Silence Mob!
by Mrbysco
Silence Mob! lets a poisonous potato silence a mob when fed, using a silencemob:silence item tag on Fabric and NeoForge.
What it does
Mobs that can be fed a Poisonous Potato are silenced by the mod, and the default item tag includes that potato. The effect applies the vanilla silent tag on the server, so players connecting without the mod see the same silence. Only the server must run it; players may leave it out. Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric, and Forge Config API Port on NeoForge. Builds cover 26.1.2 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Feeding silences mobs
Feeding a Poisonous Potato to a mob applies silence, so the mob stops making sounds.
Configurable item tag
The silencemob:silence item tag decides which items can silence mobs, and it contains the Poisonous Potato by default.
Server-side silence
The vanilla silent tag is set on the server, so players need no client mod to hear the effect.
