Set Up Fireflies in Your Forest Build

Location Matters

Fireflies spawn naturally in forests and humid biomes. They won't appear in dry or cold biomes.

How Frequency Works

The number of fireflies depends on your biome's humidity level. Higher humidity biomes will have more fireflies visible at once, creating a denser, more magical atmosphere.

Maximizing the Effect

1. Build in or near a forest or swamp biome

2. Create open spaces where fireflies can be seen

3. Use the effect during dusk or night for best visibility

Fireflies are purely decorative and won't interfere with gameplay. They're perfect for creating ambient lighting in outdoor builds, enchanted forests, or mystical gardens. The color of fireflies varies by biome, so exploring different biomes will show you different firefly colors.
