Tornado Plugin
This plugin adds dynamic tornadoes to Minecraft worlds. Tornadoes move through the terrain, pick up entities, destroy blocks, and create chaotic storms around them.
They can spawn automatically or be created manually with commands.
Tornado strength ranges from EF0 to EF5, with stronger tornadoes causing more destruction.
🕹️Functions
🌪 Realistic tornado movement
Tornadoes move across the world instead of staying in one place.
🌪 Entity lifting
Players, mobs, and dropped items can be lifted and pulled into the tornado.
🌪 Block destruction
The tornado destroys blocks near the ground.
🌪 Lightning strikes
Lightning can occasionally strike around the tornado during storms.
🌪 Configurable behavior
Most parameters can be changed in the config.yml.
You can configure:
- tornado height
- bottom radius
- top radius
- automatic spawn settings
- and other parameters.
Tornado Levels
Tornadoes can spawn with different strengths:
EF0 — very weak EF1 EF2 EF3 EF4 EF5 — extremely destructive
Stronger tornadoes lift more entities and destroy more blocks.
Commands
Create a tornado:
/tornado <x> <y> <z> <duration> <speed> <direction> <ef>
Parameters
x y z — spawn coordinates duration — tornado lifetime in seconds speed — movement speed direction — movement direction ef — tornado strength (ef0–ef5)
Directions
north south east west player (uses the direction the player is looking)
Example
/tornado 100 64 200 60 0.06 north ef3

Performance Warning
⚠ This plugin can be performance intensive.
Especially with EF4–EF5 tornadoes:
weak servers may experience TPS drops
players may experience FPS drops
For better performance it is recommended to:
use EF5 tornadoes only for special events
reduce tornado parameters in config.yml
