One in 10000 Chance for a Skeleton to Run Across Your Screen
by danetteQ
One in 10000 Chance for a Skeleton to Run Across Your Screen is a Fabric joke mod that occasionally sends a running skeleton across the player's screen during play.
What it does
A skeleton sprite has a 1 in 10000 chance to run across the screen on a given play, and the command randomskeleton setchance adjusts that probability. The effect is a visual jumpscare handled entirely on the client, so it does not change gameplay, and the mod is listed as having a small client-side lag cost.
The mod is inspired by a similar joke mod made by FryingThePain and draws on the summer car theme of its design. Fabric API is required, and the card lists 26.2 as the only game version.
