Omicron
Omicron is a Forge technology mod for 1.20.1 that adds flamethrowers, explosives and extra ores to the game.
What it does
Players use the mod's versatile equipment to simplify tasks and add fuel types, flamethrowers and dynamites for combat or mining. The author describes a mildly chemically accurate approach, with production chains modeled loosely on real life, and plans further fuels and explosive substances in future updates.
The mod runs on both client and server, so every player and the server need it. Builds exist for Forge on 1.20.1 only, the latest being 1.2.1, released 2026-02-05. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

What the author says
Mildly chemicaly accurate mod, that adds flamethrowers (more fuels in future updates), real life ores and more dynamites and explosive substances. This mod is developed slowly as real life production chains are complicated, but small or average updates will come from time to time.
