Skeleton Ghost Ship
With Skeleton Ghost Ship, ocean biomes gain a ship crewed by skeletons that spawns in warm and cold ocean regions.
What it does
The mod adds a ghost ship that spawns in ocean biomes. Skeletons crew the vessel, and players who search around the ship can find guarded skeletons and loot. The chests use custom loot tables, which makes the mod compatible with the Lootr mod, so loot can stay per-player on servers that run it.
Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server. Installation works on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.3 across eleven release versions, with the latest Fabric and NeoForge files at 1.0.0 for 26.3 and the latest Forge file at 1.0.0 for 1.20.1. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Skeleton-crewed ghost ship
A ghost ship spawns in ocean biomes with skeletons aboard, giving sea exploration a hostile crew.
Warm and cold ocean spawns
The ship generates in both warm and cold ocean biomes, so players can find it across different sea regions.
Guarded loot
Skeletons stand guard around the ship, and the loot they protect rewards players who fight through them.
Custom loot tables
Chests use custom loot tables, which keeps the loot consistent and allows compatibility with Lootr.
