Sheep don't drop wool

by GFBruno

Sheep don't drop wool is a server-side tweak that stops sheep from dropping wool when they are killed.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT License1.21.9 – 26.3

What it does

Sheep no longer drop wool when they die, so the only way to collect it is to shear the animal. Players who want wool have to use shears on a living sheep, which changes how farms and early game resources work. Builds cover 1.21.9 – 26.3 for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the server required and the client optional under the MIT License. The code is not open source.

Key features

  1. No wool from killed sheep

    Killing a sheep no longer leaves wool behind, so the drop is removed from the loot table.

  2. Shears required for wool

    Players collect wool by shearing a sheep, the same action used in vanilla, which keeps shears central to wool gathering.

  3. Data pack option

    The change is also available as a data pack for servers that prefer that install method over a mod.
