Aieau's traps
by Aieau
Aieau's traps adds placeable traps that catch, slow or tease mobs and other players, built to sit alongside vanilla blocks.
What it does
The mod adds traps for fights against mobs and for playful tricks on friends. Its traps stay close to vanilla in feel and balance, and they combine with the blocks already in the game. Forge and NeoForge builds cover 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, and the mod is released under the AFL-3.0 license and is not open source. Both the server and every player need it, so it has to be installed on each side.
