This mod is currently in an alpha state and is being actively developed. Features may change, and bugs may be present. Use at your own risk in production environments.

About the Tharidia Project

Tharidia is an ambitious Minecraft roleplay server project set in a medieval fantasy world. The server features complex, custom mechanics that significantly diverge from vanilla Minecraft gameplay, creating a unique roleplay experience focused on medieval life with fantasy elements.

The Tharidia Project consists of multiple interconnected mods that work together to create this immersive experience. Simple Weight is one of these modular components, extracted from the main Tharidia Things mod to allow for independent deployment and maintenance alongside other Tharidia mods.

What This Mod Does

Tharidia: Simple Weight implements a realistic weight system that affects player movement based on their inventory load. This mechanic adds a layer of realism and strategic inventory management to the Tharidia roleplay experience.

Core Features

🎒 Dynamic Weight Calculation

• Every item in your inventory has a weight value
• Total weight is calculated in real-time as you pick up or drop items
• Weight values are fully configurable via datapacks

🏃 Movement Speed Penalties

• Carrying heavy loads slows down your movement speed
• The more weight you carry, the slower you move
• Speed reduction is gradual and proportional to your total weight
• Uses Minecraft's attribute system for smooth, compatible speed modifications

🏊 Swimming Restrictions

• When overencumbered, you cannot swim upward in water
• Simulates the difficulty of swimming with heavy equipment
• Adds strategic considerations for water crossings and exploration

⚙️ Datapack Configuration

• Define custom weight values for any item via JSON datapacks
• Server administrators can fine-tune the weight system to their needs
• Default weight values provided for common items (ores, blocks, tools, etc.)

👑 Master/OP Bypass

• Players with operator permissions automatically bypass the weight system
• Useful for server administration and testing
• Can be easily modified in the code if different behavior is desired

🚀 Performance Optimized

• Player batching system distributes processing load across ticks
• Designed to handle large servers with many players
• Minimal performance impact even on busy servers
