Server Sided Cigs
by SSMods
Server Sided Cigs adds cigarettes that work on a server without any client-side install, so players join with vanilla clients and can still smoke.
What it does
The mod is server-side only: the server and its players do not need it on their side, and clients need nothing extra to see or use the cigarettes. Cigarettes are built on Polymer, which is a required dependency, and the mod needs Fabric API as well. It is published for Fabric and for 26.2 only, with version 1.0.0 for 26.2 as the latest file, released 2026-08-12.
Dried plants become raw material. Dried Leaf is produced by putting a range of plants into a furnace, smoker, campfire or similar heat source; grass, ferns, bushes, vines, kelp, saplings and most flowers can all be used. A Dried Leaf is then crafted together with paper into a Cigarette. Holding right click next to a flame lights it, and a lit cigarette burns for 7.5 seconds, with a hold of a short duration needed to start a puff. Campfires, torches, candles, lit furnaces and jack o'lanterns all serve as flames.
The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source. The author describes it as a silly mod and notes that it does not endorse smoking in real life.
