Here be Dragons
by YeahAkis_
Here be Dragons removes the Experimental Settings warning screen that appears when a world is loaded with certain world generation datapacks.
What it does
Players who load a world with experimental datapacks get a confirmation screen asking them to acknowledge the risk each time. The mod skips that screen and loads the world directly, so the warning no longer interrupts the start of play. Players who regularly use datapacks often find the same confirmation tiresome after repeated use, and this removes the extra click.
The mod changes only the screen that appears before a world loads. It does not alter world data, datapack contents or gameplay, and nothing else in the game is touched. It is published for Fabric only, across 12 release versions 1.21 – 1.21.11, and it is client-side only, so servers do not need it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and source code and an issue tracker are linked publicly.

How it compares
ServerBackupFabric is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, runs server-side only and is published for 1.21.5, so it does not affect the warning screen. Litematica Backup is a client-side only mod under the MIT License, published for 1.21 – 26.3, and covers schematic backups rather than loading prompts. Better World Backup is licensed as All rights reserved and runs on client and server for 1.21 – 26.3, which is a different purpose from skipping the prompt.
