About this project
What does TNT Hopper Protect add?
TNT Hopper Protect
TNT Hopper Protect is a lightweight Minecraft plugin and mod that protects hopper minecarts from TNT explosions while keeping normal TNT block destruction enabled.
✨ Features
- 🛒 Protects hopper minecarts from explosion damage
- 💥 TNT still explodes and destroys regular blocks normally
- 📦 Keeps hopper-minecart collection and transport systems intact
- ⚡ Lightweight and focused
- 🌎 Paper supports all worlds or selected worlds
- 🔧 Simple configuration
- 🧩 Supports Paper, Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge
- 📢 New stable Modrinth releases are automatically announced on the website and Discord
How It Works
TNT Hopper Protect changes only hopper-minecart explosion behavior. When an explosion would damage or destroy a hopper minecart, that destruction is prevented. The explosion is not cancelled, so surrounding blocks are still affected normally.
Paper Configuration
protect-hopper-minecarts: true
enabled-worlds: []
An empty enabled-worlds list enables protection in every world. Add world names to limit protection to selected worlds.
Current release: v4.0 for Minecraft 26.3.
