Unlucky Diamonds
by cqm3ron
Unlucky Diamonds makes every diamond ore drop exactly one diamond, regardless of the Fortune enchantment on the pickaxe.
What it does
The data pack overrides the loot tables for vanilla diamond ore and deepslate diamond ore, removing the extra rolls that Fortune normally adds. Each block then yields a single diamond. The author built it to give players a level playing field after feeling that the default random drops were too unlucky.
The change is a data pack, so it is installed on the server. Players join without installing anything, because only the server needs it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering the 26.1 – 26.3 range, under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.
Key features
Fixed diamond yield
Diamond ore always drops one diamond, so the result no longer depends on random Fortune rolls.
Fortune effect removed for diamonds
The Fortune enchantment has no bonus on diamond ore, while other ores keep their normal behavior.
Single-purpose change
The pack changes only the diamond ore loot tables and adds no other content or commands.
