Auroral

"The sky gives and the ice remembers."

Auroral is a winter expansion mod that transforms cold biomes from barren wastelands into hubs of mystical progression. Harness the power of the Aurora Borealis to craft unique tools, armor, and magical potions without ever needing to visit the Nether.

The Aurora Event

During certain nights in cold biomes, the sky comes alive with shimmering ribbons of green and pink light. This celestial phenomenon is more than just beautiful, it is the key to Auroral's progression system.

When an aurora appears:

  • Glacial Basins fill with glowing Liquid Aura
  • Shimmersteel gear slowly repairs itself
  • Aurora Blooms sprout on snow blocks and grow only to vanish forever come morning

Core Features

Glacial Basin

The heart of Auroral's crafting system. Place this basin under open sky in a cold biome, and during aurora events it will collect Liquid Aura. Right-click with materials to transform them:

  • Unrefined Shimmersteel → Shimmersteel Ingot
  • Woven Leather → Shimmerweave Fabric
  • Frozen Petals → Aurora Shard
  • Ice → Shimmering Ice

Shimmersteel Arsenal

Upgrade your iron tools at a Smithing Table with Shimmersteel Ingots to create powerful aurora-infused equipment:

  • Shimmersteel Pickaxe → Fortune III for gems and minerals only
  • Shimmersteel Axe → Right-click copper to force oxidation
  • Shimmersteel Shovel → Inherent Silk Touch
  • Shimmersteel Sword → Applies Slowness, executes low-HP enemies
  • Shimmersteel Spear → Throwable with bonus damage during auroras
  • Shimmersteel Bow → Fires Star-Shots using snowballs as ammo

Shimmerweave Armor

Crafted by upgrading iron armor with Shimmerweave Fabric:

  • Goggles → Nearby hostile mobs glow through walls
  • Tunic → Automatically extinguishes fire
  • Leggings → Speed boost on snow, Soul Speed on soul sand
  • Skates → Ice skating, Frost Walker, lava to obsidian, fall immunity on ice

Nether-Free Brewing

The Cold Brewing Stand uses snowballs instead of Blaze Powder, and Frozen Petals work like Nether Wart to create Awkward Potions. Complete your potion setup without ever visiting the Nether!

Flora & Food

  • Aurora Blooms - Magical flowers that spawn on snow during auroras, harvested for Frozen Petals
  • Glow Leeks - Grown on Shimmering Ice, grants Night Vision when eaten
  • Frosted Cookies - A frosty treat with special effects
  • Hot Cocoa - Warm up with a comforting drink

Special Blocks

  • Hearthwood Log - Burns for 7 days, grants frostbite immunity nearby, and acts as an Aurora Catalyst
  • Shimmering Ice - Glowing ice that never melts and hydrates crops
  • Aurora Lantern - Portable light that protects against the Darkness effect

Auroral Snowlette

Use an Aurora Shard on a Snow Golem to create an adorable miniature companion! These tiny pets:

  • Follow you like a tamed wolf
  • Can be told to sit
  • Heals when hit with snowballs
  • Emits gentle aurora sparkles

Optional Integration

  • GuideME - In-game guidebook with full documentation

Getting Started

  1. Find a cold biome (snowy plains, frozen peaks, etc.)
  2. Craft a Glacial Basin (Stone + Blue Ice + Iron)
  3. Place it under open sky and wait for an aurora
  4. Gather Frozen Petals from Aurora Blooms
  5. Create Aurora Shards in the basin
  6. Craft Unrefined Shimmersteel (Copper + Iron + Coal)
  7. Refine it in the basin to get Shimmersteel Ingots
  8. Upgrade your iron gear at a Smithing Table!

# Auroral 1.1.2 ## Added - **Shimmerweave Skates now protect you from falling into lava.** While you are falling or flying downward, any lava directly beneath you turns into obsidian before you reach it. - A new `skates_lava_fall_scan_depth` config controls how far below you the skates look (default 16 blocks, 0 disables). (breakinblocks/auroral#17) - **Shimmer Spear.** A long-reach piercing weapon crafted from a Shimmersteel Ingot and two sticks. Left-click stabs hit every enemy along the line, only at full attack charge. Hold right-click to charge a committed strike that lunges forward and hits harder the longer it is held. Every hit applies Frostbite; during an aurora it deals bonus damage and a stronger, longer Frostbite. - **Shimmersteel Nautilus Armor.** Crafted from Shimmersteel Ingots around a Nautilus Shell. Right-click a tamed Auroral Nautilus to equip it, shear the nautilus to take it off. It drops when the nautilus dies. - **Snow-logged Aurora Blooms.** Blooms placed on a snow layer or in powder snow, by you or by the aurora, now replace the snow at the same level and remember it. When the bloom is broken or wilts the snow comes back. Snow-logged blooms keep a visible snow base and give off faint snowflakes so they can be found under fresh snow. - Aurora Blooms can grow on Ice, Packed Ice and Blue Ice. Silk touching a fully grown bloom now gives the decorative variant. The decorative bloom can be placed in flower pots. - Shimmerweave Goggles now show a translucent visor over the eyes. - Lit Hearthwood Logs ignite phantoms that enter their area and phantoms will not target players standing in it. - Tamed Auroral Nautili within 32 blocks follow you through portals and teleports. Tamed nautili orbit closer, wild ones orbit a player holding an Aurora Shard, and at most two spawn within 64 blocks of any player. - Glacial Basins take items from pipes and hoppers into an input slot, infuse them automatically, and push results out the bottom. Sneak and right-click with an empty hand to empty the output slot. - Shimmersteel Ingots work as an armor trim material. Shimmersteel tools and Shimmerweave armor accept the vanilla enchantments for their type. - Shimmer Soil accepts vanilla crop seeds. - Shimmersteel Bow damage scales with draw strength, respects Power and Infinity, and the Star-Shot counts as an arrow. - Shimmersteel Sword executes play a particle burst and chime and count the weapon that dealt the hit. ## Changed - Added in-game configuration access for independent aurora sky and sound controls. Disabling aurora sounds now mutes music and start/end cues and stops active music. - Shimmerweave Skates freeze water while standing still and no longer lose durability when turning lava to obsidian. - Aurora music plays once per aurora on the music channel at half volume. Nautilus sounds use the friendly creatures channel. - Snow Angels need both hands empty. ## Fixed - Fixed Shimmering Ice hydrating farmland at the wrong height. - Fixed Ender Bloom conversion losing the snow stored under an Aurora Bloom. - Reset aurora rendering intensity when disconnecting. - Corrected guide descriptions of Nautilus drops and following behavior, and Hot Cocoa nutrition. - Worn Shimmerweave armor no longer shows the missing texture checkerboard. Thanks to smcnultyos. (breakinblocks/auroral#18) - Setting `basin_max_aura` above 3 no longer crashes the server once a Glacial Basin fills up. The config is now capped at 3. - Shimmer Soil no longer turns into dirt when jumped on. - Shimmersteel Hoe and Shovel Silk Touch now uses the real loot tables, so crops drop normally instead of a single seed. - Shimmersteel Sword executes now properly place snow at the kill site. - The Auroral Guidebook no longer crashes the game when GuideME is not installed. - `/aurora start` refuses to run outside the Overworld or during the day instead of reporting success and immediately ending. `/aurora stop` now cleans up blooms and plays the end sound like a natural end. - `hearthwood_log_burn_time`, `hearthwood_log_frostbite_radius` and `hearthwood_log_villager_discount` are now read. `sword_slowness_duration` is renamed to `sword_frostbite_duration` and controls the Frostbite the sword applies. - Villagers near a lit Hearthwood Log now give the trade discount. - Hoppers can no longer jam the Cold Brewing Stand with non-ingredients or overfill bottle slots. - performance improvements for Hearthwood Logs at nightfall - Aurora Lanterns placed on the floor under a ceiling no longer hang from the ceiling. - Aurora gear repair no longer repairs the held item twice per tick.
