About this Mod

Blowing up a smorgasbord of mobs with a charged creeper to get 1 diseased, mushy, off-brand zombie head is a disappointment, so this mod lets you change that with a new gamerule!

The maxCreeperHeadDrops gamerule can be used to change the maximum number of mob heads dropped by a charged creeper explosion. The default is still 1.
