About this Mod
Game Tweaks
A small server-side/singleplayer mod for Fabric that allows tweaking a few features that don't have game rules.
(Note: Has only been tested in singleplayer so far!)
Features:
- Disables lightning starting a fire where it strikes. Mobs that are hit will still catch on fire.
- Disables nether-portal blocks occasionally spawning zombified piglins.
- Disables endermen being able to pick up blocks.
- All features are optional.
Configuration:
Either edit the config file (game-tweaks.ini) found in the Fabric config folder (requires a restart for the changes to take effect), or (optionally) use Mod Menu to edit the options in game.
My other mods:
- Cleaner Menus (client side)
- Unobtrusive Effects (client side)
- A Minor Convenience (server side)
- Professional Villagers (server side)
