Chaotic Cows
by KunamiMC
Chaotic Cows is a NeoForge mod in which striking an ordinary cow can set off unexpected events, from Bastions appearing across the world to a farming block that yields full resources.
What it does
Hitting a cow can trigger strange results. Structures appear without warning and turn peaceful landscapes into dangerous battlegrounds. Bastion structures packed with durable foes, useful loot and scarce progression items appear across the world, which makes traveling the map a requirement for players who want steady advancement. Eyes of Ender can be found in Bastion chests, and End Portal Frames are hidden inside dangerous fortresses, which changes how players reach the End dimension. Strongholds are no longer the only route, and Bastions take a central role in the adventure.
Obtaining the mod's special automated farming block requires facing the chaos that the cows set loose. The block produces complete resources, saving time and raising efficiency. Chaotic Cows works on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.8 only, with 1.2.3 as the latest file, released under the MIT License. The mod is not open source.

Eyes of Ender in chests
Bastion chests contain Eyes of Ender, giving a route into the End that does not depend only on strongholds.
Automated farming block
