Random Block Events
by Gregothey
Random Block Events is a Fabric minigame in which breaking a block triggers a random event chosen by a spin wheel.
What it does
Each time a player breaks a block, a spin wheel picks the outcome. Roughly one break in five does nothing, and the other four bring a random event that makes mining harder or stranger. The mod is built around that chaos, so each run of the game can feel different.
The mod needs Fabric API and Pehkui on Fabric. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Five release files exist, covering 1.20.1 – 1.20.5, and the license is All rights reserved.
Key features
Spin wheel on block break
Breaking a block opens a spin wheel that selects which random event happens next.
Quiet breaks
About one break in five produces no event, so some mining proceeds as normal.
Chaotic mining
The other breaks trigger events that change how the player mines, adding unpredictability to each session.

What the author says
This mod upon breaking a block will spin a wheel to decide on an event. With a 20% chance of nothing happening the 80% will cause chaos trying to mine. Me personally i wouldnt be using this when speedrunning... thats just me though.
