Soothing Campfires
by Quozul
Soothing Campfires gives a regeneration effect to players who stand near a campfire that is cooking food, with timing and range set through gamerules.
What it does
Cooking food on a campfire gives nearby players a small regeneration effect over time. Standing within range of a lit, cooking campfire is enough, so players recover health while they wait on a meal. The effect's duration, radius and strength can be changed, and a hay bale placed below the campfire can extend the range that counts.
The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and the server alone runs it. It requires Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric only, across 15 release versions 1.21 – 26.1.2, and the code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain. Source code and an issue tracker are public.
Gamerule names changed in earlier releases, so server owners upgrading from an older build should check the names they use in their configuration against the current ones.
Key features
Regeneration near cooking campfires
Anyone within reach of a lit campfire that is cooking food slowly regains health.
Adjustable effect duration
The length of the regeneration effect is set in ticks through a gamerule, with a default value.
Adjustable effect radius
The distance from the campfire at which the effect applies is a configurable gamerule, measured in blocks.
Adjustable effect strength
An amplifier gamerule sets how strong the regeneration effect is.
Hay bale range boost
Placing a hay bale beneath the campfire switches to a second, wider radius, which is set by its own gamerule.
