Done and checked: surface and cave-floor ore nodes (companion mod
ore/OreNodes.kt), bigger and rarer underground veins; template with nodes
passed the world check and the island quick check (node self-tests).
Built, not yet tested: catching rules (catch rate falls with the level
gap to the trainer's strongest Pokemon, failed catch enrages, strong wild
Pokemon hunt weaker trainers; catching/, Fight or Flight config), bee
nests emptied when their bee is turned away.
In progress: the Deep Dark no longer fills the deepslate layer (split by
temperature: cold = Deep Dark, hot = basalt deltas, warm = ordinary caves;
world/biomes.json), zone layout regenerated; cave zone types added to
world/zones.json but tools/zone_spawns.py doesn't use them yet; template
not rebuilt for the new caves.

Ore veins: make_world.py loads the island again row by row until
Regenerating Ore Veins has filled every chunk (/cobblesurvival veins
unfilled), cave tiers sit at their biome's depths, small zones get denser
veins, showcase veins are full size. The world report checks surface
tiers against the zone grid, cave tiers within two biome cells of their
cave, and fails on unfilled chunks; the template passes (37,689 chunks).
Drops: tools/drop_audit.py checks every creature drop a recipe or brewing
needs (docs/pokemon-drops.md). Blaze rods, ghast tears, breeze rods,
shulker shells and nether stars now drop from Pokemon through species
additions (self-test drop_additions_apply). The field guide counts vanilla
mobs as absent, applies species additions and reads the veins as sources.
Cobblebase tried (loads, self-tests pass) and left out until Adrian
decides its scope. Phase 4 checklist with the open questions.
