Random DropZ
by Malythist
Random DropZ makes breakable blocks drop a random multiple of their usual yield, with the amount set by a range that can be changed in game.
What it does
When a player breaks a block, the drop count is picked at random inside a configurable range. The starting range runs from 1 to 100, so a single break can yield anywhere from one item up to a hundred. The minimum and maximum can be changed with the randomdrops set min and randomdrops set max commands, and the effect is switched on with randomdrops start and off with randomdrops stop.
The mod is built for the Minigame category and draws on the randomized-drop idea shown in a video series by Inspired Dream. Because it runs on client and server, both the server and every player need it. Quilt Loader 0.19.1 or newer and Quilted Fabric API 7.0.2 are required. Files cover Minecraft 1.20 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.4+1.21 as the latest Quilt build, released 2025-12-10.
Key features
Random drop multiplier
Breaking a block yields a random number of its drops, chosen inside the current minimum and maximum.
Adjustable range
The minimum and maximum values are set with commands and start at 1 and 100.
Start and stop commands
A single command turns the randomized drops on and another turns them off again.
Default-off behavior
The effect is turned off by default, so other worlds keep their normal drops until the command is used.

The mod is turned off by default so that you can play other worlds without changes. Type command /randomdrops start to enable mod. If you want to disable it use command /randomdrops stop. The initial range of values for the number of drops is from 1 to 100. You can change min and max values by using commands…
