Super Snowmen

by LostPatrol

Super Snowmen turns the vanilla snow golem into a combat companion that can be upgraded with plugins and special projectiles, and the upgrade screen opens on right-click.

What it does

A snow golem built the vanilla way opens a dedicated upgrade inventory on right-click. The inventory holds core attribute upgrades and a grid of 20 plugin slots. Every plugin slot maps to a single outcome among twenty equally weighted options for the golem's projectile, which lets a plugin replace the snowball with an arrow, a fireball, a potion, TNT, a sonic boom or another vanilla item. Empty slots keep the snowball outcome, and a composition bar shows the real distribution once synergies are resolved.

Damaged golems can be repaired by right-clicking them with a snowball, which restores 10 health. Plugins grant passive defenses and can combine into stronger synergies, and upgrades drop when the golem dies. Attacks from snow golems owned by a player do not harm players or other snow golems, including explosions and harmful potion effects. Settings are saved for each world in serverconfig/super snowmen-server.toml, and that file also controls whether the chosen item gets used up when fired.

The mod needs additional mods to be installed alongside it. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Upgrade inventory

    Right-clicking a built snow golem opens a screen that improves its core attributes and holds the plugins.

  2. Plugin-driven projectiles

    Plugins in the 20 slots replace the snowball with vanilla items such as arrows, fireballs, potions and TNT.

  3. Repairing golems

    A snowball restores 10 health to a damaged golem, and only one snowball is used unless the player is in Creative mode.

  4. Friendly fire protection

    Attacks from a player's snow golems leave players and other snow golems unharmed, including explosions and potion effects.

  5. Armor handling

    Armor toughness is calculated per stack, and a stack of 64 ice in a special slot activates its effect.

Questions

Does Super Snowmen need other mods?

Yes. The mod requires additional mods, so they must be installed next to it on Forge or NeoForge.

Does the server need Super Snowmen?

Yes. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

Can the armor cap be removed?

Vanilla's effective-armor cap still applies, and only another mod used alongside Super Snowmen removes it.
