Lag Reaper Block

Quickstart

1. First join — you automatically receive the Lag Reaper Book. Creative players also get the full starter kit (block + flame) for free.
2. Survival players — craft the Lag Reaper Block at a crafting table, then craft the Purgatory Flame:

1. Place the Lag Reaper Block anywhere in your world. It immediately begins its purge timer.
2. Open the Lag Reaper Book (tap/click with it in hand) to configure what gets cleared, set the purge interval, and manage all settings.
3. Drop an upgrade item onto or next to the block to expand its cleaning radius.

Overview

Lag Reaper Block is a performance-aid addon that automatically removes dropped items and/or hostile mobs from a configurable radius around a placed block. A shared purge timer fires on a schedule you choose, warns players before each clear, counts down the final seconds, and announces when the purge completes. The result is a cleaner, smoother world — especially on busy multiplayer servers or large survival worlds.

How To Use

Lag Reaper Block

Place the block wherever you want purging to occur — a farm, mob grinder, or busy trading hall are good candidates. The block:

• Runs on a shared purge timer (1–5 minutes, your choice).
• Warns players 30 seconds before each purge.
• Counts down 10 to 1 in the final seconds.
• Announces in chat when the clear finishes.
• Emits a faint light and has a dark-red map color so it is easy to spot.
• Drops nothing when broken, so place it carefully.

Configuring with the Lag Reaper Book

Open the book any time to access a full settings UI:

• Toggle item clearing (dropped items) and/or mob clearing (hostile mobs).
• Set the purge interval — 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 minute.
• Manage warnings and countdown announcements.
• Edit the Mob Disappear List — choose exactly which mob types are removed within ~96 blocks of each player.
• Configure upgrade broadcast messages.
• Choose which blocks the Purgatory Flame will destroy (persistent per-player setting).
• Access the built-in Addon Wiki for in-game help.

Radius Preview

• Sneak + use a Stick while near a Lag Reaper Block to preview its current cleaning radius as a particle ring.
• Enable Show Radius in the book to keep a persistent low-particle flame ring visible around the block at all times, with an action-bar readout of the current radius.
• An optional FPS Lag HUD can be enabled to monitor performance in the action bar.

Purgatory Flame

• Click the item in your inventory to instantly remove all blocks of the configured types in a targeted area. A multi-line chat summary shows the total count of blocks removed.
• Hold it in your hand while walking to leave a harmless green fire-like trail that fades after ~2 seconds. This trail effect can be toggled in settings.

Abilities And Mechanics

Radius Upgrades

Drop upgrade items directly onto or next to a placed Lag Reaper Block to increase its purge radius:

Upgrades are scanned automatically every second. Only valid upgrade items are accepted; an invalid drop shows a brief error message.

Purge Sequence

Each purge cycle follows this sequence:

1. Timer counts down to 30 seconds remaining → warning broadcast.
2. Timer reaches 10 seconds → 10…1 countdown in chat/action bar.
3. Purge fires — all targeted dropped items and/or hostile mobs within the radius are removed.
4. Completion announcement is sent to all players.

Mob Disappear List

Separate from the main purge, the Mob Disappear List watches for specific mob types near players (within ~96 blocks) on a 5-second scan cycle and removes them continuously — not just at purge time. Manage which mobs are on this list via the Lag Reaper Book.

Progression And Strategy

• Start small — place one Lag Reaper Block at the default 10-block radius near a mob farm or item-heavy area and use the 5-minute timer to begin.
• Upgrade the radius gradually using gold blocks first, then diamonds, netherite scrap, and finally a nether star for maximum 90-block coverage.
• Use the Mob Disappear List for passive, continuous mob removal in areas you frequent — this works independently of the purge timer.
• Purgatory Flame is ideal for one-time cleanup jobs: configure your target blocks in the Lag Reaper Book, then click the flame in your inventory to clear them instantly with a full report.
• On servers, coordinate the shared purge interval with other players so warnings are expected and nobody loses important dropped items by accident. Set a longer interval (4–5 minutes) in active areas.
• Enable Show Radius with the flame rings to visually confirm coverage before committing to an upgrade — the action-bar readout confirms the exact radius at a glance.
