Description


Expert Mode
makes your minecraft survival experience much more challenging! There are a lot of configurable changes done to the game, and each can toggled to your needs! All tweaks are turned on by default, and some play into each other!

Version v5.4 is out! Designed for non-hardcore single player.

Regarding Multiplayer compatibility
I think my issue lies with multiplayer. In singleplayer, I honed thousands of commands to run smoothly for one player, but the @a selector effectively duplicates the amount of code several fold.

Despite my best efforts at optimization, I'm limited by the programming language, and its ineffective memory manipulation and lack of garbage collection. I'm sure that some parts of the pack are able to be improved for speed, but collectively the datapack is too large for multiplayer.

Trust me, I really wanted to show this off to my friends in a server, but alas, Expert Mode will continue to be a singleplayer only experience. I will keep the multiplayer version up to date, in hopes of my own programming getting better, or the game.


Backstory

As a veteran player from the infdev days, I've sunk a lot of hours into this game. While I've enjoyed survival for years, I found hard difficulty lacking as I got better at the game. Combined with changes to the core mechanics of the game, this issue eventually led me to use command blocks to augment my vanilla experience. With the release of datapacks, I'm now able to share my expert mode, with all of you!


Future Plans

1. Add more cauldron recipes
2. Add more mechanics to crossbows
3. New content!


How to Install/Configure

You can essentially drag and drop what modules you want into your datapack folder. Be sure to install the resource pack as well. Regardless of what modules you decide to use, Expert Mode Core must be installed to use the data pack!

The pack has been completely re-written from the ground up! Less lag, multiplayer compatible, 1.18+ ready, and tons of new features and balancing!

When it's done uploading, I'll link to the new post!

I really want to rewrite this datapack from the ground up, when I have the chance to. I want to make the datapack multiplayer compatible, which might mean that some features won't make it into the new version. Still, I feel as if new opportunities will present themselves in the upcoming 1.18 update!

That would make sense, as this datapack is for 1.16.5, and not for the 1.17 snapshots.

If you're wondering why there hasn't been an update in some time, I haven't felt the need to explicitly add anything to the pack.

The multiplayer version is currently very laggy and buggy... It's going to be a long process before it's really playable.
