Dante's inferno
Create a Dante-inspired Nether Hell: circles reflecting sins, judgment, and hostile realms; upon death, descend through torment layers; each layer mirrors...
00—neoforgeServer1.21.1mod
Dante's Inferno is a server-only NeoForge 1.21.1 plugin that turns every death into a deeper descent through nine infernal circles. The mod reads player stats and inventory to judge dominant sins (greed, wrath, treachery, and more), then scales each layer’s punishment accordingly.
Key behaviors
- Each death queues the next circle; on respawn you are pulled to a safe-but-harsh nether anchor for that layer.
- Circles carry themed effects and spawn a vanilla “judge” mob; the harsher your related sin score, the stronger the effect and boss.
- Messages explain your circle, its sin, and the sin score that triggered it so players feel the judgment loop.
- Progress persists across deaths; reaching circle nine keeps you in treachery until an admin resets you.
Commands
/inferno status(anyone): shows your current circle, total descents, and a sin score breakdown./inferno status <player>(ops): inspect another player./inferno reset <player>(ops): clear a player’s inferno progress and sin snapshot.
Implementation notes & limits
- Uses only vanilla mobs/effects and keeps all logic server-side; no custom registries or client hooks are required.
- Nether is preferred; if unavailable, you stay in the current dimension but still receive the circle effects and judge.
- Safe spawn search tries nearby columns around your anchor, but hostile terrain can still make layers dangerous by design.
