Realistic Thirst
Bring a new survival challenge to Minecraft with a fully functional thirst system.
This datapack, combined with the included required resource pack, adds a realistic thirst bar to the game. The resource pack is necessary to display the thirst bar correctly in the HUD. Just like hunger, your thirst gradually decreases over time, forcing you to drink water regularly to stay hydrated.
Features
- 💧 A brand-new thirst bar integrated into the HUD.
- 🌍 Realistic hydration mechanic that fits naturally into survival gameplay.
- 🥤 Drink water to restore your thirst.
- ⚠️ Ignore your thirst for too long, and you'll suffer negative effects.
- 🎮 Multiplayer compatible.
- 📦 Lightweight and easy to install.
- 🎨 Requires the included resource pack to display the thirst bar properly.
Perfect for players looking for a more immersive and challenging survival experience without changing Minecraft's core gameplay.
