Regenerating Blocks
Regenerating Blocks lets a block come back on its own after a set delay, using a timer stored on the block itself, so a player can break a block and see it return.
What it does
Each block configured as regenerating is restored to a target block once its timer runs out. The timer counts in ticks, with a minimum of 1, and a block broken while regenerating is replaced after the delay, for example a 1200 tick delay. Individual blocks can be flagged one at a time, or many can be flagged together by putting them in a block tag whose path begins with regenerating/, which the mod recognizes.
The mod can be set up in play with commands, which create a correctly configured regenerating block item and give it to a selected player with the right target and timer values. Block and item tooltips show the configured details. Where Jade is installed, it shows extra block information as well.
Installation needs Architectury API and Shadow Config. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, all for 1.20.1, with version 1.3-1.20.1 as the latest file, and the mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, so it is not open source. Public source code and an issue tracker are linked.
