Frequently asked questions

How do I spawn a basic glowing particle?
Use the particle command with a static particle type, specifying position, color (RGB), and size parameters. The mod provides dedicated particle types like `static_particle` that accept color and scale arguments directly in the command syntax.
What's the difference between static and oriented particles?
Static particles glow uniformly in all directions, while oriented particles face a specific direction with independent X and Y scaling, letting you create directional effects like beams or arrows. Oriented particles also support billboard rotation and post-rotation passes for more complex visuals.
Can I make particles animate over time?
Yes—the mod supports multi-step animation sequences where you define keyframes with custom timing between each step. You pass these as particle arguments in your command, allowing smooth color shifts, size changes, or alpha fading across multiple ticks.
How do I detect when a player clicks or uses an item?
The mod adds mouse action predicates that work in execute conditions to detect attack clicks, item picking, item use, and scroll actions. Use these predicates in your datapack logic to trigger commands or effects based on player input.
