Question 1

What does ChunkScan measure for each Minecraft seed?

Accepted Answer

ChunkScan indexes analyzed seeds by nearby structures, spawn biome, nearby biomes, cave features, terrain shape, ocean coverage, island count, biome diversity, edition, and Minecraft version.

Question 2

Why are Minecraft seeds handled as text?

Accepted Answer

Java Edition seeds can use signed 64-bit values that are larger than JavaScript can safely store as numbers, so ChunkScan keeps seed values as text to avoid precision loss.

Question 3

Does ChunkScan work for both Java and Bedrock?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Seeds are scanned separately for Java Edition and Bedrock Edition because structure placement and biome generation differ between editions. Always match the edition and Minecraft version shown on each result when entering it in-game.
