Size Potions

Size Potions

Size Potions adds a new item to your server, the Potion of Normalization. This potion temporarily resets any player or entity to scale 1.0, restoring normal size and reach for a limited time.

This plugin was built for an SMP where custom player sizes caused balance issues. Smaller players had strong advantages. Larger players struggled with reach, builds, and mobility. Size Potions solves this by giving everyone access to temporary normalization.

When the effect is active:

• The entity’s vanilla scale attribute is set to 1.0
• Health adjusts dynamically based on size
• Small players have fewer hearts
• Large players have more hearts
  Health scaling is based on logarithmic scale differences, which keeps changes smooth instead of extreme.

Recipes

• Size Potion 3 minutes
  Thick Potion + Golden Carrot in a crafting table
• Extended 8 minutes
  Size Potion + Redstone Dust
• Splash Potion
  Size Potion any duration + Gunpowder

Configuration

You have full control over scaling limits and health balance:

• base_health
  Base health for scale 1.0
• health_step
  Controls how dramatic health differences are per ln scale unit
• min_health
  Absolute minimum health safety limit
• min_scale and max_scale
  Defines the allowed size range on your server

The plugin modifies the vanilla scale attribute and uses the Luck effect internally for tracking.

• Includes a simple command: /playersize to quickly set a player’s scale within the allowed range

Future Plans

• Potions for increasing and decreasing size
