⭐ Range Bonuses Each pyramid material adds a bonus to the beacon’s effect radius:
Iron — +0
Gold — +5
Emerald — +10
Diamond — +15
Netherite — +25
These bonuses stack on top of the vanilla beacon range.
⚠️ Important: Lowest‑Tier Rule Your beacon’s bonus is determined by the lowest‑tier block anywhere in the pyramid.
That means:
A diamond pyramid with one iron block → Iron bonus (0)
A full iron pyramid with a netherite top → Iron bonus (0)
To get the netherite bonus, every block in the pyramid must be netherite or better
This encourages players to build true high‑tier pyramids instead of mixing materials.
📏 Square Range (Infinite Height) BeaconPlus uses a square‑shaped range instead of a circle. Effects apply to any player within a square centered on the beacon — no vertical limit.
This makes beacon coverage feel more consistent for:
Towers
Bases
Farms
Vertical builds
Multi‑floor structures
🧱 Fully Server‑Optimized BeaconPlus is designed with servers in mind:
Efficient caching
No laggy scans
No client‑side code
Works seamlessly with Fabric servers
🔧 Compatibility Fabric Loader
Minecraft 1.21.1x
