Spiky Spikes
by Fuzs
Spiky Spikes adds six tiers of spike blocks that damage mobs walking over them, with each tier handling damage, kills, loot and experience differently.
What it does
Each spike tier behaves differently. Wooden spikes slowly damage mobs without finishing them off. Stone spikes damage and kill mobs but drop no loot or experience. Iron spikes kill mobs and drop only their normal loot, with no experience. Golden spikes kill mobs and drop experience but no loot. Diamond spikes deal heavy damage and drop the full loot a player would receive, and they accept most sword enchantments through an anvil. Netherite spikes make up the sixth tier and are strong enough to hurt bosses such as the Wither.
The mod is aimed at mob farms, where the choice of tier controls whether a farm yields loot, experience or neither. Spiky Spikes is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it needs Fabric API on Fabric, Forge Config API Port and Puzzles Lib. Both the server and every player need the mod to run it, and files cover 1.18.2 – 26.3. The code is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
Key features
Six spike tiers
Wooden, stone, iron, golden, diamond and netherite spikes each apply a different combination of damage, kill and drop behavior.
Loot control
Stone and golden spikes suppress loot or experience, which lets a farm produce only the drops its owner wants.
Diamond enchantments
Diamond and netherite spikes can take most sword enchantments applied at an anvil.
Spike rendering
The spikes are drawn as non-cube shapes, so they look distinct from ordinary full blocks.
