What it does

Loose items near an explosion are no longer launched into the air or deleted. The mod covers TNT, creepers and modded explosions, and it was tested with Sortilege Explosive Arrows. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. It is published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1, and is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Items survive blasts

    Dropped items within reach of an explosion stay where they landed instead of being flung or destroyed.

  2. Modded explosions included

    The effect applies to vanilla TNT and creepers as well as explosions added by other mods.

  3. Block drop option

    Setting the blockExplosionDropDecay gamerule to false is recommended, so explosions drop damaged blocks as usual.
