DoxEffect (TaCZ Recommendation)

Short description

A shared **status-effect system** the Dox mods build on. Sources apply typed debuffs — movement/attack slowness, weapon spread, recoil, view tremor — each with a magnitude and duration; consumers read the effective value (or it's applied as an attribute). Multiple sources **stack correctly** (attribute effects multiply, query effects sum). Active effects mirror to **vanilla effect icons**, and a **/effect bridge** lets vanilla commands / other plugins trigger the real effect. Installed because another Dox mod requires it.

What it provides

• **Typed effects** — MOVE_SLOW, ATTACK_SLOW (attribute-based), GUN_SPREAD, GUN_RECOIL, VIEW_TREMOR (query-based, client-synced).

• **Source stacking** — e.g. "healing −50%" and "broken leg −35%" combine; each source can be updated or cleared independently.

• **Timed or indefinite** — duration ticks, or state-driven (a source refreshes/removes it).

• **Vanilla icon mirroring** + **/effect bridge** — give the display MobEffect via vanilla and it becomes the real effect.

• **Client sync** for visual effects (recoil/tremor) — only the local player's effective value is streamed.

• **Silence guard** — while the effect is active, chat and voice transmission are blocked.

• **Arm-state debuffs** — an arm's condition feeds gun spread, recoil and view sway for mods that read those values (DoxAmmo does).

• **Translated into 20 languages.**

Minecraft versions

This mod ships two lines, and they are not interchangeable:

• **1.x** — Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge

• **2.x** — Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge

Both are maintained. Pick the file whose major version matches your loader; a 1.x file will simply not load on 1.21.1, and vice versa. Dependencies follow the same rule — 2.x mods require 2.x of the Dox mods they depend on.

Requirements

• **DoxCore** (required, matching version line). Does nothing visible on its own — a shared system used by other Dox mods.

For modders

• DoxEffectManager.apply(player, source, type, magnitude, durationTicks) / applyBatch / clearSource.

• DoxEffectManager.magnitude(player, type) — read effective query value (spread/recoil/tremor).

• ClientEffects.recoil / ClientEffects.tremor — client-side synced values for render code.

Known issue

The **deafened** and **silenced** effects have no icon texture yet, so they show as a missing-texture square in the effect list. Cosmetic only — not a crash.
