Gunpowder Recipe Mod

by rcatlab

Gunpowder Recipe Mod lets players craft gunpowder at a crafting table from coal, flint, bone meal, and redstone instead of hunting creepers.

FabricForgeServer-side onlyMIT License1.20 – 1.20.4

What it does

Gunpowder becomes a crafting recipe built from coal, flint, bone meal, and redstone, so explosives, fireworks and other gunpowder items no longer depend on drops from creepers or dungeon chests. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required on the Fabric build, and files exist for Fabric and Forge across 1.20 – 1.20.4.

Key features

  1. Crafted gunpowder

    Gunpowder is made at a crafting table from coal, flint, bone meal and redstone.

  2. Resource-independent explosives

    Explosives and fireworks can be made without scavenging creeper drops or dungeon loot.

  3. Exploration strategy

    Having a steady supply of gunpowder opens different plans for mining, combat and exploration.

Questions

Does Gunpowder Recipe Mod need Fabric API?

Yes, on the Fabric build Fabric API must be installed alongside the mod. The Forge build has no such requirement.
