⚙️ Modpack Integration
You have full permission to include this mod in any modpack without obligations!
Configuration Options
- Global Shard Drops
Disable End Shard/Nether Shard drops from all mobs simultaneously - Per-Mob Drop Rates
Configure drop chances for specific mobs (set to 0 to disable)
⚠️ Important Configuration Note:
Drop handling occurs on the backend. Config changes won't override drop rates modified by other methods (KubeJS, CraftTweaker, etc).
⚠️ CRITICAL FOR MODPACK AUTHORS
Prevent NBT Explosion:
If your pack contains any container items (shulker boxes, backpacks, etc), MUST add them to the pouch blacklist. Otherwise players can store these in the pouch, creating recursive NBT data that may corrupt worlds.
How to blacklist items:
- Create a datapack with this structure:
data/bottomlesspouch/tags/items/pouch_prevented_items.json - Add items using this format:
{
"replace": false,
"values": [
"modid:container_item1",
"modid:container_item2",
"minecraft:shulker_box"
]
}
OR you can add tags via KubeJS tags
