Heat of the Desert

Heat of the Desert increases the realism - and the challenge - of hot biomes. In this complete package, the mod turns things up a notch with:

- Configurable options to make plants more vulnerable to heat, including the possibility of death by heat
- A reduction in the heat tolerance of animals
- A reduction in the heat insulation gained with clothes and armor



Mod options:

- Plants die in excessive heat (default true)
- Max temperature plants can survive in (default 50C)
- Max temperature plants can grow in (default 45C)
- Max optimal temperature for growth (default 37C)

Mod changes:

- Most animals' max comfortable temperatures reduced to the vanilla default of 40C
- Reptiles and dromedaries reduced to 45C
- Armor and clothes give half as much heat insulation (except Phoenix Armor)

Note: Heat stroke occurs 10C above the maximum comfortable temperature



This is the complete release of Heat of the Desert. There are also smaller modules for players who only want a portion of the mod:

The Harmony patches for this mod's plants module were heavily based on work done in Expandable Plants. Thank you to eagle0600 for being with me in spirit for this project.
