About this Mod
By default, Elder Guardians apply Mining Fatigue III to every player within 50 blocks — even through walls. This mod changes that behavior: the effect is only applied if the Elder Guardian can actually see you.
Simply break line of sight by stepping behind a wall, a block, or any solid structure, and the Elder Guardian loses its grip on you. This makes Ocean Monuments feel more fair and strategic, rewarding players who plan their approach carefully.
Features:
Mining Fatigue only triggers when the Elder Guardian has direct line of sight to the player
Fully server-side, no client mod required
Lightweight, no configuration needed
Compatible with other mods that modify Ocean Monuments
