In this new, much cooler environment, the virus, initially only being a threat to fungi, developed a powerful symbiotic relationship with the vanilla Zombie Virus, enabling it to form it's own branch of "multi-cellular" life, as well as now be a threat to plants and animals, forcing its victims to grotesquely mutate while their bodies attempt to develop an immunity to the virus-combination. If the zombie virus can infect it, then so can the Crimson Curse. Five days after first starting a world, a Bloodlink will spawn and begin transforming the landscape around itself into one suitable for its needs: nutrients, protection, and reproduction. While as long as you don't approach its claimed area, it initially won't have much of an effect on your survival experience, one Bloodlink will soon become two, then three, then ten, and next thing you know, something that were once only airborne particles are evolving and breaking down the walls of your base. Unless you fight back and destroy the Bloodlink(s) while they are one or few, this infection can easily snowball into a force near-unstoppable with only Vanilla gear, but killing these new mobs can give you access to crafting materials to make much stronger equipment. In order to survive, you must have a good grip on Vanilla game mechanics (including [block hardness](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Breaking#Blocks_by_hardness)), and be mentally prepared for the onslaught that will soon ensue. Monitor your armor durability, build your base in clever locations and out of strong materials, know that these enemies are immune to fire damage (from the nether being their origin) but weak to the Smite Enchantment (due to the reliance on the Zombie Virus), and be careful where you venture. Good luck. ## READ THESE ![You should see a red and gray book when you first load up a world. If you don't then you installed something incorrectly....](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/2db2f974f5dea5186fe6e885084d8bb3cc69429d_0.webp) - When opening a world with this data pack/mod, you may encounter a warning message. Just click "I know what I'm doing!" since nothing is actually at risk, but the game thinks there is. This issue will be fixed soon. - This project is currently NOT compatible with most mods that add custom blocks. The game will still work, but the infection is unable to break or infect certain blocks. However, for Version 1.1.2+, [Biomes O' Plenty](https://modrinth.com/mod/biomes-o-plenty/version/zHgtLmUg), [Friends&Foes](https://modrinth.com/mod/friends-and-foes), and [Traveler's Backpack](https://modrinth.com/mod/travelersbackpack) are guarenteed to interact with the infection as intended. - To remove/minimize the required time spent doing more "grindy" tasks, using gravestone and veinminer mods/data packs is recommended. ## CONTENT This section is contains a short summary for everything that this mod/datapack has to offer.

MAIN CONTENT

### SYSTEMS - **Phase**: Dictates the power and events of the infection. There are a total of 7 Phases (-1 to 5). Some events include spawning Bloodlinks, Nodes, Raids, Titan Eggs, or evolving Bloodlinks. Further down, the individual impacts of each Phase are more thouroughly discussed. - **Points**: Control what phase the infection is in. Gained whenever the infection reaches its Mass Threshold. - **Mass**: A temporary scoring system that increases from infecting blocks and mobs. Once the amount of mass reaches a certain threshold, it resets back to 0, a certain event dictated by the current Phase occurs, and one Point is added. Mass can become a negative number by using Crimson Siphoners & Blighters (explained below), which causes Bloodlinks to take 1hp of damage every 20 seconds until they die. - **Raids**: Can randomly occur when the Mass Threshold is reached from Phases 2-5. Raids will seek out a random player in the world, and spawn a Raidlink and Raidlink Pods nearby. If the Raid isn't stopped by killing the Raidlink, a new infected area can form. The number of enemies spawned per raid increases with each phase. - **Alert System**: Whenever a Stage 3 Bloodlink enters Attack Mode, it will cause ALL Bloodlinks in a 75-block radius around the mob it aggroed on to also enter Attack Mode. Stage 3 Bloodlinks also have a chance to enter Attack Mode whenever a Crimson Mob is attacked (10%) or Node is destroyed (33%) within a 75-block radius. ### STATUS/POTION EFFECTS - **Bloodlink Power**: give a unique boost to Crimson Mobs' attributes and/or abilities, depending on the mob. Doesn't affect Axis Mobs, Raidlinks, and Titans. - **Fragility**: Whenever an entity with this effect take damage, they will take additional damage equal to the level of this effect (Note that this effect can only apply additional damage every 0.25 seconds). - **Wound-Stasis**: Whenever damaged, entities with this effect will have their maximum health set to their current health, rendering them unable to heal. - **Snaring**: Completely immobilizes mobs, making them unable to move or attack, and pulls flying enemies to the ground. Players with this effect will only be unable to walk, and their jump height will be drastically decreased. ### CRIMSONIFIED & DECAYED MOBS ![Crimsonified Mobs](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/10431967ffd1f51b1322ff40422c629094cdfef2.png) ![Decayed Mobs](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/06633206c0eca32933fd481c65f5987f6c3c306c.png) Crimsonified Mobs spawn randomly, or when a regular mob walks into an infected area or nearby another Crimson Mob. Decayed Mobs are stronger variants of Crimsonified Mobs, spawning randomly from Phases 3-5. - **Human**: Strong melee combatant. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Attack Damage and Movement Speed. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. - **Skeleton**: Crimsonified shoot poisonous projectiles, Decayed shoot withering projectiles. _Bloodlink Power_ makes projectiles explode and leave an effect cloud if they miss. _Drops_ Infected Flesh and Arrows. - **Husk**: Fast melee combatant capable of climbing up blocks. _Bloodlink Power_ causes nearby victims to receive Slowness. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. - **Villager**: Applies Wound-Stasis with each attack. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Attack Damage and Movement speed, and gives nearby victims Poison. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. - **Drowned**: An incredibly fast swimmer with similar stats to the Infected Human. Trident variants swim slower, but throw Crimson Tridents that when they hit an enemy, will drag their victim to the ocean floor. _Bloodlink Power_ makes non-Trident variants pull victims downwards when attacking, and Trident variants throw three Tridents. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. - **Bogged**: While above-ground, is stationary, and will send its Roots to dig after you, which will apply Fragility and Poison. After some time, they will submerge and dig after you, attempting to melee you. _Bloodlink Power_ makes them spawn an additional Root upon emerging. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. - **Wither Skeleton**: Has a concealed tendril in one arm that emerges when they get aggroed, and they will use to pull in their target, then use their other arm to deal heavy melee damage. _Bloodlink Power_ makes Pull Attack do more damage and apply Slowness and Mining Fatigue. _Drops_ Infected Flesh, and rarely a Wither Skeleton Skull. ### AXIS MOBS ![Axis Mobs](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/4c52db25676be99551067aa848be3fd8b2912c76.png) Key mobs to helping develop the Infection. - **Bloodlink**: The root enemy of the infection; after 5 days (or 100 minutes of play time if you sleep through the nights), spawns in a random location, and infects the area around it, turning it into a Crimson Infection biome, and later a Crimson Decay biome. They have 3 Stages that dictate their strength. Stage 1 Bloodlinks cannot infect through blocks with a hardness of 5 or greater, and Stage 2 Bloodlinks with a hardness of 10 or greater, but Stage 3 Bloodlinks have no such limitation. When threatened, they will enter Attack Mode, spawn Bloodlink Pods and Bloodlink Sentries around themselves, and periodically give nearby Crimson Invaders Bloodlink Power. Bloodlinks can only enter Attack mode if there is at least 150 Mass, which they will consume. If the last Bloodlink in a world is killed, there will be a cooldown before the next one can spawn (however Raids can override this). This cooldown will be 4 days, then 3, then 2, then 1 day every time after. _Drops_ (Bloodlink Nerves and Bloodlink Membranes; Stage 1), (Undeveloped Bloodlink Brains and Bloodlink Membranes; Stage 2), (Developed Bloodlink Brain; Stage 3). - **Distributor**: A stationary, yet dangerously intelligent enemy with an enormous range of abilities. Spawns in Phases 3+, when 3 Decayed mobs are nearby one-another, and another Distributor is not already nearby. These mobs will passively set livestock-bait traps, summon Bloodlink Sentries, and give mobs Bloodlink Power. Whenever the Mass Threshold is reached, Distributors are able to grab information on players' whereabouts/actions, and have a chance to dictate the infection into performing the worst-possible event for that player (for instance, if the player is visiting a village or is at their base, a Raid will be more likely to spawn). Furthermore, Distributors also allow the infection to cause multiple events simultaneously (Depending on what the Distributor(s) chose for the infection to do, there is also a chance for Nodes or a Titan Egg to spawn, if the Phase permits). After the event occurs and the Mass drops back to 0, each Distributor will grant 100 Mass to the Infection, capping at 50% of what the Infection would currently need to reach the Mass Threshold again. When attacked, Distributors will attempt to defend themselves by teleporting a nearby Crimson Invader to themselves, and grant said mob Bloodlink Power. It is ideal to kill them in the least amount of hits possible. _Drops_ Infected Flesh. ### BLOODLINK-PROTECTORS ![Bloodlink Protectors](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/3e9b69689da97d52d51a089bb751c1d6a3df8aa9_0.webp) - **Bloodlink Mercenary**: Weak Melee combatant that passively spawns in infected areas. _Bloodlink Power_ gives themsevles and nearby Crimson Mobs Wind-Charged. _Drops_ Bloodlink Membranes. - **Bloodlink Pod**: Spawned when a Bloodlink entered Attack Mode. Emerges from the ground, and teleports a random Crimson Invader to its location, then retreats. - **Bloodlink Sentry**: Spawned when a Bloodlink entered Attack Mode. Emerges from the ground, and shoots projectiles at enemies that give a series of debuffs. _Bloodlink Power_ increases melee Attack Damage, and triples ranged attack Fire Rate. _Drops_ Armored Scales, Claw Fragments, Metallic Bones, and Toxic Essence. ### RAIDERS Spawned when a Raid happens. - **Raidlink**: Raidlinks do not immediately do anything, but if left alone for 3 minutes, they will transform into a Bloodlink. They must be killed to defeat a Raid, which removes 500 Mass from the Infection. _Drops_ Bloodlink Nerves and Bloodlink Membranes. - **Raidlink Pod**: Falls from the sky, and spawns a random Primal Biome Mob.\ - **Evolved Raidlink Pod**: Falls from the sky, and spawns a random Evolved Biome Mob. ### PRIMAL BIOME MOBS ![Primal Biome Mobs](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/ac67fe65f10e013012a2e2cca90c3a0c6fc0b667.png) Mobs forged in the Crimson Decay biome, built out of trillions of Crimson Virus particles, trying to mimic how cells function in multicellular life. - **Crimson Worm**: Slow, but heavy-hitting melee combatant. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Attack Damage and Movement Speed. _Drops_ Berserk Essence and Claw Fragments. - **Raptor**: Melee combatant that applies Poison and Weakness with each attack. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Movement Speed and the effect levels of Weakness and Poison. _Drops_ Toxic Essence and Metallic Bones. - **Rusher**: Fast melee combatant capable of occasionally dashing, dealing increased attack damage. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Dash Attack Movement Speed and Attack Damage. _Drops_ Berserk Essence and Metallic Bones. - **Pyrobomber**: Slow Melee Combatant that when it gets to half-health, breaks into a sprint and explodes on a nearby enemy. _Bloodlink Power_ renders them invulnerable while exploding (making them able to explode every tick if allowed to). _Drops_ Explosive Essence and Armored Scales. - **Sky Bomber**: Flying enemy that drops powerful bombs on enemies, which can destroy blocks with a hardness less than 5. Sometimes swoops in for a melee attack. _Bloodlink Power_ drastically increases their Bomb Fire Rate. _Drops_ Explosive Essence and Armored Scales. - **Knight**: A heavily armored mob that has trouble moving under the sheer weight of its spike-covered shell. Grants nearby Crimson Invaders a damage reduction, and when an enemy is nearby, will curl into its shell. When curled up, Knights have an 80% damage reduction, and will reflect damage back at surrounding enemies. Try to damage this mob before they curl up. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Movement Speed and Attack Damage, and gives nearby Crimson Mobs replenishing Absorption. _Drops_ Berzerk Essence and Armored Scales. - **Devourer**: A large flying mob that swoops down and grabs an enemy in its mouth, then flies upwards while eating/digesting its victim alive. Crouch to escape, but be aware that if you time it wrong, you can get picked back up again. _Bloodlink Power_ makes them dash forward upon taking damage. _Drops_ Toxic Essence and Claw Fragments. ### EVOLVED BIOME MOBS ![Evolved Biome Mobs](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/2cc5354ae4f663e954e4951fdb11959f9f1c30a9.png) Significantly stronger forms of the Primal Biome Mobs, constructed in the Crimson Decay biome with the assistance of Stage 2 & 3 Bloodlinks, designed to seek and destroy. - **Emperor**: Evolution of Crimson Worm. When at high health, shoots Withering and piercing projectiles. With decreasing health, its Attack Damage and Movement Speed periodically increase. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Movement Speed. _Drops_ Berserk Essence, Claw Fragments, and an Emperor Eye. - **Harbinger**: Evolution of Raptor. Summons Toxic Clouds that chase after enemies, and give them a series of debuffs, including a stackable Fragility effect. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Movement Speed, doubles its Cloud Fire Rate, and spawns a Raptor along with a Cloud. _Drops_ Toxic Essence, Metallic Bones, and a Harbinger Storm Chamber. - **Mangler**: Evolution of Rusher. Occasionally performs Dash Attacks that rapidly damage nearby enemies, ignoring I-Frames. _Bloodlink Power_ triples Dash Attack recharge speed, and makes the Mangler not give off a warning sound before dashing. _Drops_ Berserk Essence, Metallic Bones, and a Mangler Spear Head. - **Napalmer**: Evolution of Pyrobomber. Shoots out a barrage of projectiles that explode when landing near an enemy, and otherwise set the area ablaze. At half-health, they break into a sprint, and fire projectiles twice as quickly. _Bloodlink Power_ makes projectiles that don't explode spawn a Napalmer Demon, which chases after victims, leaving a trail of Fire. _Drops_ Explosive Essence, Armored Scales, and a Napalmer Cannon Head. - **Pummeler**: Evolution of Sky Bomber. A Flying mob that rapidly fires explosive charges at distant enemies, but has low hitpoints in comparison to other Evolved Biome Mobs. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Fire Rate and makes projectiles unable to be destroyed before exploding. _Drops_ Explosive Essence, Armored Scales, and a Pummeler Tendril. - **Juggernaut**: Evolution of Knight. Instead of only curling up when an enemy is nearby, Juggernauts will also curl up whenever they receive damage, and stay curled up for 1.5x as long. When curled up, with the unique plates on their back, Juggernauts will deflect ALL Impact Projectiles back at the shooter, transforming them into the same projectile Decayed Skeletons shoot. _Bloodlink Power_ increases Movement Speed and Attack Damage, and gives nearby Crimson Mobs replenishing Absorption. _Drops_ Berzerk Essence, Armored Scales, and a Juggernaut Plate. - **Kraken**: Evolution of Devourer. When attacked, will spit a barrage of acid balls in the direction its moving. Note that these acid balls leave a lingering cloud that is able to heal the Kraken, along with other Crimson Invaders. _Bloodlink Power_ increases effect level of Acid Balls, and gives the Kraken a chance to release Acid Balls if any nearby Crimson Mob takes damage. _Drops_ Toxic Essence, Claw Fragments, and a Kraken Maw. - **Drill**: When not moving for a few seconds, Evolved Biome Mobs can periodically spawn Drills. Drills will break blocks with a hardness less than 5 to reach their targeted enemy. Upon reaching them or a block it cannot break, will explode, either dealing damage, giving a series of debuffs, or teleporting a random Evolved Biome Mob to its location. Drills will ignore storage blocks and treat them as if they don't exist. ### TITANS ![Titans](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/70edfaca8210fe29e4e6b3f42ff4c993a3ed2f33_0.webp) Mobs spawned from Titan Eggs. Basically the Final Bosses of the Infection. - **Osiris**: Initially can only be damaged from its brain extruding from its head. Once the brain is “popped,” it will gain Movement Speed and Attack Damage, and will periodically spawn Biome Mobs around it and give said mobs Bloodlink Power. Once at half-health, this ability will double in frequency, and the Osiris will once again gain Movement Speed and Attack Damage. Drops a Developed Bloodlink Brain and an Osiris Claw. - **Titan Drill**: When not moving for a few seconds, Titans can periodically spawn Titan Drills. Titan Drills will break blocks with a hardness less than 10 to reach their targeted enemy. Upon reaching them or a block it cannot break, will explode, either dealing damage, giving a series of debuffs, or teleporting a random Titan to its location. Titan Drills are significantly stronger than their Evolved Biome Mob variants. Titan Drills will ignore storage blocks and treat them as if they don't exist. ### STRUCTURES - **Bloodlink Shield**: Stage 2 and 3 Bloodlinks form fully-encompassing shields of Blackstone or Obsidian, respectively. When exiting Attack Mode, Bloodlinks will repair any damage done to their shields. When a Bloodlink is killed while in attack Mode, their shield will rapidly decompose. - **Node**: the most common structure seen in an infected area. They passively provide the infection with Mass (1 Mass/Node every 3 seconds). Nodes also provide Biome Mobs that spawn nearby with a permanent boost, either being a Health buff, Movement Speed buff, Attack Damage buff, or the Infested potion effect. Break the Node Core (looks like a Redstone Block) to kill the Node, and receive a Node Core, which is vital to many crafting recipes. - **Titan Egg**: Titan Eggs are a floating Obisian Egg in the sky, and a slowly-forming spiral of Blackstone. Once the spiral reaches the egg, the egg will hatch and spawn a Titan. Eggs can be killed by mining the Core (looks like a Redstone Block), which will destroy the surrounding Obsidian Casing. It is highly recommended to destroy Titan Eggs before they hatch. ### PHASES - **Phase 0**: This is the Phase the world starts in before the Infection reveals its presence. Crimsonified and Decayed mobs are unable to spawn during this Phase, and reaching the Mass Threshold does nothing. (-∞--1 Points, Mass Threshold: 1000 Mass) - **Phase I**: As soon as the 1st Bloodlink spawns, the world will immediately enter Phase I. Once a second Bloodlink spawns via Bloodlink-Reproduction, vanilla mobs will have a chance to spawn as their Crimsonified variant. Reaching the Mass Threshold allows for Bloodlink-Reproduction. (0-9 Points, Mass Threshold: 1000 Mass) - **Phase II**: The Infection will become noticeably more aggressive during this Phase, and vanilla mobs have a slightly higher chance to spawn Crimsonified. Reaching the Mass Threshold now allows for Bloodlink-Reproduction (12.5%), Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 2 (12.5%), Raids (12.5%), and Node-Spawning (62.5%). Raids will spawn 7 Raidlink Pods. (10-39 Points, Mass Threshold: 3000 Mass) - **Phase III**: The Infection will now focus more on investing its power for later, rather than outright attacks. This Phase now permits vanilla mobs to spawn as both their Crimsonified _and_ Decayed variants, and multiple Decayed Mobs clustered together can sacrifice themselves to form a Distributor. In addition, Raids will now spawn 7 Raidlink Pods and 1 Evolved Raidlink Pod. Reaching the Mass Threshold now allows for Bloodlink-Reproduction (8.33%), Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 2 (8.33%), Raids (8.33%), and Node-Spawning (75%). (40-149 Points, Mass Threshold: 6000 Mass) - **Phase IV**: Vanilla mobs' chances to spawn as a Crimsonified or Decayed variant once again increase, and Raids now spawn with 9 Raidlink Pods and 1 Evolved Raidlink Pod. Reaching the Mass Threshold now allows for Bloodlink-Reproduction (7.14%), Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 2 (7.14%), Raids (14.28%), Node-Spawning (64.29%), and Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 3 (7.14%). Note that Stage 3 Bloodlinks give you access to Purified Gear, but will also make entering/interacting with an infected area significantly more dangerous due to their Reinforcement system. (150-299 Points, Mass Threshold: 8000 Mass) - **Phase V**: The Infection has reached its maximum power, plunging the world into an eternal thunderstorm (unless the Phase is lowered), blocking out the sky with the immense number of virus particles in the upper atmosphere. Vanilla mobs' chances to spawn as a Crimsonified or Decayed variant increase again, and Raids now spawn 9 Raidlink Pods and 3 Evolved Raidlink Pods. Reaching the Mass Threshold now allows for Bloodlink-Reproduction (6.67%), Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 2 (6.67%), Raids (13.33%), Node-Spawning (60%), Bloodlinks evolving to Stage 3 (6.67%), and a Titan Egg forming (6.67%). (300+ Points, Mass Threshold: 7000 Mass) - **Phase -1**: Can only be entered and exited through the Unstable Core (explained below). Causes the Infection to mutate in a way where it will self-destruct, causing all Axis Mobs to be smited via lightning bolt, and Biome Mobs to self-cleanse the land that they arose from. ### ITEM DROPS ![Item-Drops](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/c409b15f5c10570d2214becd71e6b86dfe9a3102.png) - Infected Flesh - Berserk Essence - Explosive Essence - Toxic Essence - Claw Fragment - Armored Scale - Metallic Bone - Mangler Spear Head - Napalmer Cannon Head - Harbinger Storm Chamber - Emperor Eye - Pummeler Tendril - Kraken Maw - Juggernaut Plate - Node Core - Bloodlink Membrane - Bloodlink Nerves - Undeveloped Bloodlink Brain - Developed Bloodlink Brain - Osiris Claw ### CRAFTABLE ITEMS ![Craftable Items](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/b5831f0b4d71f880d30272b8fe87d68213c2d691.png) - **Crimson Survival Guide**: Provides all of the Project’s crafting recipes.

This item can also be used to bring the infection back to Phase I.

CREATIVE MODE

There are spawn eggs, along with other Creative Mode items for players to interact with, allowing people to better-get a feel for what the mod/data pack has to offer, without needing to play through it first. While there is still no Creative Mode inventory section (an unfortunate limitation of data packs), there are some basic commands players can use to get a hold of specific items: - **/function cc_loot:everything**: gives everything mentioned below (excluding the Protection Block). - **/function cc_loot:crimson_survival_guide**: gives the Crimson Survival Guide - **/function cc_loot:enchantments**: gives a chest containing all the mod's custom enchantments. - **/function cc_loot:intermediate_crafting**: gives a chest containing all craftable items that are used for further crafting. - **/function cc_loot:mob_loot_common**: gives a chest with all common mob loot. - **/function cc_loot:mob_loot_evolved**: gives a chest with all evolved mob loot. - **/function cc_loot:mob_loot_special**: gives a chest with all special mob loot. - **/function cc_loot:mob_loot_all**: gives a chest with all mob loot. - **/function cc_loot:primal_gear**: gives a chest with all Primal gear. - **/function cc_loot:special_gear**: gives a chest with all special/miscellaneous gear (Infection Gauge, Mangler Spear, etc.). - **/function cc_loot:purified_gear**: gives a chest with all purified gear. - **/function cc_loot:spawn_eggs**: gives a chest containing the spawn eggs to the mod's mobs. - **/function cc_loot:infection_gauge**: gives the infection gauge item. - **/function cc_loot:protection_block {Radius:x}**: gives a command block that when placed, will prevent a certain radius from being infected. Change the x-value in the command to set the desired radius of blocks. IMPORTANT: If you don't want a constant spam of command block output, run this command: "/gamerule CommandBlockOutput false".

GAMEPLAY COMMANDS

There are a few commands players can use to alter the current state of the infection and check the infection's progress. - **/function cc_cmd:begin_infection**: If there is no Bloodlink already in the world, this command will force-spawn one, thus starting the infection. - **/function cc_cmd:set_mass {Mass:x}**: Sets the infection's Mass to the value x. - **/function cc_cmd:set_points {Points:x}**: Sets the infection's Points to the value x. - **/function cc_cmd:set_phase {Phase:x}**: Sets the infection's Phase to the value x. Only works with values -1 to 5. - **/function cc_cmd:mass_threshold**: Depending on the infection's Phase, this command will trigger a random Infection Event (evolving Bloodlinks, spawning Nodes, etc.). Can only be used once per second. - **/function cc_cmd:get_infection_data**: will tell the player who ran the command the infection's current Phase, Points, and Mass.

CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

Since this project is a datapack, proper configuration options cannot easily be implemented. However, these are some commands that you can run that will automatically update how the mod will behave for the world you're playing on, without needing to restart the game or world. - **/function cc_config:max_infection_speed {Cap:x}**: Sets the maximum amount of areas that the infection can infect in one tick to x.

Q&A

- **May I make a video about this mod?** Yes. Just make sure to provide credit. - **Will the Forge loader be supported again?** Yes. As soon as I figure out how to fix the framerate lag issue if Sodium isn't installed, I will make the project support Forge again. (Also if you _really_ want to, you _could_ download the datapack and use an converter to package it as a Forge mod, but this isn't recommended.) - **Instead of using spawn eggs, is it possible to spawn mobs via command?** Not all mobs, but most can be spawned using the following command (using Crimson Worm as an example): /summon marker ~ ~ ~ {Tags:[Crimson_Worm,Spawn_Egg]} (Note that to spawn Sky Bomber, you must type "Raid_Bomber"). - **Why is the Resource Pack also required for the mod?** Many mob's custom models work through EMF and ETF, but when these are packaged into a mod, they seem to work unreliably. - **Will you port to 1.20.1?** I don't know yet... The issue is that many things used in this mod/data pack were introduced in the Tricky Trials update, and due to technical reasons, I may not be able to do it without depending on some sort of backporting mod. - **The mobs aren't visually displaying correctly... Why?** Because this mod is a data pack, it uses vanilla mobs with altered behaviors for many of its mobs. So, if there are any mods or data packs installed that give mobs like zombies or husks certain items, it may mess up this mod's models. - **Why do none of the crafting recipes show up correctly in JEI or REI?** That issue has to do with this mod being a data pack. For now, use the Crimson Survival Guide for the crafting recipes.
