SunBeamMod

Sun Beam Mod

A custom spell mod for Mage Arena that summons a powerful pillar of fire from the sky.

Spell Effects

• Summons a large pillar of fire that deals 25 damage per second to all players within its area.
• The beam slowly expands over its duration, increasing its effective range.
• Features a dynamic visual effect with sound, rotation, and fade-out.

Requirements

• BepInEx: Required modding framework (version 5.4.21.0 or later).
• ModSync: Essential for multiplayer compatibility. Recommended for all players, though only the host needs it for the mod to function.
• BlackMagicAPI: The API for adding custom spells. Developed by [@D1GQ]

Installation

• Ensure BepInEx is installed in your Mage Arena game directory.
• Install ModSync and BlackMagicAPI if not already present, following their respective instructions.
• Install the Sun Beam Mod.

In-Game Details

• Spell Type: Page (lootable from chests, pots, etc.; spawns randomly).
• Name: "Solar Beam" (standardized name).
• Cooldown: 25 seconds.
• Behavior: Casts a fiery pillar that expands, rotates, and fades, dealing damage to all players inside, including the caster (friendly fire enabled).

Changelog

• Version 1.0.1 + 1.0.2:

-Fixed errors loading the spell ingame (sound and textures)

• Version 1.0.0 (Released):
• Initial release with core functionality: summoning a damaging, expanding fire pillar.
• Added sound, visual effects, and multiplayer compatibility via ModSync.

Known Issues

• The beam may be hard to see from inside due to one-sided textures; a ground fog effect helps visibility.
• Ensure all required mods are updated to avoid compatibility issues.

Troubleshooting

• Spell Not Appearing: Verify BlackMagicAPI and ModSync are installed and updated.
• No Damage: Check that the host has the mod active and players are within the beam's radius.
• Visual Glitches: Ensure SunBeam_BeamTexture.png is in BepInEx/plugins/SunBeamMod/Sprites.
