TNT Equivalent

by Eugene

TNT Equivalent changes what Creepers drop, so a player who defeats one can collect TNT from the kill.

FabricForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.13 – 1.20.2

What it does

The mod changes the loot table of Creepers, giving them an extra drop of TNT when they die. It is a server-side addition: a server running it needs the mod, while a player joining that server can leave it out. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, and the 1.13 – 1.20.2 range is covered by 30 release versions, with 1.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file on each loader. The mod is distributed as a data pack too, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Extra Creeper drops

    Creepers can drop TNT on death, adding a source of the item for players who farm or hunt them.

  2. Server-side install

    Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything on their own game.

  3. Data pack option

    The same change is also available as a data pack, for servers that do not run a mod loader.
