Imagine you had a side view of a mountain and you could make it wider and thinner at any given elevation. This is approximately how the y-threshold system works. terrainYKeyPositions are the relative (0=bottom, 1=top of the world) coordinates and terrainYKeyThresholds define how much Percent of terrain should be solid blocks (0 = always solid, 1 = always air), or in other words it's density. We could also make a graph of this: | |||

And below a certain y-position the density is always 1. If we would set that to a lower value, we would get very deep lakes. | And below a certain y-position the density is always 1. If we would set that to a lower value, we would get very deep lakes. | ||

However, it wouldn't make sense to configure more than 256 thresholds for a world height of 256 blocks. | ||
