What it does

The Potater Bomb is a throwable explosive made from a potato, and the mod turns Minecraft's throwable explosives into a vegetable-based version. A Potater Station, which can be placed anywhere in the world, handles the crafting: a player first turns a potato into an empty barrel-shaped Potater, and then fills it using the slots shown in the station. Gunpowder is needed to make the first Potater, since normal potatoes alone cannot form one. Once the Potater is complete, it appears grayscale, gains its color, and can be taken out as a Potater Bomb.

Crafting stays simple with a few steps. Holding and left-clicking throws the bomb, and each throw costs durability, which is shown in the item description. Extra ingredients change the end result: plain potatoes raise durability at a rate of 1x, gunpowder raises it at 1.5x, and other base ingredients such as Baked Potatoes, Poisonous Potatoes and Redstone Dust add more. Durability can reach 182 at most. Modifiers are added by placing a Potater head over the Potater Station and inserting allowed items into the modifier slot, and clicking the modifier slot again removes them.

The mod runs on the server, and players need it only to craft and throw bombs. It is published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt on Minecraft 1.19 – 1.19.3, and a data pack and resource pack are included. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Potater Station

    A block where the Potater is built, with slots for base ingredients and a modifier slot for extra effects.

  2. Durability from ingredients

    Adding potatoes, gunpowder or other base ingredients raises the durability of the finished Potater Bomb.

  3. Modifiers

    A Potater head placed over the station accepts allowed items in the modifier slot, and modifiers can be removed by clicking the slot again.

  4. Grayscale to color

    A finished Potater starts grayscale, then gains its color once the recipe is complete.

How it compares

Full comparison

More Explosives is a Fabric-only client and server mod for 1.19.2 under the MIT License, and it is open source. Potatoes (and their uses) runs on Fabric and Forge for 1.19.2 – 1.19.4 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and it is also open source. Bomb Barrage is a Fabric and Forge mod for 1.20.1 that is not open source and is released under All rights reserved, so it does not cover the 1.19 range that Potater Bombs targets.

Questions

Does Potater Bombs need to be installed on the client?

No. Only the server has to run the mod, while players can leave it out, though they need it to use the station.

Which loaders does Potater Bombs support?

Fabric, Forge and Quilt. The latest file for each loader is 1.0.0+mod for 1.19.3, released 2023-01-11.

Why does a Potater need gunpowder?

The first Potater cannot be made from normal potatoes alone, so gunpowder is required for the initial recipe. Later additions to the base ingredients raise durability.
