killbind/explode

by PixelatedFace

Explode adds two keybinds that instantly kill a player or trigger a harmless explosion, configurable from an options menu.

ForgeClient and serverApache License 2.01.20.1

What it does

Explode adds kill and explode keybinds, which can be assigned from its options menu. Pressing the kill key instantly kills the targeted player, while the explode key produces an explosion effect that destroys blocks but hurts no one. The mod is built for Forge 1.20.1 and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published under the Apache License 2.0, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  2. Explode keybind

    A second key creates an explosion effect that breaks blocks without damaging anyone.

  3. Options menu

How it compares

Full comparison

One Hit Kill is another Forge 1.20.1 option that is server-side only and uses the MIT License, so players can join without installing it. Extra Origin Keybinds also runs on 1.20.1 for client and server, with the same MIT License, but it adds keybinds for Origins powers rather than kill and explosion actions.
