Spectators Generate Loot

by fennifith

Spectators Generate Loot lets a player in spectator mode open chests that have not yet been generated, so the loot rolls without switching to creative.

What it does

Spectators Generate Loot works around the unable-to-open problem that spectator mode normally causes for chests in unexplored areas. A spectator who opens an ungenerated chest sees the loot appear, instead of a message saying it has not generated yet. The chest is then filled as it would be in survival, so the result can differ from what a survival player would get, particularly with the Luck effect. The mod is server-side only, so it needs to be on the server alone and clients join without it.

Key features

  1. Chest generation in spectator

    Opening an ungenerated chest in spectator mode triggers its loot generation, with no need to switch to creative.

  2. Replaces the not-generated message

    The message saying loot has not generated yet is replaced by the generated contents when a spectator opens the chest.

  3. Survival-style loot rolls

    Loot is rolled as in survival, so Luck effect results may differ from those a survival player gets.
