HexCircus
by Nanorasmus
HexCircus is a Hex Casting addon for showmanship, with spells that summon and steer particles and mobs.
What it does
HexCircus adds spells to Hex Casting for staging effects. A caster can summon individual particles that follow either a linear or a bezier path, set their colors as RGB values, and control their speed. Particles can be given programmable behavior, so one effect can run as a sequence rather than a single burst.
The addon also lets a spell override the pathfinding of mobs, so a mob can be made to show a part of an effect. Its focus is spectacle over utility: the spells are built for displays, scenes and presentations on singleplayer or multiplayer servers. It requires Architectury API and Hex Casting, and it is published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, across 3 release versions, 1.19.2 – 1.19.4. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
Key features
Linear and bezier particle paths
Summoned particles can follow either a straight line or a bezier curve, set by the spell.
RGB color and speed control
Particle color is given as RGB values, and the speed of each particle can be set directly.
Programmable particle behavior
Particles can be summoned with custom behavior, so an effect can change over time instead of playing once.
Pathfinding override for mobs
A spell can take control of a mob's pathfinding, letting the mob move as part of a staged effect.

Use cases
Staged scenes
Casters can build displays that combine moving particles and mobs into one timed sequence.
Server spectacles
Server owners can run showy spell performances for players, using the same spells in every session.
Who it’s for: Hex Casting players who want showmanship spells for builds, scenes and performances, and server owners who host such displays. It suits casters who already use Hex Casting and want effects rather than new magic systems.
