Doom's It's Still Explosive
by JustDoom
Doom's It's Still Explosive makes items that are explosive in their item form explode, and it extends the same behavior to TNT, TNT Minecarts, gunpowder, fire and lava.
What it does
Explosions in this mod scale with the size of the item stack involved, so a larger stack produces a bigger blast. Fire can destroy the affected items and TNT can be set off by ignition, which lets the chain reaction travel through a storage area or a build. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it and only the server runs the explosive behavior.
The config file controls how explosive items are and how much their explosions scale, so a server owner can tune the effect to a world or a minigame. The mod requires Fabric or Forge, and each release matches one loader. Files exist for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3 and 1.20.4 under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Explosive item forms
Items in their item form become explosive, so dropping or igniting them can trigger a blast.
TNT and minecarts
TNT, TNT Minecarts and gunpowder explode, and fire or lava can set off the chain.
Stack-based scaling
The size of an explosion grows with the item stack size, so larger stacks cause bigger blasts.
Configurable behavior
A config file sets which items are explosive and how strongly their explosions scale.

Who it’s for: Server owners and players who want explosions to depend on item stack size. Because the mod is server-side only, it suits servers that want the effect without asking players to install anything.
How it compares
Everything is TNT runs on Fabric for 1.20.6 – 26.3 under the MIT License, so it covers later versions than this mod. Furynace is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later and is limited to Fabric and Quilt for 1.20.1. Explosive Stick requires both the client and server and is not open source, with Forge files for 1.20.1 – 1.20.6. Doom's It's Still Explosive covers 1.20.1 – 1.20.4 on Fabric and Forge, server-side only.
