FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.20.3

What it does

Barricades adds a wooden barricade block that can be placed on walls to cover windows. Players hold the barricade item and right-click a wall to place one. The barricade is an entity that takes damage from both vanilla and modded damage sources. It has 5 hit points, which is five hearts in the game's own display, and each hit removes one heart. When a barricade breaks it drops nothing.

Zombies break barricades, and how quickly they do so depends on the difficulty setting. The crafting recipe uses planks placed diagonally on the crafting grid and yields 16 barricades. The mod is a lightweight addition, and a detailed table is included for reference. Its source code is on GitHub under the MIT License.

Barricades requires Fabric API. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files exist for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20.2 and 1.20.3, and the latest Fabric file is 1.0+1.20.3 for 1.20.3, published on 2025-03-22.
