Definitely not beacon

The first beta release of Definitely Not Beacon, an adaptation of Minecraft’s Beacon built for Hytale 0.7.5.

Build your pyramid, choose your powers and customize its luminous beam with colored crystals and Hytale’s native particle effects.

Included in this release

• Four pyramid levels, unlocking stronger powers and a larger horizontal radius, from 60 to 150 blocks.
• Six powers: Speed, Haste, Resistance, Jump Boost, Strength and Regeneration.
• Secondary upgrades: at level IV, add Regeneration or upgrade your primary power to level II.
• Colored beams: small crystals tint the beam from their height upward, with smooth transitions and sequential color mixing.
• Native visual effects: a luminous beam reaching Y=320, with a rotating base and matching colors.
• Crafting recipes for the Beacon and its iron blocks.
• Eight displayed payment options: iron, adamantite, bronze, cobalt, copper, gold, silver and thorium ingots.
• Persistent power selection, an English and Spanish interface, and stacks of up to 100.
• Support for single-player worlds and dedicated servers.

How it works

Build the pyramid using this mod’s iron blocks. Hytale’s native iron blocks do not count.

Powers cover the entire vertical column within their horizontal radius, above and below the Beacon. Overlapping Beacons apply the strongest intensity without stacking bonuses.

A solid block above the Beacon switches off its beam and stops renewing powers. Existing effects keep their remaining duration. Removing the obstruction restores the Beacon without another payment.

Each new power configuration costs one ingot. Closing the menu returns unused deposits, and your confirmed selection survives restarts.

Installation

Requires Hytale 0.7.5, release patchline. Dedicated servers require Java 25.

Download DefinitelyNotBeacon-ht0.7.5-0.1.0-beta.jar and place it in:

• Local worlds: %APPDATA%\Hytale\UserData\Mods
• Dedicated servers: the server’s mods folder.

For local worlds, enable Definitely Not Beacon in the world’s Mods settings.

Install with the game and server closed. When updating, remove the previous JAR, keep only one version installed and fully restart the server and clients.
