About this Mod

Remember how creepers drop music discs when killed by skeletons? Have you ever thought "Wouldn't it be cool if there was more collectibles you could get by making mobs kill each other?" No? Me neither. This datapack came to me in an incredibly strange dream, so I decided, why not make it a reality?

In this datapack, you can get all 15 billiard balls, along with a cue ball, by forcing a skeleton to kill a zombie. They come in slightly varying rarities, with 1-7 and 9-15 being of Rare rarity (Aqua color, higher chance of dropping), and the 8 and cue balls being of Epic rarity (Magenta/Light Purple color, lower chance of dropping).

Server lagging with ZomBilliard Balls – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if ZomBilliard Balls consumes the most tick time.
