You know how the Nether is a horrible, deadly place to exist in? What if the Overworld was also like that?
With this datapack, all these things* can happen at random times:
- Fireballs fall from the sky, directly on top of you!
- Flowing lava can fall from the sky, directly on top of you!
- TNT can fall from the sky, directly on top of you!
- Note: To make this a bit more fair, the TNT has a very long timer.
- You can randomly get levitation!
- A Nether Pocket can appear!
- Inside a Nether Pocket, beds explode, Nether mobs spawn, and water can't be placed. (And there are tons of particles so it's easy to see.)
- Zombified Piglins spawn here. If they go outside of the area, they die without dropping loot.
- When you kill a zombified piglin, the pocket will go away.
Hopefully, if you are paying attention, none of these things will be a random death event. However, if you are planning to stay alive for a long period of time... good luck!
*I was going to write "...and more!" here, but unfortunately there isn't actually any more features. (More features coming soon (probably) though!)
