Summary:
This mod starts a Solar Apocalypse.
From day 20 and beyond the apocalypse starts transforming and destroying blocks exposed to daylight and evaporating water (/time set 20d to skip to this phase).
From day 40 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when exposed to daylight (/time set 40d to skip to this phase).
From day 60 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when over y level 100. Lightning in thunder storms is now 2 times as common. /time set 60d to skip to this phase.
From day 80 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when over y level 60. Lightning in thunder storms is now 4 times as common. /time set 80d to skip to this phase.
From day 100 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when over y level 50. Lightning in thunder storms is now 8 times as common. /time set 100d to skip to this phase.
From day 120 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when over y level 25. Lightning in thunder storms is now 16 times as common. /time set 120d to skip to this phase.
From day 140 and beyond mobs, items, and players will burn when over y level 0. Lightning in thunder storms is now 32 times as common. /time set 140d to skip to this phase.
If you want blocks effected by the heat layer phases that can be turned on in the config.
When suseptible to the apocalypse, fire damage is multiplied by 5, a heat layer overlay is displayed, and fog is much closer to you.
There's a phase in the config for turning blocks to lava which is off by default.
To disable a phase, set the day the phase starts in the config to -1.
The size of the sun increases each phase, the tint of the sky changes each phase, and the sky light color changes each phase.
Everything in this mod is configurable.
