Temperature999 Plugin FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if I'm getting too hot or too cold?
Watch the boss bar at the top of your screen—it shows your current body temperature and changes color as you heat up or cool down. You'll also hear panting sounds if you overheat or a freezing sound if you get too cold, and your movement will slow down when either extreme is reached.
Why am I taking damage in the snow even with armor on?
Metal armors like iron and diamond actually let cold in, so they won't protect you in snowy biomes. Switch to leather armor or turtle shells instead, which provide warmth and will keep you safe from freezing damage.
What's the fastest way to warm up when I'm freezing?
Stand near a heat source like a campfire, furnace, or lava block—these will raise your body temperature quickly. If you're far from any of these, moving to a warmer biome or going indoors during the day will also help.
How do I cool down when overheating in a desert?
Walk on ice or snow blocks to drop your temperature, or find shade and wait for nighttime when the world cools down naturally. You can also travel to a colder biome like a taiga or snowy area for immediate relief.
Does rain affect my temperature?
Yes—rain makes you wet and causes your body heat to drop faster than normal, so you'll freeze more quickly in rainy weather even in mild biomes. Seek shelter under a roof or in a cave when it rains if you're already cold.
Can I hide the temperature bar if it's annoying?
Yes, type `/temp toggle` to turn the boss bar on or off whenever you want. You can toggle it back on anytime using the same command.
What biomes are the hottest and coldest?
Deserts are the hottest biomes and will make you overheat quickly, while snowy taigas are the coldest and will freeze you fast. Use `/temp biomes list` to see the full temperature rating for every biome on your server.
How do I build a base that stays at a safe temperature year-round?
Place heat sources like furnaces or campfires inside your base to keep it warm at night and in winter, and design it with good airflow or water features to cool it down during hot days. Building in a temperate biome and avoiding extreme locations will also help maintain a stable temperature.
Can the server owner change how fast I heat up or cool down?
Yes—server owners can adjust the temperature change rate in different worlds and biomes using the config files. If settings feel off, ask your server admin to check the Temperature999 Plugin configuration.
How do I check another player's current temperature?
Type `/temp check [player name]` to see their body heat, or just `/temp check` to see your own. Only admins can use `/temp admin set` to manually change a player's temperature.
