Survivality

Survivality is a collection of small survival-focused changes that add useful conveniences and playful variations to everyday Minecraft gameplay. Travel and movement are tweaked with faster minecarts, rocket boosts for vehicles and mounts, boats that pass over lily pads while breaking them, and rideable, tamable zombie horses created when lightning strikes a horse. World generation can start players in any biome, at any time of day, and during any weather, while local environments influence dungeon spawners, turning them into drowned in oceans, husks in hot biomes, or strays in cold biomes. Small survival adjustments include lowering snow layers with a shovel, keeping cactus items from being destroyed by cactus blocks, avoiding farmland trampling with Feather Falling boots, editing signs again, and making Eyes of Ender unbreakable. Other changes affect creatures and combat: sheep can rarely spawn in any wool color, slimes and magma cubes can appear one size larger, polar bears may spawn with a stray rider, tridents drop more often from trident-wielding drowned, and higher Multishot levels fire more arrows. The mod also changes progression and survival resources, including greater experience drops on death, faster eating for glow berries, sweet berries, and cookies, Night Vision that responds to its amplifier, and an end to anvil repair limits labeled “Too Expensive.” Snowy leaves change to a pale gray, and dense fog can appear in certain cold biomes during snowfall.
