    Features

    This pack introduces a complex spell casting system which allows you to build your own custom spells, setting their behavior through the spell book interface.

    Beside the magic system, the pack adds a set of items, with one variant for each of the 5 energy types available.
    5 structures are also added to the pack, one for each energy type, and they are the starting point for this pack.


    Items

    • energy: fuel for spells
    • spell book: allows you to create and cast spells
    • jar of energy: a better way to carry with you lot of energy
    • caster armor: offers no protection but discounts the cost of the spells you cast


    Energy Types

    • sun energy
    • ground energy
    • soul energy
    • dark energy
    • void energy

    Each energy type is linked to a set of effects you can use in your spells.


    Structures


    The structures introduced by this pack are called ruins, they are small simple structures containing an Energy Globes spawner. These globes give you access to all the items in the pack.


    Getting Started


    This pack comes with a really short in game guide in the advancement tab, which will teach you how to craft all items. I still strongly suggest to watch the tutorial before playing.


    Installation


    Download the datapack and put it in the datapacks folder of your world or server. Make sure you download the required resourcepack, and put it in the resource packs folder.

    If you plan to use multiple datapacks and resourcepacks together, you can use Weld to easily merge them together to place in your world. (some packs may not be compatible with others, but mine follows smithed's conventions for better compatibility with other packs)

    7 Update Logs

    Update 0.30.1 : by xylo_datapacks 03/20/2024 12:21:12 pmMar 20th

    Spells

    • break effect deals twice as much damage
    • added 'align' value for 'direction' and 'position' nodes (to align the direction to the closest carinal direction, and to align the position to the grid along one or more axes)
    • added 'attacker' target to target the entity who attacked the caster
    • added 'damage dealt' and 'damage taken' flags

    Mind Attacks

    • only boss entities now have focus, meaning that attacking with your mind other mobs will result in the order being applied instantly
    • A fully charged mind attack can deal up to 10 hearts of damage
    • mind attacks have different fx for when they just remove focus and when they actually apply the mind control order

    Bug Fixes

    • now all tutorial advancements show up
    • fixed "player_and_mob" target selector
    • fixed a bug where players dying while meditating would lose their items

    Nerd Stuff

    • shapes and effects code is not totally separated from the rest of the pack, meaning that it is now possible to make add-on datapacks which introduce new effects or shapes (documentation coming in the future)

    You can chose it. You can select between mainhand, offhand, an hotbar slot, an inventory slot.
    If you chose hotbar or inventory, you have to select which slot in them. You start counting from up left from zero.
    pretty straightforward.

    if you need more help join the discord channel and ask there

    Did you watch the tutorial?? Cause if you did, you would know that spells require energy. If you dont have the right energy in item form, than the spell will take from you saturation and health to pay the energy cost

    Also remember, as the tutorial also says, that overcharging a spell will cause the spell to start taking energy directly from you (saturation and health)

    The video explains all of this at 6:24, on the time stamp called "Energy & spell books mechanics"

    I'm having problems with the spirits. They're spawning with normal vex stats, some of them have weapons, and when i kill them with books/glass bottles, nothing happens

    It will be realy cool if there would be like a dark wizard boss who will also have acsess to magic and once you defeat him you will get the death wand which take 5 seconds to load, once the player clicks it it will summon a slow dark orb that will eat everything and it will be realy powerful.

    Wands are a no go for me. I don't like the concept of a wand.
    bosses will eventually be added, but there is a lot of work to do on the pack before that.

    you can already sort of do a spell like that with what is already in the pack, but it will require you some major brain power, cause it is kinda complicated.
    will be easier once i add the aoe shape with the next update
