Description
As of Version 1.0, this mod is required on both the server and client.
Delayed Thunder overhauls vanilla thunder sounds with improved audio for immersion, then delays the sound for each player based on distance.
Distances for each level of delay are changeable in the configuration file.
Check out a video showcasing the sounds below. If it doesn't load you can go here:
