Steps to reproduce:
In a test world, save any structure using a structure block
In your computer’s file browser, navigate to
[your Minecraft install folder]/saves/[name of your test world]/generated/[namespace of the structure you saved]/You should see that the only subfolder that appears is named
structuresand that it contains the exported structure’s.nbtfile
Expected result:
Structures should be saved in the [Minecraft install folder]/saves/[world]/generated/[namespace]/structure/ folder, because (as of snapshot 24w21a) data packs require structure .nbt files to be placed in the data/[namespace]/structure/ folder.
Actual result:
Structures are saved in the [Minecraft install folder]/saves/[world]/generated/[namespace]/structures/ folder, which can cause confusion when copying structures from the world’s folder into a work-in-progress data pack.
