Compressed Pollution

by Sevens

Compressed Pollution is a Forge API for pollution systems, giving other mods finer control over how pollution is caused and tracked in a world.

What it does

Most pollution APIs expose a single number that the scenes behind them use to decide how polluted the world is, which leaves a mod author little say over what causes pollution. Compressed Pollution offers near full control over how many pollution types exist and which actions produce each of them. Item destruction is one of the base forms it handles, so pollution can be tied to what was destroyed. The mod is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, and it is open source.

Key features

  1. Simple pollution system

    Provides a basic pollution system that other mods can build on as a library.

  2. Multiple pollution types

    Lets an author define several distinct pollution types instead of one shared value.

  3. Cause-based pollution

    Ties pollution to the specific actions that cause it, such as destroying a given item.
