Eroded World
by MSWHendys
Eroded World, a Fabric world generation mod by MSWHendys, changes how players survive death, hunger and anchor respawns in a rich set of adventure features.
What it does
The mod adds a set of survival systems layered over the game. Actions have consequences, and players are encouraged to plan ahead, conserve strength and survive fights that fight back. Around a respawn anchor the mod builds a safest area that even the Wither will not cross, which is where a true adventure begins outside the spawn point. Health and food recover naturally over time, and eating or drinking an Energy Drink adds to that recovery, while an Energy Stabilizer can freeze consumption for a limited time.
Placing a respawn anchor is guided by a second anchor module, held in hand, which visually marks the recommended spot for the next placement. The Death Chest protects a player's items for a limited time, and the timer extends the further away the chest is placed. A Death Compass tracks the chest and leads directly back to it, even through portals. After respawning, the player receives temporary protection from mobs through a weapon hidden inside the compass. Eroded World targets Fabric, and its files start at 1.21.6 and run through the 26.2 line.
The mod runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric only, across 10 release versions, 1.21.6 – 26.2, and snapshot builds are published as well. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved. The author publishes source code, an issue tracker and a wiki alongside the files.
