Deep Mob Learning: Backported
by 9p4
Deep Mob Learning: Backported brings the Deep Mob Learning loot system back to Minecraft 1.18.2 on Fabric and Quilt.
What it does
The mod gives an alternative way to acquire mob loot, focused on matter extraction in place of standard drops. Players extract matter from defeated mobs using Matrix Glitches, which puts the emphasis on intense duels rather than farming. Newer features are carried over and adapted to 1.18.2, and the author notes that some parts may still break and will be fixed as reports arrive.
The server and every player need the mod installed. Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin are required dependencies, and Roughly Enough Items (REI) is optional, adding an integration that shows custom recipes in-game. Server owners and modpack creators can adjust the mod through datapacks and config files, and ModMenu exposes some settings in the in-game Escape menu.
