Pointless Piglins
by VEN-Xerax
On Fabric servers, a gamerule added by Pointless Piglins keeps zombified piglins that generate naturally from being equipped with golden spears.
What it does
A gamerule named pointless-piglins:disableGoldenSpear keeps zombified piglins that spawn in the world from carrying golden spears, which removes a chain-kill setup used for gold farming. Piglins placed by structures or created with spawn eggs and commands are unaffected. Fabric API is required. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files exist for 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, with 1.1.0 for 26.3 as the latest.
Key features
Golden spear gamerule
Setting the pointless-piglins:disableGoldenSpear gamerule to true means naturally generated zombified piglins will not be given golden spears.
Gold farm control
Zombified piglins with golden spears are often chain-killed for gold, and the gamerule removes that spawn type from the world.
Structure and command piglins
Piglins generated by structures or summoned with spawn eggs and commands keep their normal equipment.
