Controls & Keybinds

Dreamlight Fishing has no commands and no permission nodes. Everything is played with the vanilla fishing controls plus one keybind.

Keybinds

Action Default Category Notes
Open Fishing Journal J Miscellaneous Rebind it under Options → Controls → Key Binds. Only opens when no other screen is open.

During the minigame

Phase Input What it does
Timing Use or Attack (right- or left-click) Registers a hit on the closing ring.
Reeling Hold Use Reels: progress and tension both climb.
Reeling Release Use Eases off: tension falls, progress slips back a little.

While the minigame is running, your clicks go to the minigame and not to your items or the world. After a catch, a snap or an escape, the result (FISH CAUGHT!, PERFECT CATCH!, LINE SNAPPED! or FISH GOT AWAY...) shows for 2 seconds, and clicks stay blocked for that time so a late click doesn't recast by accident.

The minigame is called off, with no penalty, if you die, disconnect or reel your line back in. See The Minigame for the hit windows and reeling numbers.

Handy vanilla commands

The mod adds none of its own, but these vanilla commands help when testing (cheats required):

/kill @e[type=ddv_fishing:fishing_ripple,distance=..64]

Removes every ripple within 64 blocks and reports how many it removed: an exact count of the ripples around you.

/fillbiome ~-8 0 ~-8 ~8 320 ~8 minecraft:jungle

Paints the biome around you so you can test biome loot without travelling.
