You are free to stream or record gameplay using this datapack. However, please ensure your content adheres to Minecraft's usage guidelines, which generally require content to be freely accessible.

You may include this datapack in custom maps, other datapacks, or mods under the terms of the MIT License. However, no support or warranty is provided for such integrations. Please also be aware of the Minecraft Java Edition EULA, which prohibits the sale of mods and related content.

The following are known issues or intended behaviors within this datapack. There are currently no plans to change these aspects.

Issue: Upon first login, all players are automatically assigned to the 'player' team.

Reason: This is intentionally done to disable friendly fire from the datapack's magic effects by default.

Issue: Shields held in the off-hand may occasionally duplicate when in Creative mode.

Reason: This can occur because the datapack is primarily designed and optimized for Survival and Adventure modes, prioritizing performance within those gameplay experiences.

Issue: The Creative inventory search tab or other modded inventories might display enchanted books with no names. Additionally, applying non-vanilla/non-datapack enchantments might remove the enchanted glint effect from items.

Reason: These are unavoidable side effects related to the internal mechanics and processes used by the datapack to implement its features. They cannot be fixed without compromising the core functionality.

For PVP, it's recommended to assign players to one of the designated teams (e.g., illager, player, red, other) and execute the function provided below to enable team-based friendly fire logic:
