no fun allowed
by repulica
no fun allowed restricts what items can be used and where, based on data components set on the items themselves, for adventure mode servers.
What it does
The mod checks the data components on each item and blocks its use when the component marks it as restricted, so a server can keep players from triggering items that would break an adventure map. Restrictions are written as item tags. A tag can ignore a location check, require a strict component, disable an item entirely, or delete items that are usable. Block tags can disable left and right clicking on the blocks they cover.
Each restriction can be limited to a permitted area. The area is a box object with minimum and maximum x, y and z values, optionally tied to a dimension identifier. Item usage by location only works for right click. The approach borrows from existing adventure helpers, adapting their component format so that hazardous items can be kept out of adventure mode. It was created after a problem came up at BlanketCon 23 in a creative context.
The mod is licensed under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21, and the mod runs on client and server. Other mods can use their own component types for locational use, but they do not replace this format.
