Totem Cooldown
A simple server-side mod that adds a configurable cooldown for Totem of Undying usage.
About this Mod
Totem Cooldown is a lightweight server-side Fabric mod that introduces a configurable cooldown for using the Totem of Undying. Instead of allowing players to instantly use multiple totems, this mod enforces a cooldown period between uses, adding a strategic element to survival.
Features:
🕒 Configurable Cooldown – Set the cooldown time in seconds via a simple JSON config file.
✉ Custom Messages – Display cooldown notifications with customizable messages.
🎭 Action Bar or Chat – Choose whether cooldown messages appear in the action bar or chat.
🔄 Fully Server-Side – Works on Fabric 1.20.1 servers without requiring clients to install anything.
Configuration:
After the first launch, the mod generates a configuration file (config/totem_cooldown.json) where you can adjust:
Cooldown Duration (totemCooldownSeconds) – Time in seconds before a player can use another totem.
Custom Message (messageOnCooldown) – Notification message shown when a player attempts to use a totem during cooldown.
Message Display Mode (showMessageInActionBar) – true (action bar) or false (chat message).
Enhance your server’s gameplay by preventing totem spam while maintaining balance! 🚀
