BoomTNT
by Kurzer
Explosions in BoomTNT go well beyond vanilla TNT, since four explosive blocks each trigger a different effect: swapping blocks, launching farm animals, turning creepers, or making nearby mobs dance.
What it does
BoomTNT replaces plain vanilla TNT with four explosive blocks. Each one applies its own effect in the area around it, from swapping blocks within a five-block radius to scattering fifteen random farm animals outward at high speed. Mobs within ten blocks of a Creeper Plague TNT turn into ordinary creepers, and a Soundcloud TNT makes mobs within fifteen blocks move randomly for ten seconds while playing loud sounds and shaking the screen.
The mod runs on Fabric and needs both the client and the server, so every player and the server must install it. Its files target 1.21.1, 26.2 and 26.3, and the latest build is 1.0.0 for 26.3, released under the Apache License 2.0. The code is not open source.
