Global warming is not a myth! This is what spring will look like if we keep up polluting like we are. This was originally designed as part of the datapack for my project, but since there were a number of people asking about it I pulled it out and made it into its own datapack. Now you can overheat your world too!

This datapack is made to make the minecraft sun EVEN HOTTER! Now it will burn you to go out in the sun much like it burns skeletons. Make sure to apply your sunscreen, because the weather today is HOT!


Features:
  • Players and mobs will burn in direct sunlight.
  • Water will evaporate in direct sunlight.
  • Ice/snow will also evaporate in direct sunlight.
  • Grass and farmland will wither and die (turning into coarse dirt) in direct sunlight. Since grass paths already look and act dead, those remain fine.
  • Saplings/crops/flowers will all pop off the block and fail to grow in direct sunlight.
  • Now nighttime with all its monsters will be the SAFEST time for you!
  • Minor modifications to the init file (sunburn/data/sunburn/functions/init.mcfunction) allows for this to work with more players (on a server for example) as well as disabling weather (rain/storms). Comments in the init file on what/how to modify this to your liking.
  • Add the "sunscreen" tag to a mob or player to allow them to ignore the burning effect.


I am still working on the following:
  • Needs tested in larger scale server environment. The burning should work fine, but the waterseekers might get overworked with too many players.
  • Might add something so leaves/trees burn in daylight too if anyone is interested.

If anyone sees issues or has ideas to fix some of the issues, please let me know. I will keep working on it and post updates. This should also work on multiplayer worlds as well as 1.16, but if it has not been tested there and if it does not please let me know!

Project this was developed for: https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/blasted-landscape/
Discord channel for the project I'm working on (where this datapack came from): https://discord.gg/ygQabgk

Note: One thing I did notice is that the waterseekers do not seem to start their work if added to a world (there seems to be a bug with MC init when adding a datapack to an existing world). After adding the datapack and logging in, /reload and from then on it should work fine.

More like this

  Have something to say?

The predicate that this is based on (location_check --> light) doesn't work in the way you intended. It checks for a light level of 15 instead of a skylight level of 15. This means that if the player stands in a lantern, campfire, fire, lava, lava containing cauldron, or 4 sea pickles in water they will start to burn.

A simple fix for this problem could be to detect specific blocks/blockstates which emit light level 15 and disable the entity burning in this case.

Wow.. Those are some odd edge cases I didn't think of. The fire ones aren't too worrying since you would be on fire anyway, but the sea pickle one I had not even considered! I will have to take into account the few light 15 blocks you can be INSIDE next time I work on this...

I would almost think you would burn MORE. Have you ever tried wearing leather (let alone metal) armor while walking through a normal hot desert?

Hey, I was looking for something like this to add to my server for October, but only the players burning part on 1.16.2
Any chance of getting a simple version for that?

I might have to do this... It does not do that currently as it was not something that anyone asked for or anything that I had thought about... It is a good idea to add a toggle for "all biomes" / "desert and mesa biomes"
