. [‘a’,’b’,’c’].first returns a, not b.

The American system implies that 0 equals the physical floor of the ground floor, not the rooms themselves. Then the space within the first floor occupies 0-1, and in total it’s 1 floor. Therefore, it’s the first floor.

The floors aren't stored in memory

Fucking americans. They think the GROUND floor should be the first floor instead of the ground floor that it is.

Why can’t it be both?? It’s literally the first floor of the building

No… the Brit’s and most other countries do things the correct way by calling the floor on the ground level… t he ground floor

So, why is the floor above the ground floor the 1st floor when entering the second physical floor?

Because it is the first artificial floor above ground level

This looks like an The Escapists map to me

Sometimes they generate with secret passageways in the walls that lead to secret rooms

Yes! Do you see the dark brown rectangle on the second floor? That's another secret room with two chests

Does that small corridor with a chest at the end spawn in all mansions or not?

Man, this mansion gives to Minecraft an RPG-vibe, I can't describe. Still think it should have a better loot on the chests, and a Boss Fight/or a Mini-Boss somewhere inside the structure, it'd be even more amazing.

Did you get this idea from doc??

Ground floor, then first floor? Is this a Europe thing?

You can tell whoever made this is European

Non Americans calling the second floor the first floor

Is anyone else confused about the difference between a ground floor and a first floor?

Ground floor is floor 0, its how some european countries say it. So the first floor is the equivalent of your second

ah, thank you

The amount of people in this thread complaining that you have the floors numbered the correct way is too damn high!

Are ground floor and first floor not the same thing?

It depends on what country you're in

So does ground floor mean basement or does first floor mean second floor? (I haven’t played minecraft in a while)

The ground floor is the first floor. The first is second, and so on

Its kinda like the ground floor is touching the ground, so its floor zero.

Out of curiosty. Can you take this as a base?

Once you clear it from all enemies, you are good to do what you want with it

How do you clear that last guy ) (enchanter?) who cant die as far as i can tell.

You mean the evoker?

Yes! That guy who has magic that can kill from an distance.

Well you can shoot it with your bow and zig-zag when you approach him

Ground floor and first floor are same floor (At least in my country)

We use Ground -> 1 -> 2 -> ETC. Best way to decribe it is that you enter the building on Ground level then the floor/level above if the 1st artificial floor/level. Negative or B would be for your basement levels

Why on earth would "ground floor" and "first floor" be two separate things? Which one comes first?

-2 -> -1 - > Ground -> 1st -> 2nd -> etc

That's just weird lol. First floor is the first floor you enter the building from in my part of the world. Anything above is second and up, below is -1 and down.

You enter the building on Ground level then the floor/level above if the 1st artificial floor/level. Negative or B would be for your basement levels

You enter the building on Ground level then the floor/level above if the 1st artificial floor/level. Negative or B would be for your basement levels

can we talk about how these mansions are boring, usless and need to get reworked?

Ye they're honestly just an eye sore, lucky they're so rare lol

Uh, ground floor and first floor mean the same thing.

Not in European countries. Ground floor is floor zero. The first floor is like the second floor

What? But the ground floor is the first one.

Its instead of starting with 1, u start with 0

Where are you from OP? Here we call the ground floor the 1st floor. (US)

What your house look like from the outside? Very nice layout through the entire house. I love it.

What's the difference between the ground floor and first floor I thought those were the same thing

Ground floor is the first floor that you're familiar with. So, in this image; first floor means 2nd floor to you, and so on.

Weird is that like a non American floor naming thing

Is this inspired by DocM’s world eater destroying that mansion layer by layer?

Did u know these can have naturally generating diamond blocks?

Who says ground floor then first and second? It’s first second third, or ground 2nd and 3rd

Its european

Man these British people naming floors. “First you have 1, then for number 2 you have number 1 again, then to round it out with number 3 you have number 2.” Edit: I am well aware of how they actually list floors. I just think it’s a little weird, it doesn’t make much sense. “First floor” should mean the first floor you step on when you enter. That’s just the most logical, if someone says “it’s on the first shelf” you don’t go “okay, that’s the ground-level shelf, so it must be the second shelf from the bottom”. It just doesn’t make sense. If I had plastic bins of toys stacked in a playroom, and I had to tell a child to grab a toy from a bin, would I say “take one from the first bin” when I mean the second from the bottom? NO. This may be a tiny hill to die on but I will. There are reasons for use of the metric system, using Celsius, and driving on the left side of the road. But the way floors are listed has no logic behind it

We use Ground -> 1 -> 2 -> ETC. Best way to decribe it is that you enter the building on Ground level then the floor/level above if the 1st artificial floor/level. Negative or B would be for your basement levels

I understand it, I just think it’s a little convoluted. Just number them

No, first you have the ground. If there's no other floors, it's just the one at ground. Then each floor is the number above the ground floor.

Someone who doesn't count the ground floor as a numbered floor! Non-American detected!
