I have wet sand and would like it to generate in sand which is near water. If there is a way to do this, it will make biomes look much nicer.

Thanks in advance :D

I'm not entirely sure if anything can be done definitively yet, at least not until we get advanced generation conditions, but one thing I can think of is forcing the block to spawn at default sea level and replace sand, or if you're going the route of ponds you could make structures of ponds surrounded by the sand. Just spitballing really, but I hope this was at least a bit useful.

I am going the route of ponds, however structures (especially structures that are part of the terrain) don’t look/work, as they will be too deep, floating, and other weird things. Thanks anyways though
