Warden menu

Give warden's mark

• Give yourself an item you can shoot other players with to mark them. Marked players will initiate a transformation sequence upon death and gain their stats and abilities.

Remove warden

• Remove the current warden's attributes, abilities, and bossbar.

Become warden

• /tag @s add warden_mark
• Running the command marks you as the next warden. You can also change @s to another player's name to mark them instead

Uninstall

• /function foppy:uninstall
• Uninstalls the datapack.

Configs

Infect blocks

• Whether warden can turn soft blocks into sculk. Agitate will work on all blocks if this is disabled.
• Default: 1 (true)

Warden health

• How much health a warden starts with. Since you can change this value, wearing armor is not recommended.
• Default: 500

Warden damage

• How much base damage the warden deals. Weapons are also not recommended.
• Default: 5

Requires death

• Whether a marked player needs to die to turn into a warden. If disabled, whoever gets marked becomes a warden immediately.
• Default: 1 (true)

Use custom game rules

• Whether the datapack will set its game rules during the next reload, being:
  • doImmediateRespawn: true
  • mobGriefing: false (Explosions will destroy blocks if true)
  • sendCommandFeedback: false
• When disabled, you still need to set the gamerules manually. They just won't be reset on the next /reload

Final notes

• Join the discord server to suggest more features, configs and attacks.
• Don't try to spawn two wardens at once, it won't end well.
• Credit to lowpolyellie on discord for creating wild charge and descending dark.
