Lava Walker Enchantment
Lava Walker Enchantment lets boots walk across lava pools and lakes, turning the lava surface into basalt under the player.
What it does
The enchantment is added to boots. Each level lets the wearer cross lava pools and wide lava lakes safely, with the lava under the player turning into basalt as they move. Only lava source blocks are affected; flowing lava and lava waterfalls are not, and air above the lava does not trigger the blocks directly below.
Molten basalt goes through three visual stages, gradually cracking and cooling before it reverts to lava. In the Nether the heat melts it noticeably faster, and it stays stable for a shorter time there than in other dimensions. The enchantment can be applied at an enchantment table using lapis lazuli. It can also turn up in dungeon chests, through Librarian villager trades, and occasionally in Bastion Remnants and Ruined Portals.
The mod requires Fabric API and runs on Fabric only, for 1.20.1. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is open source under the Apache License 2.0.
