a Forge mod adding hardcore air mechanics.
- Below Y=0 and above Y=128, and in the Nether, you slowly lose air.
- In the End, there's no air at all.
- You can protect yourself with Potions of Free Breathing (which were renamed from Water Breathing), or with Respirators and Air Bladders.
- Create little pockets of tepid safety for yourself with Soul Fire, Soul Torches, or Soul Campfires. Or, restore your lungs with a Bottle of Soulfire.
- Safety Lanterns change color in your inventory and in the world to tell you the air quality around you. Or dye them for decoration!
- Drowned will choke the air out of you on attacking
- And as a fun bonus, right-click a torch to make it spew particles, perhaps to signal the exit to a cave.
All of these features are configurable: you can change the air quality at different levels in any dimension, and disable any of the mechanics.
