Lightning Tweaker Addon

Post by IssaMe »

This has been superseded by the Tweaker Addon

Are you tired of lightning burning down your landscape? Does it annoy you to the point where you turn off weather using cheats? Well then, this is the addon for you!

Source

Lightning Tweaker currently lets you stop lightning from creating fire entirely. Simply type in

Code: Select all

/lightning setFire false
and lightning will stop producing fire. This modifies a value in level.dat, so it will be unique for all worlds.

This addon should also work on servers, and the client does not need to have the addon installed to use it.

Ooh nice! I was planning on getting around to a tweak like this eventually but I see you beat me to it :)

Updated addon to change how lightning affects wood blocks, so they no longer smolder and spread fire. Admittedly an oversight on my part, but now it's fixed :)

Any interest in updating this for the community edition, now that the extended addon API is incompatible with it I think? Thank you for the addon by the way, it always irked me in BTW that any natural forest landscape would tend to get ugly with charred trees over time.

For now you can disable fire tick. It's definitely cheaty and disables any other sources of fire as well, but that's what I am currently using until either IssaMe updates or I make something else for it.

Ah yeah sorry, I've been quite busy irl recently. If Dawn doesn't make something else by the time I get around to it then I'll definitely update it :)

I know this goes against what I just said but..

Updated for version 1.1.7 of Better than Wolves: Community Edition!

This releases changes how things work under the hood. Instead of saving the value of the command in a config file, it is now changed in the level.dat file. This means that functionality is now unique for all worlds.

Well thank you! o7

Just started a new world with my spawn adjacent to a lovely forested mesa, would have hated to see it all get crisped.
