Fully configurable beacon pyramids, add new pyramid types and adjust strength.
A powerful, flexible overhaul for Minecraft beacons.
Better Beacons makes beacons more useful by giving them massive, chunk based ranges and letting you use almost any block as a base. Effects stick with you even if the beacon unloads, making it the perfect tool for large bases and survival projects.
Instead of blocks, this mod counts Chunks (16x16 areas).
You build the pyramid just like in vanilla Minecraft. Thanks to our dynamic tag engine, any block you configure as a beacon base will automatically show a beam and work perfectly for all players, even those on vanilla clients.
Level 2 OP permission required.
Manage your beacon settings directly in-game:
/betterbeacons set <block> [radius] - Add or change a block's range (example: /betterbeacons set minecraft:dirt 3)./betterbeacons remove <block> - Stop a specific block from working as a custom beacon base./betterbeacons list - See every block that currently has a custom range./betterbeacons reload - Refresh settings if you manually edited the config file.Server owners can find the configuration file at config/betterbeacons.json. You can add any block ID here and set its chunk diameter. Size 3 means a radius of 1 chunk around the center.

We are working to bring Better Beacons to more versions of Minecraft.
