Ambient entities



Backgrounds are images that appear behind objects and blocks in each biome. They are not interactable. Each biome has its own set of backgrounds that usually show a landscape of the biome. In a world, each biome is randomly assigned a background from its own set, and can be changed by using a World Globe. Backgrounds do not affect a biome in any way, except in The Hallow, where the current background affects the style of the trees.

Ambient objects are objects that appear in the background that are also un-interactable. They depend on the time of day, biome, and weather. Some are rare, and some are very common. They are completely uncontrollable by the player. Clouds can be considered background objects although they aren’t affected by biomes. Ambient objects speed up with time.
