Experience Extra
by Dh
Experience Extra, a Forge world generation mod for 1.20.1, adds experience-related ores, a new enchantment training path and creatures that help players find experience seeds.
What it does
Experience ores generate underground and can be found below y level 10, so mining deeper ranges is where players will look for them. Breeding the Experiencesaurus creature with the right seeds is another route to acquiring the material the mod revolves around, and a Sniffer can be used to locate Experience Seeds in the world.
The mod also introduces a new enchantment training option and raises the amount of experience gained from killing mobs, which speeds up progression for players who farm or fight. Experience Extra is a small addition built around one theme. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is published for Forge only, targeting 1.20.1 under the MIT License. The code is not open source.
Key features

How it compares
Gems & Things is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, and it is client and server like Experience Extra, but it is not open source. Z's Wildscape is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 with client and server installs, published under All rights reserved, so its license differs from this mod's MIT License. Forced seed is the closest in environment: it is server required with client optional, so servers can run it without players installing anything, and it is released under the MIT License.
