Quality Of MC
by fredoxy
Quality Of MC is a NeoForge quality-of-life mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that changes several everyday mechanics, from boats and arrows to mining and mob behavior.
What it does
The mod targets both casual and more demanding players. It adds small conveniences that the author describes as functions some players lack in vanilla: arrows can be returned after a target dies, entities can be extinguished with a water bucket by right-clicking them, and boat speed can be raised through a configurable maximum speed coefficient. Some mob behavior is also changed, with mobs pushing and transporting entities for other purposes.
The Affordable Miner enchantment is the main gameplay addition. Its level gates the area a tool mines: one level covers a 3x3x1 area, and a higher level extends the same effect to a 3x3x3 area. Settings are adjusted in-game by pressing Y, which opens a rebindable key for the mod's options. Quality Of MC is client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, and the code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Area mining enchantment
Affordable Miner mines a 3x3x1 area at its first level and a 3x3x3 area at its higher level.
Return arrows
Arrows can return to the player after the target dies, with the option to keep or drop the arrow's potion effect.
Water bucket extinguishing
Right-clicking an entity with a water bucket puts out its fire.
Configurable boat speed
A maximum speed coefficient lets server owners and players raise boat speed beyond the vanilla limit.

Use cases
Casual play
Players who want fewer tedious steps in mining, boating or combat can use the mod's conveniences without changing the core game.
Server tuning
A server owner can set the boat speed coefficient and other behavior to suit the community.
Who it’s for: Players who want small quality-of-life changes on NeoForge 1.21.1, and server owners who want to adjust mining, boats and mob behavior on a shared world.
How it compares
HelperCraft is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 with the same client and server environment, and it is not open source. Potions As They Should Be covers Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1, is client and server, and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so it targets potion behavior rather than mining or boats. Simple Ore Miner is server-side only, runs on Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.3 – 26.3, and is not open source.
