TNTUtils

A small mod that provides some config options to control how explosions behave. The version for Minecraft 1.21 is still work in progress, not all of the features mentioned below have been implemented yet.

TNTUtils can be installed on a server without the clients requiring it.

Do note that custom explosions from other mods may or may not be affected by this mod.

Current features:

• Change the size of explosions or disable them entirely
• Disable TNT explosions
• Prevent TNT from chain-reacting
• A "/explode" command (called "/explosion" in 1.12.2 and earlier)
• Modify the chance that a destroyed block will drop as an item
  • in 1.21, see also the game rules "mobExplosionDropDecay", "tntExplosionDropDecay" and "blockExplosionDropDecay"
• Prevent explosions from destroying blocks
  • in 1.21, individual blocks can be blacklisted or whitelisted with the block tags #tntutils:explosion_blacklist and #tntutils:explosion_whitelist, respectively. The whitelist takes precedence over the blacklist and over any config option.
  • in 1.12.2 and earlier, individual blocks can be specified in the config file
• Prevent explosions from triggering blocks (e.g. Wind Charge explosion flipping levers)
  • the block tags #tntutils:trigger_blacklist and #tntutils:trigger_whitelist can be used to blacklist or whitelist individual blocks
• Prevent explosions from damaging all or certain entities
  • in 1.21, the entity type tags #tntutils:explosion_blacklist and #tntutils:explosion_whitelist can be used to blacklist or whitelist individual entities
• Prevent explosions from damaging items laying on the ground
  • in 1.21, the item tags #tntutils:explosion_blacklist and #tntutils:explosion_whitelist can be used to blacklist or whitelist individual items
• Change blast resistances of individual blocks (WIP in 1.21)
• Prevent Creepers from destroying blocks ("environmentally friendly creepers") (WIP in 1.21)

The features are fully configurable.
