Snow Golems can now survive in hot biomes!
In vanilla Minecraft, Snow Golems melt and die when they enter biomes with a temperature above 1.0 — deserts, jungles, badlands, the Nether, and more. This means your beloved snow friends are effectively restricted to cold biomes, severely limiting where you can use them.
Hot Snow Golems fixes this. Snow Golems no longer take heat damage from warm biomes. They can roam freely through deserts, explore jungles, and even survive in the Nether without melting. They still leave their signature snow trail wherever they go.
Snow Golems no longer take damage from hot biome temperatures. They survive in deserts, badlands, jungles, savannas, and even the Nether.
Snow Golems still leave their signature snow trail behind them — this mod only removes the heat damage, not any other behavior.
No config files, no commands. Just install and play. It works exactly as you'd expect.
This mod works entirely server-side. No client installation is needed.

Shoutout to my 9-year-old son, who discovered this problem while building a creeper farm in a savanna biome and watched his snow golem army melt away in real time. He also volunteered as the official tester — thanks buddy, this one's for you! ⛄🔥
