The Solar Eclipse
by CozyGlow
The Solar Eclipse adds a timed in-game event that darkens the world and changes how some mobs behave.
What it does
During a solar eclipse the sky goes dark, and monsters no longer burn in daylight while the event lasts. Spiders act as they do at night. The event occurs on specific days, and the solar eclipse command reports when the next one will take place. The mod is published for NeoForge on 1.21.8 only, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
