GoldenTweaks StationAPI

by Telvarost

GoldenTweaks StationAPI gives gold tools and gold armor special properties on the Babric loader for Minecraft b1.7.3.

FabricBabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen sourceb1.7.3

What it does

Gold tools gain effects that normally belong to enchantments: a gold axe and a gold shovel can use Silk Touch, and the gold tools can apply bonus drops to blocks and mobs. Gold armor provides small advantages, and those effects are limited mostly to certain mob types. Babric and StationAPI are the loader and API this build runs on, and StationAPI is listed as optional for the grass block item renderer fix.

The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Babric and Fabric on b1.7.3 only. Snapshot builds are published. Players join a multiplayer server without special steps once the server and clients both run the mod, and the author notes that multiplayer syncing of configs works with GlassConfigAPI version 3.0 or later. Mod Menu is an optional dependency for players who want to change settings from a menu.

Because the environment is client and server, both the server and every player need the mod for the gold tool and armor changes to behave the same across a world. Public links to the source code and the issue tracker are available. The first release was published on 2024-04-18 and the last update on 2025-02-16.

Key features

  1. Silk Touch on gold tools

    A gold axe and a gold shovel can harvest blocks with Silk Touch, keeping the block itself when broken.

  2. Bonus drops on gold

    Gold tools can increase block drops and mob drops according to the effect each tool carries.

  3. Gold armor effects

    Gold armor grants small advantages, limited mostly to certain mob types.

  4. Extra blocks

    The mod also adds wood stairs, clay blocks and farmland blocks to the building options.

No per-version build data

Questions

Does GoldenTweaks StationAPI need StationAPI?

StationAPI is listed as an optional dependency. The mod uses it for a renderer fix, so the core gold tool features do not depend on it.

Do both the server and the players need the mod?

Yes. Installation covers the server and each player's game.

Does the mod sync configuration in multiplayer?

The author notes that multiplayer works with GlassConfigAPI version 3.0 or later, which is used to sync configs.
