What it does

Copper Essential adds copper armor and copper tools, so the metal has equipment roles beyond building blocks. It also adds scrap metal and villagers, along with several other additions the author describes as interesting. The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge across three release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, and both the server and every player need it installed. The code is not open source; the author holds all rights.

Key features

  1. Copper armor set

    A full set of copper armor that players can craft and wear.

  2. Copper tools

    Copper tools join the game so the metal is useful in everyday mining and crafting.

  3. Scrap metal and villagers

    Scrap metal and villagers that trade in the mod's items add new sources and uses for copper.
