More Datapack Features
More Datapack Features, from the author shadowmanreal, adds new commands, attributes and item behaviors that datapacks can use on a Fabric server.
What it does
The mod extends what datapacks can do on Fabric for 1.21. It adds new commands and attributes, and it includes a Dummy Item that raises a scoreboard value when right-clicked, plus a food entry that increases the player's hunger level by a value the datapack specifies. Crafting recipes can compare the component values of their ingredients with the components of the input item, and a craft requirement can require the same component on both items.
Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Its one published Fabric build targets 1.21 and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The catalog lists 5744 Game mechanics mods with Fabric files for 1.21, and this one sits in that group as a utility for datapack authors.
Key features
New commands and attributes
The mod adds commands and attributes that datapacks can call, extending the vanilla command set.
Dummy Item
A dummy item increases a scoreboard value on right-click, so a datapack can count clicks without other logic.
Configurable food
A food entry increases the hunger level by a value set in the datapack, instead of a fixed amount.
Component-aware crafting
Recipes can check that ingredient components match the input item, and a craft requirement can compare components across both items.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Scoreboard-driven items
A datapack can tie a right-click action to a scoreboard value with the Dummy Item, for simple counters or triggers.
Custom food values
Map makers can set how much hunger a food restores through the food entry, so each item can differ.
Component-based recipes
Recipe makers can require matching components on ingredients, so items with different data do not combine.
Who it’s for: Datapack authors and server owners who want more options for commands, items and recipes on a Fabric server running 1.21.
