About this Mod

MiscTweaks StationAPI Edition for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3

A mod for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 babric that tweaks random things.

  • You will need ModMenu and GlassConfigAPI to change configs and use this mod. See installation instructions below.
  • Mod works on Multiplayer with GlassConfigAPI version 3.0+ used to sync configs!

List of changes

All changes are default false/vanilla behavior unless otherwise specified

Equipment Changes

  • Allow bows to have durability
    • Sets bow durability to 384 and uses 1 durability for each arrow fired
  • Equalize base armor durability
    • Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, and Boots will all have the same durability
  • Modern armor defense points
    • Lower tiers have less defense and defense does not decrease with durability loss

Explosion/Fire Changes

  • Allow fire to turn grass into dirt when it expires
  • Allow ghast fireballs to insta-kill ghasts
  • Allow defusing TNT with shears (use left-click to defuse)
  • Control drop chance of blocks when destroyed by explosions
  • Disable all explosions
    • Disable TNT explosions breaking blocks
    • Disable creeper explosions breaking blocks
    • Disable ghast explosions breaking blocks
  • Disable ghast explosions causing fire
  • Disable lightning strikes causing fire

Flora Changes

  • Allow collecting ferns with shears
    • BHCreative is required for this as b1.7.3 does not have an item for it
    • Item is non-vanilla and will disappear if BHCreative is removed
  • Allow collecting tall grass with shears
  • Allow collecting dead bushes with shears
  • Allow random chance for dead bushes to drop a stick
    • The percent chance is the same as getting seeds from tall grass (12.5%)
  • Allow random chance for apples to drop from oak leaves
    • The percent chance can be chosen via the config
  • Disable leaf decay for player placed leaves
  • Enable log rotation for oak, spruce, and birch logs
