Support me  •  Report bugs / Suggestions ## New in 2.0 - The Physics Update ! - **Hit them.** A left click swings the lantern the way you struck it. Knockback weapons hit harder! - **Walk into them.** Running into a lantern shoves it aside! - **Shoot them.** With Arrows, snowballs, eggs and more! - **Blow them up.** TNT, creepers, wind charges and ghast fireballs send a shockwave that pushes nearby lanterns away from the blast. - **In multiplayer**, other players' hits and their bumps into a lantern show up on your screen. - **Create ans sable are now supported!** ## Features - **Smooth lantern swinging** - **Weather-aware movement** Rain and thunder increase the intensity for a more immersive animation - **Moving chains (optional)** Chain with attached lantern movement can be toggled in config - Physics that reacts to hits, players, projectiles and explosions - **Lightweight & performance-friendly** Built to keep overhead minimal - **Visual-only enhancement** Designed to improve ambience without changing gameplay in a client side mod! (works with vanilla servers) - **Support Resource packs** - **Configurable in-game (Mod Menu) or via json** - **No shaders needed** - **Compatible with third party lanterns** Enjoy watching your builds with your modded lanterns swinging! --- Lanterns gently sway, adding life and movement to your builds. Thunderstorms hit different 🌧️ ## Configuration You can tweak the mod to match your build style: - Enable/disable **chain movement** - Adjust **swing movement** and **responsiveness** - Tune **weather multipliers** (rain / thunder) - Adjust indoor movement (or disable it) ## Compatibility - Works alongside most client-side performance mods - Shaders - **Create** - **Sable** ### One thing worth knowing **Pass-through collision needs the server to have the mod.** Whether you bump into a block is decided by the server, so on a vanilla server you are stopped by the lantern no matter what the setting says. The toggle in the settings tells you when that is the case. The swinging, the hits, the explosions works on any server.
