In both directions? Oh yeah!! I cannot wait for these massive underground caves, and the super realistic tall mountains that 1.18 will bring to the game!!! :D
That is still yet to be decided. It's been speculated that old chunks in your world may just get padded down to Y:-64 with bedrock as the new terrain generates normally with the 1.18 engine, but... this is all speculation. Mojang has yet to finalize the new terrain generator. It still has issues.
From what I read on the wiki, as I understood it, you shouldn’t have to worry about that until 1.18. Because they broke the update into a two parter, and that specifically is in the later half. So I would assume that you’re going to be fine in 1.17 chunks. But hey, we have seen some very oddballs in this game. I wouldn’t be surprised if we still saw some strange happenings in the new areas haha. Watch out!
No problem Nick~ The Minecraft team even said, live, that the new generation will attempt to "blend" with the old world terrain as "seamlessly as possible". That way we do not get those horrible world chunk borders we did in previous versions of Minecraft. (But I look forward to those anyways haha~)
