Plague Delight is a Forge add-on for Farmer's Delight that adds disease mechanics, where players catch illnesses from mobs and the environment and treat them with crafted medicines.

What it does

Players can catch one of several diseases through interaction with mobs, drinking, swimming in wet biomes and contact with the environment. Each disease is tied to a source: anthrax to sheep, coronavirus to bats, rabies to dogs, cats and bats, salmonella to chickens, scarlet fever to piglins, smallpox to cows and villagers, swine flu to pigs, plague to villagers and pillagers, dysentery to drinking, and malaria to swimming in wet biomes. Ten diseases are added in total.

Cultivating pathogens and combining ingredients produces four medicines and vaccines. Vaccines grant immunity until the player dies. Advancements guide the player through the mod.

Plague Delight requires Farmer's Delight, is built for Forge and targets 1.20.1 only. The 1.20.1-0.1.0 build was published on 2025-09-17 on the beta channel. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with a public source repository and issue tracker. The mod is still in pre-release, and the author plans to add more functionality.
