Floor is Lava UHC Gamemode

additional scenarios should be cutclean and whatever else the main twist would be is that when meetup starts, the lava starts rising by 1 block from the lowest surface level block every 30 seconds. 2 issues I can think of is players that could just use water buckets (maybe disabled water buckets at meetup?), and also the skybasing height limit, (maybe the skybase limit increased every time the lava rises?)

additional ideas but not necessary:
maybe players could receive a fire resistance splash potion that lasts for a short time as a "second life"
all water in the world is replaced by lava along with rising lava at meetup

Does the lava replace any block (except bedrock) or should the lava "fill" empty blocks only?

About the water buckets, maybe we can allow them, but water does not flow over other blocks, making it only useful to extinguish yourself. We don't want most games to end with people dying in lava or with fire damage.

Replacing a lot of blocks is an "intensive" operation and will definitely cause FPS lag spikes because of the huge amount of block updates sent to clients. Slow PCs will definitely suffer!

I think it would replace empty blocks only? whichever way works better, the water bucket idea sounds nice! Idk about low pcs, my main concern was the servers TPS, people could turn their specs down if they play this gamemode maybe I feel like it's runnable on most pcs? If you crank things down to like 4 render distance, fast details, etc

The TPS should not be affected as I would make it so it won't affect the TPS, but it will definitely use more server resources.

I am unsure if setting a lower render distance is enough to prevent the server from sending chunk updates to clients within the server render distance, but it's worth a try.

Also I think the lava should not rise above level 67 or something like that to help with the "skybasing" rule. No meetup (you would be teleported into lava), the border just shrinks to 20x20 in 30 minutes.

i think that could work too

At the moment, this can be just kept as a Scenario, and it can be picked in Scenario Madness or in Custom Games.
