Little Geode
by TorsePoil
Little Geode adds small geodes that players crack open by right-clicking them, and each one drops items from a themed table.
What it does
Geodes drop from breaking blocks. Stone, deepslate, netherrack, endstone, the andesite and granite family, sand, clay, basalt, blackstone and most dirt variants can yield them, and dirt, grass, podzol, mycelium, mud, muddy mangrove roots and the nylium variants give organic geodes more often. Fortune affects the drop chance, and the config file controls the drop rates for each block group.
Each geode type has its own table. Mineral geodes hold mineral-based items, oceanic geodes hold what is usually found underwater, organic geodes hold seeds, saplings, rotten flesh and bone, fire geodes hold nether-related blocks and items, void geodes hold end-related ones, and egg geodes hold spawn eggs for mobs other than slimes. The mod is built around this single item, and the geode drops are added to the main loot table of each block.
The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, with release files for 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.4, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. Both the server and every player need it, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source. The latest Forge file is 1.5.0 for 1.20.1, and the latest NeoForge file is 1.6.2 for 1.21.1.
Key features
Cracking small geodes
A small geode is opened by right-clicking it while holding a geode in hand, which yields its loot.
Five geode types
Mineral, oceanic, organic, fire, void and egg geodes each draw from their own item pool.
Block-based drop chances
Stone-based blocks give geodes at about 1% and nether or end blocks at 0.5%, while sand, clay and dirt give 0.1%.
Config-driven drop rates
Drop rates for each block group can be changed in the config file, which also updates older installs after a regeneration.

Little geode is a mod centered around one item: a geode. If you're updating from an older version of the mod (up to 1.6.2), plz delete the config file so it can regenerate itsef.
