About this Mod

I Don’t Want to Cheat is a mod for players who want to stay honest even in singleplayer.

I personally get tired of grinding for days and spending too much time building, so I end up switching to Creative. This mod helps break that habit. If you somehow switch to Creative mode, a huge explosion happens around you, you die, and you are forced back into Survival mode.

The mod also keeps Open to LAN available, but removes the game mode and cheats options in that menu so it is harder to bypass fair play.

If you want to play Survival without excuses, this mod is made for you.
