No grief endermen
No grief endermen stops endermen from picking up blocks and carrying them off while they remain angry at a player.
What it does
Endermen normally pick up blocks such as grass, dirt and gravel and carry them away, which can wreck builds, farms and terrain. This mod keeps them from doing that, including the case where an enderman stays angry at a player for longer than usual and keeps trying to take blocks. The behavior is blocked on the server, so the mobs themselves still spawn and attack as before.
The mod is a server-side only Fabric mod for 1.21.1 and needs Fabric API installed alongside it. Players join without installing anything, and a server owner adds the jar to the mods folder with Fabric API. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source, and only the 1.21.1 build is listed.
Key features
Blocked block theft
Endermen cannot pick up blocks, even while they are still angry at a player.
Terrain stays intact
Farms, builds and natural terrain are no longer dug up and moved by endermen.
Mobs keep their combat
Endermen still spawn and fight; only the block-carrying behavior is prevented.
Server-only install
Only the server needs the jar, so clients join without any mod installed.
