These are some of the settings for vanilla biomes for temperature and rain possibility, we may add the other generation settings in the future for vanilla biomes to this page.
Overworld
2023.1 and newer
These values have been obtained through the file manager by looking at the OverworldBiomeBuilder.java file.
Values now use ranges. A lower number on the index values is lower in the setting value, where higher values are more higher.
Weirdness is a bit hard to find any documentation on and there were only two settings at the bottom of the file that may or may not be accurate settings for what biomes use.
You can find how biomes are generated in the references below.

Weirdness ranges:
These values may not be accurate but were found at the bottom of the file, there is very little documentation on this setting at the moment so this is the best we can do for providing the possible values.
