SnowPED

SnowPED is a survival-focused mod that turns the world into a frozen, unforgiving place. Plants no longer grow, food is scarce, temperature is lethal, and the environment itself is a primary threat. The mod combines magic, fantasy, and technical systems to create a slow, oppressive survival experience with configurable mechanics.

Core Features

• Advanced temperature system with visual indicators (F9).
• Frozen world – constant snow, thick ice, and rapidly freezing water.
• No crop growth and no bone meal usage.
• Severe food limitations and alternative nutrition sources.
• Player graves that preserve inventory and experience.
• Custom commands and server-side configuration.

Temperature System

• Press F9 to visualize nearby temperature using icons:

• Ice – cold
• Fire – heat
• Heart – comfort
• Staying in warm zones keeps you safe.
• Cold and heat deal direct damage and can kill the player.
• Due to technical limitations, temperature heavily depends on surrounding light levels.
• Water freezes faster than the player can freeze in it.
• Open water freezes quickly; under ice, water can be up to 7 blocks deep.
• Snow constantly falls in loaded chunks and layers infinitely.

Frost Update

• The entire Nether requires light level 9+ and permanent night vision.
• Campfires and fire extinguish after 1 minute.
• Any water freezes after 20 seconds.
• Leather armor provides warmth but breaks very quickly.
• Snow falls everywhere and stacks infinitely.
• Snowstorm system – canceled (too complex to implement).
• /yourline ultrasnow true/false – instantly die from cold or heat when enabled.

Food and Survival

Animal Drops

• Pigs – lard (yourline:lard)
• Cows – leather only
• Chickens – feathers only
• Sheep – wool only
• Rabbits – leather only

Main Food Sources

• Sawdust Soup

• Crafted from any wood + a bowl of water
• Gives a small amount of food and nausea
• Better than nothing
• Fish – one of the few reliable food sources

Plants do not grow at all, making sawdust soup and fish the primary diet.

Items and Blocks

Bowl of Water

• Filled from a cauldron
• Provides no hunger or saturation
• Exists purely as a crafting component

Locked Book

• Rarely found in dungeons
• When opened, grants a random enchanted book
• Random enchantment levels and count

Yanta (Hand Warmer)

• Cannot be crafted
• Appears in the player inventory after death
• Temporarily protects from cold
• Consumed very quickly
• Must be held in hand to function

Melted Milk

• Milk processed in a smoker

Graves System

/yourline grave true/false

After death, a grave block appears and stores inventory and experience using NBT.

Grave types depend on cause of death:

• Ice Grave (ice_grave) – frozen to death
• Coal Grave (coal_grave) – burned by fire (not lava)
• Soul Sand Grave (soul_sand_grave) – any other death

Only the owner can recover the grave. Other players cannot break or move it. Using pistons will destroy the grave without dropping items.

Void Dimension

• Technical dimension
• Access via command:

/yourline dimension <dimension_name>

• Used for internal and system-related mechanics

Enchantments

Destroyer of the Worlds Boundaries

• Applied to pickaxes
• Breaking the enchanted pickaxe reduces the world border
• Grants a new resource: Venye

Dialog System

• %Message – sends a message without a character name
• %!Message – sends a message as the character
• /yourline setname <name> – sets the character name

Example:

/yourline setname Jonatan
%!Hello

Output:

Jonatan: Hello
