Creeper Paranoia Datapack
Introduction
This datapack plays a ignited creeper sound to a random player at a random time
Installation
Place the .zip in your world's datapacks
Usage
- After the installation, you don't need to configure anything
This is how it works:
- A timer is set to a random value between 10 minutes and 1 hour in real time (by default) - When the timer reaches to 0, a creeper sound is played at a random player in the world - The timer resets again to a random value
Configuration

To modify the range of the timer run the command `/function creeper_paranoia:_sudo/print_config`. This will print in chat the current configuration, theres two pressable texts to modify the range:
- Min ticks: This is the minimum value of the range (set to 12000 ticks by default) - Max ticks: This is the maximum value of the range (set to 72000 ticks by default)
After setting min_ticks and/or max_ticks, click the "Click to update timer" text.
> Note that all values are set in minecraft ticks (20 ticks = 1 second), to convert seconds to ticks use this tool from the wiki
Running The command `/function creeper_paranoia:_sudo/_reset` resets the timer to it's default values
