Discontinuous Beacon Beams

Stops a beacon beam from rendering though clear glass in its path. Configurable.

Works client-side and in single player.

Beacon beams won't render above clear glass or glass panes in their path.

They'll begin rendering again when they encounter another transparent colored block in their path.

All changes are purely visual, this mod doesn't allow beacon beams to go through blocks they usually couldn't go through (full, non-transparent blocks).

Supports Cloth Config and Mod Menu for configuration, but neither is required.

Options will use their default values if Cloth Config is absent.

If Cloth Config is present, options can be configured either through Mod Menu or by editing config/discontinuous_beacon_beams.json in your instance folder (.minecraft/ by default for the vanilla launcher).

This mod is only for Fabric (works on Quilt, too!) and I won't be porting it to Forge. The license is MIT, however, so anyone else is free to port it.

I'd appreciate links back to this page if you port or otherwise modify this project, but links aren't required.
