Fountain Path

Emits falling blocks of which the base location follows a specified path.

Parameters​

ParameterDescriptionExample
PathThe path the fountain’s origin follows, formatted as world, x1, y1, z1; x2, y2, z2; x3, y3, z3. Separate multiple locations with a semicolon (;).world, 196.3, 64, -381.8; 199.3, 65, -375.8; 205.8, 61, -361.8
VelocitySets the velocity of the falling blocks to launch them in a specific direction. Keep values reasonable (around a max of 10). Format is x, y, z.1, 1.5, 0
BlockThe Minecraft block used as the falling block. Items are not supported.BLUE_STAINED_GLASS
BlockDataOptional block state data (e.g., open gate, rotated stair). Use [] for none. See block states for details.[open=true]
RandomizerAdds random variation to the velocity. Values between 0 and 1 are recommended for natural effects.0.5
SpeedSpeed at which the origin moves along the path, measured in blocks per second.5
FrequencyWhen speed is high, gaps can appear between spawned entities or particles. Frequency controls how many entities/particles spawn per block to fill these gaps. This activates only if the default spawn rate is lower than the frequency setting.5
SplineTypeThe spline type which will be used for the path. This can be POLY_CHAIN for straight lines, BEZIER for extremely smooth lines which don't go over the exact points or CATMULL_ROM for smooth lines which do go over the points.CATMULL_ROM
DelayNumber of ticks to wait after the show starts before activating the effect.40

Frequency details​

Minecraft spawns a new entity or particle every tick. At very high speeds, this can cause visible gaps between entities or particles. The frequency parameter ensures more entities/particles spawn per block to maintain a continuous appearance.

For example, a particle moving 10 blocks with a speed of 1 and frequency 5 will not trigger frequency because the spawn density is already high (20 particles per block). At speed 10, only 2 particles per block spawn normally, so frequency kicks in to add more and fill gaps.
