Camp Fires Cook Mobs

Turn Campfires into Mob Cooking Stoves

This mod adds realistic food preparation mechanics to Minecraft. Now when mobs die on campfires, they drop cooked meat instead of raw. This works similarly to how mobs drop roasted meat when dying in lava or regular fire.

The mod author explains their idea: "It always seemed strange to me that the main purpose of a campfire is cooking food, but it doesn't cook mob meat. Visually, campfires have open flames like regular fire, which cooks mobs. Now this injustice is fixed!"

Compatibility Features

The mod works server-side and in single player. To display the fire overlay on screen, you can either install Camp Fires Cook Mobs on the client, or use Soul Fire'd mod on both client and server (Soul Fire'd also adds blue flames for soul campfires).

Settings and Configuration

The mod supports Cloth Config and Mod Menu for parameter settings, but they are not required. If Cloth Config is absent, settings use default values.

Available configuration parameters:

• Standard campfires burn items thrown on them (default: false)
• Soul campfires burn items thrown on them (default: false)
• Standard campfire damage (default: 1.0 - same as vanilla)
• Soul campfire damage (default: 2.0 - same as vanilla)
• Frostwalker protection from standard campfires (default: true)
• Frostwalker protection from soul campfires (default: false)

For modded campfires, damage is never changed. Other configurations are treated as soul campfires if they are in the block tag "camp_fires_cook_mobs:soul_campfires", or as standard campfires otherwise.

Integration with Other Mods

Versions 1.6.4 and above integrate with Soul Fire'd mod for creating blue soul fire.

Versions 1.4.1 and below integrate with On Soul Fire mod for creating blue soul fire.

Technical Details

The mod is intended only for Fabric (also works on Quilt) and will not be ported to Forge. The MIT license allows other developers to freely port the project.
