Features of the Cold Sweat Temperature System mod in Minecraft

The Cold Sweat Minecraft mod adds a unique temperature system that allows you to feel the effects and changes to your core temperature based on the ambient temperature in your world. This depends on the biomes you visit as well as the activities you take part in. For instance, if you take a dip in the water, your core temperature will go down, but if you walk through a desert, it will shoot up.

The add-on allows you to craft a thermometer using 2 Gold Ingot and 3 Redstone. This device shows you the temperature of the world and your surroundings when held in the inventory or the hotbar. It also introduces technical items such as an icebox, smokestack, and waterskins, which you can use to survive in the harsh climatic changes of different biomes.

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this temperature system in Minecraft is that the mod also adds a host of insulation materials. Items such as goat fur boots and hoglin hides can protect you from the cold and the heat, respectively. You also have a wide assortment of insulation wool to craft your desired shade of clothing.

Additionally, the mod offers unique potions and healing buffs that can help you counter the effects of temperature on your health. The mod also allows you to set minimum and maximum bearable temperatures, allowing you to create baselines within the temperature system in Minecraft. If you cross either, it will start affecting your health rapidly and you will begin to gradually lose hearts.

If choosing a custom value seems like a hassle, the cold sweat temperature system in Minecraft also allows you to choose from presets of various difficulties that reduce or increase the baseline core temperatures. A higher difficulty will reduce the ranges to make it even more difficult for you, especially when visiting areas or biomes where the weather can take a dip.
