Description
Extended Beacon Range
Extended Beacon Range is a lightweight quality-of-life mod that makes Beacons stronger and easier to visualize.
Features
- Beacon effect radius multiplied by x3
- Press H to toggle all Beacon perimeters
- Look at a Beacon and press H to toggle only that Beacon
- Multiplayer range works from the server side
- Optional client-side overlay for players who want it
Install Notes
IMPORTANT
In multiplayer, the mod only needs to be installed on the server for the Beacon x3 range to work for every player. Players only need the mod on their client if they want to use the Beacon perimeter overlay with H.
| Setup | What works |
|---|---|
| Singleplayer | Range x3 and perimeter overlay both work normally. |
| Server only | Range x3 works for every player, even if they do not install the mod. |
| Server + client | Range x3 works, and players with the mod installed can use H to view Beacon perimeters. |
Range Comparison
The effect radius of every Beacon pyramid level is multiplied by x3.
| Pyramid Level | 🟥 Vanilla | 🟪 Extended Beacon Range | 📐 Diameter |

| Level 3 | 40 | 120 | 241 |
| Level 4 (Max) | 50 | 150 | 301 |
