Instant TNT

by weinor

Instant TNT removes the fuse delay from TNT, so ignited blocks explode right away instead of after a timer.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalApache License 2.01.14 – 26.3

What it does

Normally TNT waits a few seconds after ignition before it detonates. Instant TNT removes that wait, so any TNT that is lit goes off at once. Farms and traps built around TNT timers then fire without delay. The mod is sometimes used in PvP and other custom game setups where a fast explosion is wanted.

Instant TNT is a data pack and also comes as a mod for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, published for 1.14 – 26.3. It needs to be on the server, since the server controls the explosion timing, while players can join without installing anything. The code is under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Immediate detonation

    Ignited TNT explodes the moment it is lit, with no countdown to wait through.

  2. Timer-free farms

    TNT-based farms and contraptions that rely on fuse timing run without the usual delay.

  3. Data pack option

    The same change can be added as a data pack, which is placed in the world's datapacks folder and loaded by a restart or a reload command.

Questions

Does Instant TNT have to be installed on the client?

Not necessarily. Only the server needs it for the explosion change to apply, so a player can join without installing it.
