Unforgiving Void
Unforgiving Void makes a fall into the void return the player to a safe spot, with settings for what happens after the drop.
What it does
When a player falls below the bottom of the world, the mod teleports them to a safe position instead of letting the fall end the run. The destination can be a place near the spot they fell from, a platform built on the surface, or the world spawn point. The configuration sets how far horizontally the player may be moved, the depth that counts as a fall, which dimension the player ends up in, and whether the player gets Fire Resistance and Slow Falling for a while after arriving. A portal can also be given to the player, built from obsidian.
The mod runs on the server alone. Players join without installing it, and server owners can configure it per dimension or override the settings for one dimension. Installation needs Annotated DI and Fireplace Lib on every loader, and Fabric API on Fabric. Unforgiving Void is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 and is published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 31 release versions, 1.14.4 – 1.21.7.
Key features
Safe return after a fall
A player who passes below the bottom of the world is moved to a safe position, so a void fall does not have to end the run.
Configurable destination
The landing spot can be set near the fall, on a surface platform, or at the world spawn point, and the horizontal distance is adjustable.
Per-dimension settings
Each dimension can keep the default behavior or override it, including the destination dimension and the depth that triggers the teleport.
Protection after arrival
Fire Resistance and Slow Falling can be granted for a configured length of time, and an obsidian portal can be given to the player.
