Iguana Tweaks

This mod was abandoned by the developer and has been revived in an updated version by other authors.

Key Features

The modification introduces numerous changes to Minecraft's fundamental survival mechanics, creating a more challenging and thoughtful gameplay experience.

Weight and Carrying System: Implemented equipment and inventory weight restrictions. Stack sizes for most items and blocks have been significantly reduced, forcing players to approach resource gathering more strategically.

Terrain Features: Different surface types now affect movement speed. Moving across certain blocks becomes considerably more difficult.

Combat Mechanics: When taking damage, the character temporarily loses the ability to move. Heavy armor creates additional burden, slowing movement. All these effects apply equally to both players and mobs.

Crafting Changes: The torch recipe has been made configurable through the configuration file. Some blocks now require more durable tools to mine.

Mod Philosophy

The main concept behind the changes is not about achieving absolute realism, but rather about increasing survival difficulty and encouraging the use of alternative transportation methods like minecarts. The rework of resource mechanics aims to make coal and torches valuable items rather than infinite consumables.

This modification was originally created according to the author's personal preferences but offers a unique experience for players seeking a more harsh and deliberate approach to survival in Minecraft.
