Iguana in a Blanket
by dexman545
Iguana in a Blanket applies weight to items, so carried stacks slow a player and change how harder survival plays out.
What it does
Each item carries a weight, and the total weight of a player's inventory feeds into several effects: walking speed, flying speed, hunger use and damage taken from entities. Heavier loads also affect strength and weakness potions, and the mod includes an item stack size scale so a single potion does not fill a stack. Terrain can slow or speed up entities, certain blocks affect movement, and some enchantments are set to ignore these rules.
The mod is a Fabric recreation of the Iguana Tweaks idea for modern Minecraft and adds a hardness scale for blocks, a health slowdown and a bed that can behave differently, including randomized respawn positions. A hold-to-charge key lets players throw items and watch the distance, and an FOV clamp limits how much the field of view changes. A config system exposes these features for server owners.
Iguana in a Blanket is built for Fabric and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source. Files exist for 1.16.4 and 1.16.5, with 2.0.1 for 1.16.5 as the latest build, published on 2021-01-22.
