Eclectic

by hyperlynx

Eclectic is a Forge magic mod that adds a collection of small, semi-magical features, from a redstone laser pointer to five colored Emotional Obsidian blocks.

ForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.18.1 – 1.19.2

What it does

Eclectic adds a handful of small additions with a magical theme rather than large changes to the game. Among them are a redstone-powered laser pointer whose beam passes through blocks and entities, a hammer that keeps wooden trapdoors shut, and a glass coating that can be applied to the edges of slabs and stairs. Aiming the beam at most mobs blinds them briefly, and cats chase the dot at high speed.

Crying Obsidian can be exposed with a Ghast Tear to reveal Emotional Obsidian, which comes in five colored variants with their own properties. Weeping Obsidian releases crying particles more often, Raging Obsidian periodically ignites nearby entities, and Wandering Obsidian is the form Mourning Obsidian takes when it returns from the Nether to move restlessly through empty spaces. The Mind Lantern attunes itself to other lanterns to keep players awake, and a floating quilt negates fall damage within a configurable distance.

Eclectic runs on client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. It is published for Forge only, for 1.18.1, 1.18.2, 1.19 and 1.19.2, with 1.3.1 for 1.19.2 as the latest file. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Redstone laser pointer

    A redstone-powered beam scatters off bounding boxes and passes through blocks and entities, and mobs can be blinded by it.

  2. Emotional Obsidian

    Exposing Crying Obsidian with a Ghast Tear yields five colored Emotional Obsidian blocks, each with unique properties.

  3. Mind Lantern

    Placing the lantern lights it green to attune it to others, and phantoms attacking at night is reduced for players short on sleep.

  4. Floating quilt

    A quilt that negates fall damage, deployed beneath the player from the inventory at a configurable distance.

  5. Dyeable sconce

    A decorative sconce with a magical feel whose color and properties change depending on which items are used on it.

What the author says

Eclectic adds a handful of random, semi-magical features to the game, none of which provide a particularly large increase in player power. The goal is for the features to be fun, a little odd, and occasionally even useful. Demo A redstone-powered laser pointer! The beam scatters off the "visual" bounding box of…
