Watch the mod demonstration on YouTube:

Transform your Minecraft world with a realistic earthquake system that creates massive destruction up to 200 blocks deep. This optimized mod adds controllable seismic events for servers and single-player gameplay.

🌍 Key Features

Deep Vertical Destruction

• Progressive Depth System: Intensity 1 creates 10-block deep cracks, while intensity 20 reaches 200 blocks deep
• Realistic Crack Patterns: Earthquakes carve deep fissures and caverns into the terrain
• Smart Block Breaking: Intensity-based destruction with configurable break chances

Convenient Command System

• /earthquake start - Quick earthquake with default settings
• /earthquake start <intensity> <duration> <radius> - Full customization (intensity 1-20, duration 1-300 sec, radius 10-500 blocks)
• /earthquake start <intensity> <duration> <radius> <x> <y> <z> - Precise positioning
• /earthquake stop - Stop earthquakes near you or at specific coordinates
