Magic Moon
by ChongYu668
Magic Moon changes the phases of the night and day cycle, adding blood, blue and yellow moons that alter spawns and crop growth in the world.
What it does
Each moon phase in Magic Moon brings its own change to the world. A blood moon raises the number of hostile monsters on the surface at night, while a blood month spreads the effect over a longer span. A blue moon and a yellow moon each change how crops behave, and during the night the ground is harder for monsters to walk across. A thunderstorm can fall during the day and bring hellish monsters and predators with it. A light-and-shadow effect with a special, color-changing moon is shown in the sky.
Magic Moon is a configurable Adventure mod for players who want the nights to vary. The mod stores its settings in a file named magicmoon.json inside the config folder of a world, and the commands setDay and setDayNight let a player switch the time of day directly. Either side can run it. The mod is published for Fabric and NeoForge across 11 release versions, 1.19.2 – 26.3, under All rights reserved, and it is not open source.
Key features
Blood moon and blood month
A blood moon raises the number of surface monsters at night, and a blood month extends the effect over a longer period.
Blue and yellow moons
Each of these moon phases changes crop harvesting, with a double-yield chance for crops at night on the yellow moon.
Harder night ground
The ground at night is harder for monsters to walk across, which lowers how often they reach the player during the night.
Thunderstorms in the day
Thunderstorms can fall during the day and spawn hellish monsters and predators, changing the danger of daytime travel.
