About this Mod


PressureMod

PressureMod adds a pressure-based survival mechanic to Minecraft.
The system does not aim for medical accuracy, but tries to be as realistic as possible within the limits of gameplay.

The mod affects the player depending on:

  • altitude and depth,
  • dimension,
  • ambient temperature,
  • equipment and armor,
  • selected pressure physics mode.

Pressure Modes

The mod includes two pressure modes.

Simple Mode (Default)

A simple and easy-to-understand pressure system based on:

  • player Y level,
  • current dimension,
  • total armor protection.

If the armor protection is too low, negative effects are applied.

Important:
Pressure does not affect the player if there is open sky above their head.


Realistic Mode (Beta)

An experimental mode with a more complex and dynamic pressure system.

Each player has a parameter called TC (Tick Pressure):

  • normal range: 100–120,
  • different debuffs are applied outside the normal range,
  • a total of 9 pressure stages.

TC changes over time depending on:

  • biome temperature,
  • depth,
  • dimension,
  • temperature of items held in hand,
  • weather conditions,
  • armor protection level.

The mod also adds a Sphygmomanometer, an item that displays:

  • the player’s current TC value,
  • the current pressure stage.
    The crafting recipe can be found on the images page.

4 ≥ 181 critically_high Confusion III, Weakness II, Slowness II, Blindness I

Weather

Rain or snow without a helmet:
+1 TC every 180 seconds.


Sources that Decrease TC

  • Torches, campfires, magma blocks, lava
  • Hot items held in hand
  • Hot biomes
  • Depth pressure
  • The Nether: -4 TC every 40 seconds if armor protection ≤ 9

Sources that Increase TC

  • Ice and snow-related blocks
  • Cold biomes
  • The End: +4 TC every 40 seconds if armor protection ≤ 9

Cold Dimensions

The End is considered a cold dimension and actively increases TC.


Modpack Compatibility

PressureMod can be safely used in any modpack.
It does not require special configuration and is designed to be compatible with both vanilla-style and heavily modded survival gameplay.

Frequently Asked Questions

PressureMod server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is PressureMod compatible with forge?

PressureMod officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with PressureMod – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PressureMod consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
