PAM | Philipp´s Alarm Mod
PAM | Philipp´s Alarm Mod adds siren blocks, siren lights and control boards that play alarm sounds driven by redstone power.
What it does
Siren blocks sound an alarm when powered by redstone, and the mod adds a siren light, a siren control board and decorative blocks built around them. Recipes and advancements cover the new blocks, and structures let players find sirens in the world. Fifteen new sirens are included, several of them modeled with 3D shapes that play their alarm when redstone power reaches them.
The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and it needs to be installed on both the client and the server. Its one multiplayer-related config option controls how loud the alarms are: alarms always take half of the current sound setting, and a value of 0.2 leaves them quiet, so the pam:config option can raise the volume. Players who hear horns or industrial horn speakers quieter than expected should check this setting first. The mod was ported from Bedrock and to a newer Java version, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Since the siren lights rotate and strobe with flashing visual effects, players who have photosensitive epilepsy may have seizures while using it. Anyone with epilepsy or a history of seizures should consult a physician before using it, and anyone who feels dizziness, altered vision, eye twitches, disorientation or convulsions while playing should stop at once and consult a physician.
