Candycanvas
by Yedel
Candycanvas randomizes the results of block events, explosions, liquid collisions and block generation on servers that run Fabric.
What it does
Candycanvas changes outcomes that vanilla keeps fixed. Block events can produce a randomized result, liquid collisions can turn into a different block, and the stone, obsidian, cobblestone and basalt generation rules can each be randomized on their own. Explosions can also be given random results, so the same blast does not always leave the same terrain behind.
Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. The server owner can adjust the randomization through the settings provided by SuperMartijn642's Config Lib, which is required along with Fabric API. Candycanvas is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is published for Fabric across 26.1 – 26.3.
Builds exist for 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, and the latest file is 2.0.1 for 26.3, released on 2026-09-18. The mod was first published on 2026-08-25.
Key features
Randomized block events
Block events can produce a random outcome instead of the single result vanilla uses.
Randomized liquid collisions
When flowing liquids meet, the resulting block is chosen at random from the configured options.
Individual generation rules
Stone, obsidian, cobblestone and basalt generation can each be randomized separately, so one block type can change without affecting the rest.
Randomized explosions
Explosions can leave different terrain results, changing which blocks break and what replaces them.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who want terrain and block behavior to vary from one run to the next. Players only need to join the server; the mod does not have to be installed on their side.
How it compares
Damage Randomizer is a client and server Fabric mod for 26.1 – 26.2 under All rights reserved, so it covers damage rather than block outcomes. Portal Randomizer is server-side only, open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and published for 1.21.8, so it targets portals instead of terrain. Candycanvas is server-side only and covers block events and generation for 26.1 – 26.3.
