We have dubbed this release The Blue Fire Update as its main focus is the addition of blue firebending utilizing Minecraft's new Soul Fire block / particles. Let's check out some of the notable changes!
- Blue Fire
- As mentioned above, this update for 1.16.1 takes advantage of the new Soul Fire block and particles to bring a long awaited feature to the community! "Blue Fire" is a new firebending subelement available to players with the "bending.fire.bluefire" permission node*. Players with this subelement will have all of their fire abilities altered to use new visual effects!
* Note: To use blue fire, players must have the permission node and subelement. The node is used to signify which players have the capability to blue firebend and if they should get it by default when choosing Fire as their element. - Blue fire can also augment the power, range, and cooldowns of fire abilities given the three new config options!
- "Properties.Fire.BlueFire.DamageFactor" - defaults to 1.1 providing a 10% damage boost
- "Properties.Fire.BlueFire.CooldownFactor" - defaults to 0.9 providing a 10% cooldown reduction
- "Properties.Fire.BlueFire.RangeFactor" - defaults to 1.2 providing a 20% range boost
- While we didn't make any Blue Fire exclusive abilities, as a subelement, addon creators will have this option. The process is no different then any other element, simply extend the new BlueFireAbility class and carry on like usual. Most existing Fire addons should already acquire this new Blue Fire behavior without needing to be updated. I wonder what amazing Blue Fire abilities you all have in store for us!
