Heatwaves
by DM Earth
Heatwaves gives Quilt mods a temperature API, with blocks that supply heat and blocks that hold a temperature wave in place.
What it does
A temperature source block is placed in the world and emits a temperature that other blocks can read. A temperature keeper block holds part of a temperature wave where it is set, so the heat does not spread past it. Together the two block types let a mod or a pack build temperature-based behavior on top of the API, which reads and sets the values.
The library is written for Quilt on Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.19.3, and it is published only for the Quilt loader. Installation is simple: either side can run it, and neither needs it. Files are released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public, so the project is open source.
