Even Better Moon and Sun

## What's new in v1.5.1 - Fabric 26.1, Fabric 1.21.11, and NeoForge 1.21.11 now have the full feature set that NeoForge 26.1 already had — Meteor Shower, Harvest Moon, configurable /year, and the /astro summary command - All 4 builds are now at feature parity ## Moon Phases Extends the lunar cycle to a realistic **29 days**, matching the real lunar month. All 8 named phases are used: | Phase | Days in cycle | |---|---| | New Moon | 1 | | Waxing Crescent | 5 | | First Quarter | 2 | | Waxing Gibbous | 6 | | Full Moon | 2 | | Waning Gibbous | 6 | | Third Quarter | 2 | | Waning Crescent | 5 | ## Seasonal Sun Over a 365-day in-game year, the sun's arc shifts north/south by up to **23.5 degrees** — exactly matching Earth's axial tilt. In summer the sun rides high; in winter it stays low. The shift is continuous every tick, not a sudden daily jump. Year length is configurable with `/year set <days>`. ## Sky Events All events are configurable with in-game commands and saved to `config/evenbettermoon.json`. | Event | Default | Command | |---|---|---| | Solar eclipse | Every 174 days | `/eclipse set <days>` | | Blood moon | Every full moon night | `/bloodmoon set <days>` | | Harvest moon | Nearest full moon to autumn equinox | automatic | | Meteor shower | Every 14 days | `/meteorshower set <days>` | | Aurora borealis | Seasonal, peaks at the equinoxes | `/aurora set <multiplier>` | Use `/astro` to see the current season, lunar phase, and days until each upcoming event. ## F3 Debug Screen Press **F3** to see live astronomical info: - **In-game day** and total elapsed days - **Season** and day within it (e.g. `Summer (day 14)`) - **Lunar cycle** — current moon phase and position in the 29-day cycle - **Active events** — eclipse %, blood moon, harvest moon, meteor shower, aurora borealis - **Countdowns** — days until next blood moon, eclipse, and meteor shower ## Details - Client-side only — no server mod required - No dependencies beyond NeoForge / Fabric Loader - Works with existing worlds
