The Cursed Number mod adds 100+ events, one new mechanics, and one item to the game. The mod is heavily inspired by SCP-048 from the SCP Foundation Universe.

SCP-048 is nothing. It was decided not to assign this designation because anything assigned the designation SCP-048 begins to attract an abnormal amount of misfortune, disasters, and unlikely accidents.

SCP-048 | The Cursed SCP Number


SCP-048 is nothing. It was decided not to assign this designation because anything assigned the designation SCP-048 begins to attract an abnormal amount of misfortune, disasters, and unlikely accidents.

This mod brings that curse directly into your Minecraft world.

 

Core Mechanic

 

Anything renamed SCP-048 will begin to attract catastrophic events.

After a random amount of time, a disaster will occur.

The maximum time before an event happens can be configured with the gamerule:

 

Scp048EventMaxTime
 

(value in ticks)

 

There are more than 110 possible events affecting both entities and items.

Possible events include:

  • sudden diseases
  • gas leaks
  • landslides
  • earthquakes
  • tornadoes
  • fires
  • and many other unpredictable disasters or unexpected event

Entities near SCP-048 may also become victims of the event.

If SCP-048 survives the disaster, it may seem like the curse has paused… but sooner or later it will strike again.

The curse does not appear to end until SCP-048 dies or is removed.

Designation

 

Players can designate themselves or other players as SCP-048 using name tags renamed “SCP-048.”

  • Shift + right-click yourself with the tag → you become SCP-048
  • Right-click another player → they become SCP-048

Once designated, the target begins attracting the curse’s events.

Escaping the curse

 

There are only two guaranteed ways to stop the curse:

  1. Die
  2. Change the name of the entity or item

As long as the name remains SCP-048, the disasters will continue.

But maybe someone will be good enough to be able to break the curse.

 

Life of SCP-048

 

Being SCP-048 means living in constant danger.

Sleeping, opening a chest, using a furnace, moving, eating, breathing, jumping, or changing dimension…

any action might be the last one.

 

Drop of SCP-048

 

When an entity designated SCP-048 dies, it drops:

  • the SCP-048 name tag
  • the SCP-048 document

Foundation Event

Periodically, the SCP Foundation will attempt to assign the SCP-048 designation to a new anomaly.

The default time is 15 real minutes.

The Foundation will select one of this category :

  • players in the server
  • items in player inventories
  • entities near players

The interval can be configured using:

Scp048AssignmentCooldown
 

Default value:

18000 ticks (15 minutes)
 

Success chance

 

Each attempt has a 10% chance of success.

If successful:
  • a new SCP-048 will be designated
  • the Foundation will announce it using a loudspeaker audio message heard by all players.

If the attempt fails:

a chat message will appear stating that the Foundation is actively searching for a new SCP-048 to disprove these superstitions.

 

The chance can be modified using:

Scp048AssignmentChanche
 

Default value:

10

Disabling the Foundation Event

 

To disable the Foundation event completely:

 
Scp048AssignmentChanche = 0
 

To also avoid the failure message in chat, set a very high cooldown.

 

Forcing the Foundation Event

 

The gamerule:
 
Scp048forceevent
 
If set to true, the Foundation will immediately attempt to assign a new SCP-048.The success will still depend on the configured chance.
