New Climate Data Format Released for Developers April 22

A new Open Model Format for climate and development data was released on April 22, 2026. This update helps developers manage data more easily.

April 22, 2026 – A new "framework" for climate and development capital has surfaced, detailing an extension to existing data formats. This framework appears to address the management and synchronization of data, particularly within contexts that might involve entity interactions and tracking.

The system, described as an "Open Model Format," is an extension to a "Vanilla's JSON Block Model format." It introduces concepts like 'synced data keys,' exemplified by a 'HIT_COUNT' for a 'Chicken' entity.

  • This 'HIT_COUNT' is an integer, defaulting to zero.

  • It operates with a 'tracking only' synchronization mode.

  • The framework also mentions "easy login packets" and custom packet creation, a process described as requiring "significant code" without the framework.

  • Further capabilities include positioning and sizing elements beyond standard boundaries, specifically "larger than the maximum bounds [-16,-16, -16] to [32, 32, 32]."

Support and development updates are reportedly available via an "Official Discord Server," with the document noting the "comment section isn't great for support." Information about mod updates and development is also promised to be shared there ahead of other platforms.
