Beacon Overhaul Reloaded

by solonovamax

Beacon Overhaul Reloaded changes how beacons work, adding new effects and a points system that rewards more expensive building materials with stronger effects.

FabricQuiltClient and serverApache License 2.0Open source1.20.1

What it does

Beacons gain a points system in which pyramid materials of higher cost grant a more potent effect. Two new effects are added: Long Reach extends interaction range, and Nutrition passively restores food. Night vision can be raised to a higher potency that lights areas as if at midday, with a fuller and brighter fog appearance.

Slow Falling lets a sneaking player drop at normal velocity while still negating fall damage. Step height is raised by the Jump Boost effect so a player can step up blocks instantly, and auto-jump takes precedence when that setting is active, so it has to be disabled for the effect to apply. Amethyst clusters can redirect the beacon beam. Fabric API, Fabric Language Kotlin, Lavender and oωo (owo-lib) are required, and the mod is open source under the Apache License 2.0, for Fabric and Quilt on 1.20.1 only. The server and every player need the mod installed.

Key features

  1. Beacon points system

    Higher-cost materials in the beacon pyramid grant a more potent effect, so the build determines the strength.

  2. New beacon effects

    Long Reach increases interaction range, and Nutrition passively restores food while the effect is active.

  3. Slow falling while sneaking

    Sneaking drops the player at normal velocity while fall damage is still negated.

  4. Redirectable beacon beam

    Amethyst clusters can be used to redirect the beam of a beacon.

How it compares

Full comparison

Beacon Overhaul Revived is open source under the Apache License 2.0 and covers Fabric and Quilt, but its files target 1.21.11 – 26.1.2, so it does not run on 1.20.1. Beacon Overhaul Continued is also open source under the Apache License 2.0, Fabric only, for 1.21.4 – 1.21.10. BeaconEnhancer is a Fabric client and server mod for 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Questions

Does Beacon Overhaul Reloaded need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is required, alongside Fabric Language Kotlin, Lavender and oωo (owo-lib).

Must the server have Beacon Overhaul Reloaded installed?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Why does Jump Boost step height not work with auto-jump?

Auto-jump takes precedence over the step-height effect, so it has to be disabled for the effect to apply.
