Golden Finger

by RisingInIris2017

Golden Finger is a Forge server mod that fills a chest with a chosen loot table when a player clicks it.

ForgeServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.18.2

What it does

Clicking a chest fills it with contents drawn from a loot table the player picks. The mod is built around debugging loot tables, and its tables can be customized in detail, which suits special gameplay that needs particular rewards. Player control runs through the golden finger command, which non-operator players can reach, while the command settings are set only in the server config file, golden-finger-server.toml.

Because the mod runs on the server alone, players join without installing it. A modpack can carry the config file in its defaultconfig directory. Tools such as CraftTweaker or KubeJS can change NBT tag values directly, and the author points to a JSON datapack from the GitHub release for customizing the tables, with a link to fuller instructions.

The file is published for Forge on 1.18.2 only, dated 2024-05-12. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Loot table chest filling

    A clicked chest is filled with the loot table the player selects, so the contents are chosen rather than random.

  2. Customizable loot tables

    Loot tables can be adjusted in detail and are built for debugging, including tables for special gameplay needs.

  3. Command access for players

    The golden finger command can be used by non-operator players, and its permissions are set in the server config.

  4. Datapack customization

    A JSON datapack from the GitHub release lets server owners customize the tables in more detail.

Use cases

Modpack configuration

Modpack makers can ship the config file in defaultconfig and adjust NBT values with CraftTweaker or KubeJS.

Who it’s for: Server owners and modpack makers who want chest contents chosen by a loot table and set up through a config file or datapack. Only the server needs the mod, so players on the server can join without it.
