📖 Overview

Lava Rising is a dynamic Fabric mod (MC 1.21.5) that introduces volcanic eruptions and a rising lava flood. It allows you to:

Generate craters and volcanoes within a selected radius,
Raise lava from a start Y-level (lavaStartY) to an end Y-level (lavaEndY),
Support Hold (pause at peak) and Retreat (lava recedes) phases,
Protect builds — no placing blocks above lava or outside the effect area
Survival mode: volcanoes spawn first, followed by a countdown and the lava rise.

LavaFlowManager.clearLayerWithQueue now supports both ring-less and ring-preserving modes based on the cleanWithoutRing setting.

Survival & Timing
- Delay before lava rise (startDelayTicks)
- Hold duration at top (holdDurationTicks)
- Rise and retreat intervals (riseIntervalTicks, retreatIntervalTicks)
Volcanoes & Craters
- Toggle volcano generation (craterModeEnabled)
- Number of volcanoes (craterCount)
- Volcano height (volcanoHeight)
- Safe radius around players (volcanoPlayerSafeRadius)
- Irregular shape toggle (irregularVolcanoShape)
- Particle interval (particleIntervalTicks)
Volcano Block Composition
Percentage weights for:
- Obsidian, Basalt, Coal Ore, Iron Ore, Copper Ore, Magma Block, Lava
General & Protection
- Effect radius (radius)
- Lava start Y (lavaStartY)
- Lava end Y (lavaEndY)
- Overwrite mode: lava destroys all blocks except protected ones
- Protected categories:
  - Wood structures (logs, planks, chests, furnaces…)
  - Stone structures (stone, bricks, slabs, stairs…)
  - Decorative blocks (rugs, plants, paintings…)
  - Utility blocks (crafting tables, anvils, blast furnaces…)

When enabled, lava replaces all blocks in its path except those in protected categories, allowing:

/lavarise debug
Shows current state (Rising, Retreating, Idle), Y level, and configured range [lavaStartY…lavaEndY].

/lavarise start
Immediately spawns craters/volcanoes (if enabled) and begins the lava-rise countdown.

/lavarise stop
Fully resets the mod’s state—queues cleared, flags reset.

(In Survival mode use /lavarise startsurvival for the survival workflow.)

Lava Rising delivers fully customizable, multilingual “lava flood” gameplay—perfect for survival challenges, PvP arenas, or cinematic events!
