About this Mod

Anti Snowballs Mod

Anti Snowballs is a lightweight client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21 that automatically removes snowballs near the player. It's designed to reduce visual clutter and improve client performance by deleting unnecessary snowball entities.

How it Works

The mod checks for snowball entities within a 100-block radius of the player every game tick. If any are found, they are removed client-side using the entity discard method. This happens automatically while the mod is enabled.

Commands

This mod adds a client-side command: /antisnowballs

/antisnowballs toggle – Enables or disables the snowball removal feature.

/antisnowballs count – Shows how many snowballs were deleted in the last tick and in total.

/antisnowballs reset – Resets the total deleted count to zero.

things to note:

This is a client-only mod. Snowballs are still visible to the server and other players.

Snowballs may be counted twice if chunks are reloaded.
