Hybrid Liquid

**Hybrid Liquid** is a fluid that naturally generates abundantly in the Overworld whenever Lava and Water interact with each other on april fools.

## Obtaining

The **Hybrid Liquid** can be collected by using a bucket on a hybrid source block or a full hybrid cauldron, creating a hybrid bucket.

Hybrid Liquid does not have a direct item form

### Post-generation

The Hybrid Liquid does not naturally generate on initial generation, but will quickly generate naturally post generation whenever Lava and Water interact with eachother on April Fools, unluckily, this kinda ruins cobblestone generators and it also probably makes obsidian impossible to find.

Hybrid Liquid will mostly generate stationary, due to only generating in places where Water and Lava interact with eachother (*where most of the time, both liquid sources are stationary*), but in very rare cases, the Hybrid Liquid can actually generate moving, this usually happens when a waterfall and a lavafall meet.

Hybrid Liquid Blocks can be placed in the nether and the end, but the source block will be converted to a normal Lava source block.

## Usage

### Light

Hybrid Liquid Blocks produce a light level of 5, which is low, but can generate enough Light for day to day tasks you would do in Rubydung.

### Interactions with mobs

#### Direct contact

Since This block doesn't really know what to do, it just decides to harm anything it sees, which means that it behaves like a Lava Block, instead of taking 4 of damage, entities or players will only take 2 of damage every half-second while in contact with the hybrid block.

An entity/player in lava also has its `remainingFireTicks` set to 300, setting it on fire for 15 seconds. This timer is reset to 300 every tick that the victim spends in the hybrid block so it starts counting down once the victim leaves the hybrid block, Once the victim does exit the hybrid source it burns for just under 15 seconds, taking fire damage 14 times. This is due to the fact that for the first tick outside of hybridness, its `remainingFireTicks` decrease to 299, and entities take fire damage when `remainingFireTicks` is a multiple of 20 and greater than 0.

If the victim touches water or rain falls on it, the fire is extinguished, but the hybrid source continues to damage them directly.

A player in lava lasts a few seconds before dying:

* 2.5 seconds with no armor
* 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments
* 4 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments
* 4.5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments
* 5.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments
* 10.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments
* 11 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments

The lava part of the hybrid liquid block is affected by Anti-Fire Enchantments or by Fiery related items.

#### Suffocation

Players and mobs (except aquatic mobs, undead mobs and iron golems) have a breath meter that lasts 15 seconds. After they run out of breath, they take 2 suffocation damage every second until they die or return to surface. Dolphins are a special case in drowning: they take suffocation damage when underwater for about 4 minutes, but also take suffocation damage when in air for about 2 minutes....

Or dolphins can also explode like a creeper since they have zero idea whats going on.

Each level of the Respiration enchantment adds 15 seconds to the breath meter and grants an x/(x+1) chance (where x is the Respiration level) of not taking damage after that time: 30 seconds and an average 1/second with Respiration I, 45 seconds and an average of 2⁄3 damage/second with Respiration II, and 60 seconds and an average of 1⁄2 damage/second with Respiration III.

### Traps

If a player isnt experienced with rubydung blocks, they may get confused on what block the hybrid block may be, this may end up with the confused player falling on the source block and dying from, either: suffocation or fire damage, the latter is much more likely to happen though.

### *Making your Life harder*

Due to this block litterary not allowing the creation of Obsidian or Cobblestone from generators, this ends up not only making Skyblock obsolete on April Fools, it also ends up making finding obsidian and making a nether portal just way more harder, which causes progression to get delayed by a lot.
