Void Pressure - Framework for Modpacks

Void Pressure turns your Minecraft world into something that responds. Every mob death adds tension. Every action nudges the world closer to its next state. At first nothing seems different — until it suddenly is. Void Pressure doesn’t tell you what should happen. It gives you the tools to decide when, how, and why the world pushes back.

What does it do?

Void Pressure tracks a single world-wide value called Pressure.

This value can:

Increase when mobs die
(player kills and passive deaths can be balanced separately)
Optionally decay over time
Be capped per minute to avoid farming abuse
Trigger events, effects, or mob changes at specific pressure thresholds

The mod itself does not force any gameplay.
It simply provides the tools.

Event System (fully configurable)

You can define different types of events that react to pressure values.

Command Events

Run any Minecraft command when pressure reaches certain levels.
Perfect for announcements, titles, world changes, spawning structures, or custom logic.

Effect Events

Apply potion effects or attribute modifiers to players.
Useful for increasing tension, difficulty, or long-term consequences.

Mob Change Events

Modify mobs globally or selectively:

Health
Armor
Speed
Equipment
Rules based on mob tags, categories, or specific entities

Events can:

Trigger once
Repeat at intervals
Persist permanently

Pressure Altar

Void Pressure includes an optional Pressure Altar that allows players to actively reduce pressure.

Sacrifice items to lower pressure
Fully configurable offerings
Optional XP cost
Cooldowns supported

This makes Pressure a system players can interact with, not just suffer from.

In-Game GUI & HUD

Open the GUI with Shift + V No constant restarts required.

Full in-game GUI for overview and configuration
Shows current pressure and recent changes
Optional HUD with movable position
Trend indicator
Configure everything without opening config files

Who is this mod for?

Void Pressure is designed for:

Modpack creators
Difficulty scaling systems
Long-term progression or tension mechanics
Skyblock, survival, challenge packs, or custom game modes

The idea originated in a Skyblock modpack, but works in any world type.

Current State

Void Pressure is currently in beta.

The core systems are stable and usable, but additional features and extensions are planned for future updates. There is still a long way to go before everything I want for this mod is implemented :)
