Active volcanic vents spawn in the Nether and occasionally erupt, blanketing nearby areas with damaging ash particles that affect PvP visibility and deal tick damage.

Description

Volcanic Ash Combat

Introduces volcanic hazards to Nether PvP encounters.

Features

Volcanic Vents

  • Spawn randomly across Nether wastes and basalt deltas biomes using marker entities
  • Erupt every few minutes with a chance-based trigger system

Ash Clouds

  • Dense particle effects that expand outward in a radius upon eruption
  • Persist for 30-60 seconds before dissipating naturally
  • Apply effects to players in the cloud:
    • Mining fatigue
    • Reduced visibility
    • Small amounts of fire damage over time

Tactical Element

  • Creates dynamic environmental zones during PvP fights
  • Enables positioning strategies: lure enemies into ash or use eruptions as cover for retreats

Technical Details

  • Uses scoreboard timers for eruption cycles
  • Uses area effect clouds for damage zones
  • Optimized for performance: only checks vent status every 20 ticks, limited to loaded chunks with efficient entity selectors

Commands

  • /function volcanic_ash:force_eruption - Trigger an eruption at the nearest vent
  • /function volcanic_ash:clear_all - Remove all active ash clouds
