About this project
What does Explodrop add?
Explodrop: Total Destruction, Zero Loss
In standard Minecraft, explosions are a double-edged sword. While they are great for clearing land or fighting mobs, they come with a frustrating "tax"—a significant percentage of the blocks caught in the blast are simply deleted from existence. Explodrop changes the fundamental physics of the game to ensure that your hard-earned resources are never lost to explosion again.

Key Features
100% Drop Rate: Whether it’s a stray Creeper blast in your storage room or a massive TNT excavation project, every single block destroyed by an explosion will drop as an item.
Vanilla Integration: The mod seamlessly hooks into all vanilla explosion sources, including:
- TNT and TNT Minecarts.
- Creepers (including Charged Creepers).
- Ghast Fireballs.
- Wither Blue Skulls and initial spawn blasts.
- End Crystals.
- Bed/Respawn Anchor explosions in the wrong dimensions
Why Use Explodrop?
1. Stress-Free Base Defense We’ve all had a Creeper sneak up on a decorated wall. With Explodrop, the cleanup is simple. Instead of having to craft new stairs, slabs, or decorative blocks, you can simply walk over the blast site, pick up your materials, and place them back exactly where they belong.
2. Large-Scale Resource Gathering Pair this mod with a wood farm or a stone generator to maximize output. By removing the "random disappear" mechanic, your technical builds become much more predictable and productive.
Technical Note: Explodrop is designed to be lightweight and compatible with most other mods. It modifies the explosion logic globally, so even blocks added by other mods should follow the 100% drop rule when caught in a vanilla-style explosion.
