Healing Campfire is a Minecraft mod that applies the regeneration effect to players and passive mobs when they're near a lit campfire. The effect works in a configurable radius around the campfire block. By default, the radius is 16 blocks, but it can be adjusted between 1 and 64 blocks through the mod's settings.
The regeneration effect has a default duration of 60 seconds and a default level of 1. Both values can be changed in the configuration. The duration can be set from 1 to 600 seconds, and the level from 1 to 50. This allows for fine-tuning how strong and long-lasting the healing effect is.
The mod checks for nearby campfires every 40 ticks by default, which is about every 2 seconds. This check interval can be modified from 1 to 1200 ticks if needed. When an entity is within the healing radius and has half of its remaining regeneration effect left, the effect duration refreshes as long as it stays near the campfire.
Passive mobs are healed by default, but this can be turned off in the configuration. The mod also supports modded passive entities, as long as they're not classified as monsters. This healing effect particles can be hidden if desired.
The mod requires the campfire to be lit to work by default, but this requirement can be disabled. It also has an option to require the campfire to be in a signalling state, though this is off by default. For Minecraft 1.16 and later, there are separate toggles to enable the effect for normal campfires and soul campfires, both of which are enabled by default.
Healing Campfire runs on the server side and is compatible with Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt mod loaders. It supports Minecraft versions 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1, 26.2, and 26.3. Real talk, the mod doesn't require client-side installation.
This mod is suited for players who want to add a gentle healing mechanic to their base or campsite without using potions or commands. It works well in survival, adventure, or modpacks focused on quality-of-life improvements. Server administrators can use it to create safe zones where players and animals recover health over time.
