Description


Natural Disasters is the official disaster systems mod from the Hyperion mod-pack ( https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/hyperion, bringing a full suite of environmental and spaceship-board catastrophes to Minecraft 1.12.2.


Environmental Disasters

  • Volcanic Eruptions: Fuji-shaped mountains grow block by block from the ground up, complete with lava flows, ash clouds and ambient smoke. Configurable eruption frequency per dimension.
  • Earthquakes: Magnitude-scaled seismic events with screen shake, surface fissures, Riedel shears and tension cracks. Duration and fault size scale with magnitude (M8 = 16 seconds, longer fissures and wider ruptures).
  • Meteorite Impacts, Projectile meteorites streak through the sky, carve craters and send shockwaves across the landscape. Multiple meteorite types configurable. Shield blocks protect areas from impact.
  • Sand Dune Migration: Dust storms reshape sandy terrain over time. Configurable frequency and duration per dimension.
  • Ice Geysers: Erupt from the surface and spray ice particles into the air.
  • Lava Geysers: Burst from exposed lava vents with fire and molten spray.
  • Acid Rain: Corrosive rainfall that damages exposed blocks and players.
  • Ash Fall: Dense volcanic ash showers that obscure vision and coat the environment.
  • Lightning Storms: Intense, frequent lightning strikes configurable per dimension.

Spaceship Hull Breach System

  • Vacuum Leaks: Define sealed compartments with BFS (flood-fill). Breaking a hull block triggers suction, oxygen drain and space-exposure effects. Supports vent blocks, custom sealable/non-sealable blocks, locked geometry and per-player effect bypass.
  • Spark Damage: Electrical sparks burst from registered blocks, dealing fire damage in bursts. Repairable in-game.
  • Steam Pipe Bursts: Pressurized steam vents spray particles, deal heat damage and play hissing sounds. Right-click with redstone dust to begin a 10-second repair (boss bar countdown). Repaired pipes still leak at ~28% intensity and 4× lower frequency for a configurable duration.
  • Structural Shake: Hull vibration effects that disorient players during active damage events.
