Favor System

Overview

In Devotions, favor is a point system that shows where the player stands with any given deity. When players select a deity, their beginning favor amount will be based on the initial-favor value in config.yml. Favor increases or decreases based on player actions like offerings, rituals, and the time elapsed without performing any of those activities.

This section of your config.yml is where you can adjust the favor values:

initial-favor: 50 # Favor players start out with
max-favor: 250 # Max amount of favor players can have
decay-rate: 5 # Rate at which favor decays over time
decay-interval: 1200 # How often favor decays (in seconds) 1200 = 1 day

blessing-threshold: 150
curse-threshold: 35
miracle-threshold: 210

Color

Favor values are also visually represented through color changes to provide instant feedback to players about their standing with their deity:

• Red: Low Favor (below the curse threshold)
• Yellow: Medium Favor (between curse and blessing thresholds)
• Green: High Favor (above blessing threshold but below miracle threshold)
• Aqua: Exceptional Favor (above miracle threshold)

These colors help players understand their current status and how close they are to receiving blessings, incurring curses, or witnessing miracles.
