Requires Connector and FFAPI on (neo)forge.
Scattered Shards adds a system of collectible "shards" that can be created via a UI and placed in-world.
Type /shards or use a Shard Tablet any time to view shows obtained and missing shards. There is also a keybind to open the tablet;
it is not bound by default, so you may want to create a default setting for your modpack!
Features:
- Shards can have titles, descriptions, and face art in the form of item stacks or arbitrary textures
- Shards can also have a "hint", which is shown in standard galactic until moused over
- Shards have a "type" e.g. clubs, foil, rare, secret, difficult (data-driven)
- Shard types can have custom names, textures, and collection sounds (resource-driven)
- Shards are arranged into "sets" which can have one shard of each type
- Suggested as installed mod IDs by default, but can be completely arbitrary (locations, skillsets, etc)
Shard Creation
- Run
/shardc creator new [set] [type]to open the shard creator - set can be an arbitary ID- In the shard creator, you can fill in the title, description, hint, and icon for the shard
- If you used an installed mod ID for the set, you can enable "use mod icon" to use the mod icon
- To allow regular players to collect the shard, either:
- Run
/shard block [shard]and place the provided block - this collects the shard when walking over - Place a command block with e.g.
/shard award @p [shard]- this collects the shard for the nearest player
- Run
Shard Types
See Wiki: Creating Shard Types for a tutorial on customizing what types of shards are available to create.
This mod was originally created by Falkreon and acikek as a base mod for BlanketCon '23.
