Modern Temperature
Modern Temperature adds a body temperature system to Minecraft, inspired by Tough Nails, so that cold and heat become a survival concern.
What it does
A player's temperature rises and falls as they move through the world, and becoming too cold or too hot has consequences. Campfires, torches, lava and similar sources keep a player warm, while standing in water or on ice, or near soul campfires and torches, keeps them cool. Some biomes are naturally warm, such as jungles, while snowy plains are cold and the Nether is burning hot.
The mod is meant to add a little more challenge to the normal order of Minecraft, and players need to prepare before they can withstand extreme cold or heat. Temperature can be read as a numerical value on the top left gauge or through a color change in the hotbar, depending on how the client configs are set. The get command also reports the exact value. Modern Temperature is a Forge mod that runs on client and server, and its code is under the MIT License, so it is open source.
