When using a Nether star by right-clicking on the beacon, the mod automatically calculates the new radius of the beacon based on the number of Nether stars used and applies it instantly. This expanded functionality provides players with greater flexibility and control over the range of beneficial effects provided by beacons, allowing them to further customize their gameplay experience and optimize the efficiency of their projects in the Minecraft world. With smart mathematical formulas and seamless integration into the game, "Beacon Enhancer" offers a significant improvement in gameplay for exploration and construction enthusiasts in Minecraft.
The mathematical formula used by the "Beacon Enhancer" mod to calculate the new radius of the beacon is as follows:

Where:
- customRadius: customRadius is the new radius of the beacon.
- baseRadius: baseRadius is the base radius of a beacon without any enhancements.
- netherStarCounter: netherStarCounter is the number of Nether stars used to enhance the beacon.
- additionalArea: additionalArea is the extra area added to the beacon's radius for each Nether star.
- π: is a mathematical constant representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.
This formula calculates the new radius of the beacon taking into account both the base radius and the number of Nether stars used to enhance the beacon. The more Nether stars used, the larger the resulting beacon radius.
