DragonDeleter
DragonDeleter removes the Ender Dragon fight from the End through a set of configurable options on Quilt servers.
What it does
Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) and Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL) are both required to run DragonDeleter. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it, and only the server needs it. Quilt is the only loader with files, published for Minecraft 1.19 – 1.19.4 in five release versions, with 1.1.1 for 1.19.4 as the latest file, dated 2023-04-18.
The main setting disables dragon spawning altogether, whether the End is first loaded or the dragon would respawn. The default is true, and the dragon still spawns the first time the End is entered. A separate option stops respawning with four end crystals, so no ritual can bring the boss back. Four game rules cover the rest of the behavior, and the mod is open source under the MIT License, with a public source code repository and an issue tracker.
Dragon egg handling is also configurable. Teleportation can be disabled so the egg can be broken, or left enabled to make it unbreakable, since its hardness and blast resistance can be set to bedrock levels. The egg can respawn the first time the dragon is killed, and the mod can make that respawn renewable. Some settings do not take effect as expected, and the author recommends setting disableDragonEggTeleportation to false unless an unbreakable dragon pillar is wanted.
Key features
Dragon spawning off
The dragon never spawns in the End when the main setting is enabled, which is the default.
No respawn by crystals
Placing four end crystals does not bring the Ender Dragon back when the respawn option is disabled.
Dragon egg control
Teleportation of the dragon egg can be turned off so the egg breaks like a normal block, or left on to keep it fixed.
Egg hardness and resistance
The egg's hardness and blast resistance can be raised to bedrock values, making it indestructible.
Four game rules
The mod includes four game rules for adjusting the End and dragon behavior on a server.
