Compound V Refabricated

Compound V Refabricated 2.4.0 — Minecraft 1.20.1 (Fabric)

A major update: critical bug fixes, a full balance pass, a new HUD and new visual effects.

⚠️ Before updating

• Powers were never actually saved in 2.3.5, so in existing worlds every player will roll a new random power on their first join after updating.
• Laser heat settings in the config are reset to the new defaults.

✨ New

• Power HUD in the top-left corner: icon, name, cooldown bars for both abilities, heat gauge, buff timers and the Temp V countdown. Bars flash and a chime plays when an ability is ready.
• Secondary ability key G: many powers now have a second ability.
• New beams: soft glow, white-hot core, muzzle and impact flares, jagged lightning, webs, energy rings on chest blasts, flamethrower particles.
• Screen effects: charge ring around the crosshair, screen tint for overheat, rage and power suppression.
• Powers that used to do nothing now have real abilities:
  • Telekinesis: grab a creature and throw it
  • Spider: wall climbing and a web-zip
  • Slime: bounce instead of taking fall damage
  • Atomic Charge: hold the key to build up the charge
  • Virus: infect with punches or a toxic cloud
  • Starlight: charges energy in bright light
  • Head Pop: keep your eyes on the target to pop it
  • …and more
• Temp V is now actually temporary (5 minutes), then your previous power comes back.
• Virus Arrows work with bows and dispensers and apply the contagious Virus V effect.
• /powers info is available to every player. For admins, power names now tab-complete, and /powers reload and /powers player <name> cooldowns were added.
• Full English and Russian translations; the guide book follows each player's game language.

⚖️ Balance

• No power grants full invulnerability anymore (some used to give Resistance V).
• Soldier Boy suppresses players' powers for 5 minutes instead of forever.
• Power damage against players is reduced (×0.6, configurable). Respects the server PvP setting and team friendly fire.
• Lasers: 4 s of heat, 8 s overheat (both configurable).
• ✨s appear in 25% of loot chests instead of every one. V1 only appears in Ancient Cities and End Cities.
• New Virus Arrow recipe: 8 arrows surrounding a Virus V Vial → 8 Virus Arrows.

🐛 Fixes

• Powers, locks, bans and cooldowns are saved with the world and survive server restarts.
• Holding the key no longer spams the server, and flight no longer toggles on and off by itself.
• Lasers no longer break chests or other important blocks. All block damage respects mobGriefing, spawn protection and Adventure mode.
• Milk and /effect clear no longer remove your power permanently. Powers no longer wipe potions, beacon effects or flight granted by other mods.
• Teleport and Black Noir's shadow step no longer put you inside walls.
• Abilities no longer hit through walls or pick random creatures.
• Fixed the key category names in Controls, config file encoding, and a broken recipe that logged an error on world load.

⚙️ Config

• block damage from powers and whether powers affect players
• Temp V and Soldier Boy suppression durations
