About this Mod
Do you like TNT?? Well you'll Really like this mod! It's pretty challanging by nature, making explosions a common occurance! And you still can make it harder(or easier i don't judge) if you want!
Highly Explosive is a Pretty simple Server-sided (Neo)Forge mod for 1.20+.
Some features include:
Spoilers for the mod!
- Monsters can spawn with TNT on heads (with 20% to spawn), They explode on death and have a few buffs.
- Creepers exploding on death..
- Creepers in the End and Nether*(Nether Off by default)*!
- Creeper Jokeys?
- Enderman bombers holding Creepers!!
- Zombified Piglins if they are a TNT Head will always chase you like the Bomber
Most numbers in the mod can be customised by gamerules!(all start with heSomethingFun)
For example:
- heTntOnUndeadHeads (True/False)
- heTntOnUndeadHeadsChance (0-100), going over or under won't do anything it's a % value
This is just a small passion project and it likely won't be developed much after release, as a Solo Dev I don't have the time for all of that but in any case for any issues, bugs or ideas regarding the mod, message @n1ktwazny on discord ;D
