Please use the updated version over on ModdedMc!

These are the core of the light and the mod, they are the main abilities that you activate and correspond to much of the fancy things happening around you. Beacuse of this, I suggest that instead of reading trough this you just play with the mod, and find out which light you have by "randomly" triggering it while playing. At least that's how it would work in my head.

The factors specified in the Conditions don't all have to happen at the same time, a combination of them, or even just one in some cases may be enough to trigger it.

Low health is calculated by predicting the next attack's damage (including armor, potions, etc.), and considering how much HP would be left. If it's below a certein percentage, then it triggers. By default the percentages are: 30% for SELF, and 50% for ALLIES and VARIANT.

Having said this, here are all the details regarding the multiple light types of the mod:

Trivia: This is the first easter egg! And you spoiled it for yourself...

Well this light can be naturally obtained only if in the first part of your UUID you have the string "6f2e7" which is "frog" spelled as numbers of the letters of the alphabet. Yep. Not really likely, like in 100000000 generated UUID none had it.

You can still have fun with it using the commands!
