World generation
When ores generate, the ores with a triangular distribution have a peak that is one block lower than the distribution implied by the chart here: https://twitter.com/henrikkniberg/status/1364635258260455425/photo/1
I generated ore distributions in an Amplified world with seed 1 over an area of 262,144 chunks and plotted the distributions. I expected peaks of ore distributions to be at these Y levels:
Coal: 95
Iron: 31 and 255
Copper: 47
Gold: -17
Lapis: 0
(Redstone, and diamond excluded because their peaks are at the bottom of the world. Emerald excluded because its peak is high in the world.)
What I actually found:
