Adds rare life crystals that appear in caves between y = -64 and y = 32.<\/p>\n
The default config allows the player to consume 10 max and gain a heart per crystal but both of those numbers can be changed.<\/p>\n
Additional config options are provided to disable generation and also to make the generation more rare or common.<\/p>\n
_Generation Example_<\/p>\n This is a slightly compressed visualiztion of generation with default config. Each floating lava block represents a life crystal at a random height below it.<\/p>\n (There is a slight bias in this example as I had to use an ocean so the blocks could be visible but oceans fit the generation conditions more commonly than other biomes)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/details>\n _Update 1.1:_<\/p>\n Added the Mini Heart Lantern which is also fully configurable, more sizes are to come but for now this is just a test.<\/p>\n (it’s also a very cute block that I think can work in a lot of builds)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/details>\n _Update 1.2:_<\/p>\n Added a few configurable underground structures and rebalanced some generation<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/details>\n _Notes for modpack makers:_<\/p>\n – If you want to give life crystals as rewards or add them to lootables, you need to use “simplelifecrystals:life_crystal_item” as “simplelifecrystals:life_crystal” is the block. They are separated for a reason I’ve forgotten and I don’t fancy rewriting to find out why.<\/p>\n – Most of the structures are just made of stone\/deepslate variants (bricks, walls, slabs, etc) so likely can’t break progression. The heart chamber structure, however, generates with red carpet which could break progression in some finely tuned packs.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n Bonus fun fact, the command “\/item replace entity @a armor.head with simplelifecrystal:life_crystal” makes it look like everyone has cat ears.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Easy and fully configurable Terraria style life crystals<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":140281,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"simple-life-crystals","_minecraft_project_id":"Ufp1ecKC","_minecraft_author":"Tazgirl","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":13930,"_minecraft_follows":11,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"simple-life-crystals.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":336021,"_minecraft_version_count":4,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T23:24:30.214129Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-10-15T00:33:43.844931Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2025-04-06T23:45:44.971051Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/simple-life-crystals","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":140281,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-08T07:47:20+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"1c138e315954e975e3c9aeb3b876a522","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[156,104,89,158,159],"mod_loader":[106,160],"minecraft_version":[36,94,102],"class_list":["post-140280","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-decoration","mod_category-forge","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-worldgen","mod_loader-forge","mod_loader-neoforge","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-20-4","minecraft_version-1-20-6"],"yoast_head":"\nSpoiler<\/summary>\n
