Description

Beacon Material Scaling redefines beacon progression by rewarding the use of precious materials. Tired of Iron being just as good as Netherite? This mod changes that.

✨ Features

  • 🏆 Material-Based Progression: Higher-tier blocks (Gold, Emerald, Diamond, and Netherite) now grant significant range bonuses.
  • 👁️ Range Visualizer: Includes a new button in the Beacon GUI to toggle a 3D preview of the effect's reach.
  • 🚀 Ultra Lightweight: Pure Mixin-based implementation. No new blocks, no entities, and zero performance impact.
  • 🔧 Vanilla Compatible: Perfectly safe to add to existing worlds.
