No Creeper Griefing

by Bybycyann

No Creeper Griefing stops creeper explosions from breaking blocks, and it can also remove the damage they deal to entities.

What it does

The mod turns off the block destruction caused by creeper explosions, so terrain and builds stay intact when a creeper detonates nearby. Creeper damage to entities is left in place by default. Server owners who want creepers to hurt nothing can switch off the entity damage as well, using the game rules that the mod's data pack provides. The mod is provided as a data pack for servers and is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. The server needs it, while players may add it as well. Files cover game versions 1.21 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Block protection

    Creeper explosions no longer destroy blocks, which keeps player builds and farms from being damaged.

  2. Optional damage removal

    A separate game rule can also disable the damage creepers deal to entities, so the explosion does nothing to mobs or players.

  3. Data pack setup

    Changes come through the data pack, and the same game rules can be set by command if a server owner prefers.

What the author says

By default, this data pack disables block destruction caused by Creeper explosions. While block griefing is disabled (creeper_griefing = 0(false)), Creepers still deal damage to entities — set creeper_damage = 0(false) as well to disable that damage too. Q1. How do I change a Creeper's ExplosionRadius?
