Terrain Discontinued Feature 
This page covers Discontinued Terrain generation. These features' discontinued aspect is conditional. In order for these features to truly be discontinued certain conditions have to be met.

Since 18w46a (1.14 snapshot), the End generates several large rings of completely empty space.[1] The edge of these rings is always aligned to an 8×8 grid and can cause "cuts" (completely smooth, flat surfaces) when intersecting with outer end islands. Other structures, such as the small circular end islands, chorus plants, gateways and end cities are not cut off when crossing the border, but also do not generate inside the void ring.

Locations

The rings form concentric circles around 0, 0, with varying thicknesses. There are approximately 6,500 rings, thus only a few notable ones are listed.

The first ring starts at a distance of 370,728 and ends at 524,288. The last ring that is fully inside the world border starts at 29,996,888 and ends at 29,999,176. The last ring that is partially inside the world border starts at a distance of 42,423,616 and ends at 42,425,240 (only achievable close to the corner of the world border).

Beyond the world border using mods, rings can still generate up to the 32-bit limit. The parameters of these are currently unknown and will need to be identified.

A location (x, z) is inside a void ring, if the following Java code is true:

int X = x / 8;
int Z = z / 8;
boolean isEndVoid = (X * X) + (Z * Z) < 0;

A visualization is available in the Desmos Graphing Calculator, made by Quax.
