Season Area

Description

Turns the chunks around a location to a season for a while: its biome colours, populator blocks (snow, ice, flowers, leaf litter) and block replacements, as in its MIDDLE phase. Every check of the season at a spot inside the area follows it:

• The Season and SubSeason conditions (phase MIDDLE), also in drop tables, random spawns and skills.
• The season placeholders and PlaceholderAPI identifiers for an entity or player inside it.
• Crop growth, the air temperature, and the farmland and cauldron rules of cold seasons.
• The per-player season skill triggers: player-tick, player-tick-particles and the weather triggers.

The weather simulation, the calendar, events, seasonprogress and checks without a spot (world-tick triggers and conditions cast without a target) keep following the world.

This mechanic works on locations: each target location or target entity's position, or the caster's position when the line has no target.

• Where areas overlap, the one cast last shows.
• A season with a snow populator, such as the shipped winter, covers its area fully in snow, except spots lit above light level 11. A season without snow shows none in its area, even in a snowy winter.
• Players who turned season colours off with /toggleseasoncolors do not see areas.
• A torch placed in an area's snow, while the world's own season has no snow, clears that snow only the next time the chunk is sent.
