Stinky Socks
Stinky Socks adds socks that can be worn, get stinky, and be washed clean again in a washing machine, along with a few related effects for players.
What it does
Socks in the mod can be made wet, which makes them dry-stinky and then wet-stinky again over time. A furnace recipe turns socks wet, and a functional washing machine makes them wet and removes their stinkiness. Each sock type carries its own custom effects, so the item a player wears changes what happens to them.
Peaceful mobs run away from a player wearing the stinky gear, while passive mobs can turn aggressive and attack with higher attack speed. Walking through water or standing in rain gives a player both wet and stinky effects, and a wet item can be thrown into water or rain. The mod is built for fun and gives players a set of socks to wear and use.
Stinky Socks is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.1. Both the server and every player need the mod, because it runs as client and server. Its source code and issue tracker are public.
