MREs
by Timothaty
MREs lets players unpack military rations and eat their contents, using shears, an opener item and a Combat Knife for the pieces that need cutting.
What it does
Military MREs are added as items that players open by holding Shift and right-clicking them. Canned foods cannot be eaten directly, so the opener has to sit in the off-hand while the main-hand item is right-clicked to open it. Items such as povidlo jam are unpacked with shears, following the same principle as the canned foods.
Some items, like rye bread, are cut into pieces with a Combat Knife. Unpacking leaves empty cardboard boxes behind. Survival mode is supported only in part, and a French MRE variant is included.
The mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1 only, with the latest file 0.4 published on 2024-09-22. Both the server and every player need it. It requires Geckolib, and the code is under All rights reserved rather than an open source license.
Key features
Unpackable military rations
Each MRE is opened in a set order, with its contents released one by one when unpacked.
Opener-based canned food
Canned items are eaten only after opening with an off-hand tool, a step that adds a small routine to meals.
Cutting with a Combat Knife
Some foods, such as rye bread, are divided into pieces using the Combat Knife.
Empty cardboard boxes
Unpacking produces empty cardboard boxes as a leftover item.
