Fractal
A Minecraft mod for generating 3D fractals with a single command.

Command Usage
/fractal palettes
Prints the current block palettes as defined in fractal-palettes.json.
/fractal mandelbox [palette] [scale]
Generates a mandelbox fractal between loc1 and loc2 with a specified palette. Scale, which defaults to -3, significantly changes the generation of the fractal.
/fractal mandelbulb [palette] [A] [B] [C] [D]
Generates a mandelbulb fractal between loc1 and loc2 with a specified palette using the quintic formula. A, B, C and D are constants that effect the generation of the fractal.
Configuration
Block palettes can be configured with config/fractal-palettes.json. To add a new palette, just add it to the file. An example fractal-palettes.json is shown below:
