Double Shulker Shell Drops
by o-Peepo
With Double Shulker Shell Drops installed on the server, a shulker that dies always leaves at least two shulker shells behind, so no odd-numbered shell is left over.
What it does
The drop is not fixed: shulkers still have only a 50 percent chance to drop shells, but when they do, the amount is two instead of one. The point is to end up with enough shells to craft a shulker box, which takes two.
Installation is done through a data pack rather than a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge or Quilt mod, so the same file can be placed on a server. To use it, zip the pack and place it in the datapacks folder of the world save, then restart the world or run the reload command.
Key features
Two-shell minimum
Shulkers that drop shells leave at least two, so a player can craft a shulker box without collecting a second shell elsewhere.
Drop chance unchanged
The 50 percent chance to drop shells is kept, so shulkers do not always drop shells.
Data pack install
The change is applied by a zipped data pack placed in the world save's datapacks folder and loaded by a restart or reload.

What the author says
This data pack makes shulkers drop 2 shells if they drop any when dying, this is to make sure you don't end up with an odd number of shells since you need 2 shells to make one shulker box. put the zipped file in the data packs folder, and either restart your world or execute /reload
