This datapack/server-side mod expands on gameplay involving sculk and the warden.

Warden

The warden now spreads a modest amount of sculk along the ground wherever it walks. This can sometimes include sculk sensors and even active sculk shriekers. If you're trying to contain a warden or bring one to the surface, be careful!

Additionally, wardens now swim faster in water and can't drown. Note that this does break drowning-based warden farms.

Recovery Compass

The recovery compass has an additional use while holding it: every 2 seconds, it emits soul particles that point in the direction of the nearest mob or player within 32 blocks of you.

Gameplay

  • Sculk veins are now climbable, making ancient cities even more interesting to navigate. Note that due to the way the climbable tag works, walking over a sculk vein that's on the floor will slow down your movement.
  • Sculk blocks, sculk catalysts, and reinforced deepslate now indefinitely burn with soul fire when lit. Looks great for builds!

Recipes

In addition, there are four new recipes:

  • You can craft four sculk veins into one sculk block, or vice versa.
  • You can smoke one sculk block into one sculk vein and some experience, providing a way to extract experience from sculk that can be automated, as opposed to breaking it by hand or with a hoe.
  • You can craft eight sculk blocks and one glass bottle into a bottle o' enchanting, providing a way of stockpiling them that doesn't require villager trading.
