Requires Hot Bath.

Full player guide: For advanced features, complete recipes, detailed effects, configuration and compatibility, visit the official ShowerCore guide.

Welcome to ShowerCore! Tired of smelling like a zombie after a long mining trip? Want to gain superpowers just by standing under some water? You've come to the right place. This mod turns your boring hygiene routine into a magical, buff-granting experience.

Note: This mod requires HotBath to work properly. HotBath provides the basic bath fluids used in this mod.

The Shower Head

The heart of your bathroom. It's not just for looks; it's for power.

  • Install Core: Right-click with a Shower Core (Item) to install it.
  • Swap Core: Right-click with another core; the old one pops out.
  • Remove Core: Sneak + Right-click with an empty hand to remove the core.
  • Turn On/Off: Right-click with an empty hand. A core must be installed to turn the water on.
  • Effect: Stand under the running water to get buffs based on the installed core. No complex setup required!

Shower Head Effects

CoreMain shower buffs
Hot WaterSpeed
MilkRegeneration, hunger recovery and cleansing
HerbalRegeneration, Resistance and cleansing; hurts undead
PeonyRegeneration, Luck, Haste and cleansing
HoneyRegeneration, Absorption and hunger recovery
RoseRegeneration, Strength and cleansing

Buff duration builds up while you shower, up to two minutes. Cleansing rules differ by core; none removes Bad Luck. Full values and exceptions are in the official guide.

The Shower Core (Block)

If you place a Shower Core down as a block instead of putting it in a shower head, it acts like a Conduit. Build a Conduit-style frame from that core's matching blocks to activate an area buff for nearby players. Core blocks and shower heads have different effects; the guide lists the frame materials and ranges.

The Bathtub

For when standing is just too much effort.

  • Fill 'er up: Right-click with a bucket of water or a Hot Bath fluid. Bath fluids provide buffs; ordinary water does not.
  • Visual Effects: Hot water and HotBath fluids produce steam particles above the bathtub
  • The Faucet: Empty-hand right-click the faucet on a filled tub to toggle running water. It does not fill an empty tub.
  • Sit Down: Empty-hand right-click the head or foot of the tub to sit.
  • Shared Bath (Ooh la la):

    • Empty-hand right-click the free end of an occupied tub to ask to join.
    • The person inside gets an [Accept] / [Reject] prompt in chat. Press 'T' to open chat and click it!
    • (Or use commands: `/showercore accept_bath //showercore deny_bath `)
    • Note: Don't run away! You must be within 5 blocks to join.
    • The other player must remain seated and the second seat must be free.

Custom Bathtub Textures

Match a bathtub to your build using vanilla or modded block textures. Hold the bathtub item in one hand and at least 6 identical blocks in the other, then use the item before placing it. Survival consumes 6 blocks when the material changes; Creative is free.

The Rubber Duck

The true boss of this mod.

  • Physics: It floats! It bobs! It's adorable!
  • Spin: Poke it (Right-click) to make it spin.
  • Pickup: Sneak + Right-click to take your buddy home.
  • DANGER: DO NOT throw it in lava. It will scream. You will feel bad. You monster.
