Loot Casket
Want to add a touch of magic to Minecraft version 1.12.2? Loot Casket offers players and pack developers an unusual mechanics for storing various types of loot in special containers - Small Caskets.
What the mod can do
Main feature - a new Small Casket item that can contain:
- References to existing loot tables. When activated, the player receives generated content as if from a chest, after which the casket disappears
- Specific pools from loot tables for precise configuration of dropped items
- Specific items recorded in NBT format with full preservation of all characteristics
For convenience, the /lcdumpitem command has been added, which shows NBT data of the item in your main hand (requires operator rights).
Practical applications
Modified game version creators can use the casket for:
- Rewarding players for completing quests with randomized prizes
- Aesthetically designing loot distribution
- Easily attaching treasure containers to mobs through compatible mods
What's planned for the future
Planned improvements include:
- Configuring automatic addition of caskets to mob drops
- Support for mods that don't work directly with NBT tags
Working examples
Get a casket with specific items:
/give @p lootcasket:small_casket 1 0 { "Items":[{id:"minecraft:gold_ingot",Count:1b},{id:"minecraft:iron_ingot",Count:1b}]}
Or a container with the contents of a mineshaft chest:
/give @p lootcasket:small_casket 1 0 { "LootTable": "minecraft:chests/abandoned_mineshaft", "Rarity" : "epic" }
Available NBT parameters:
- LootTable: reference to a loot table in "namespace:path" format
- Pool (optional): specifies a specific pool within the table
- Rolls (optional): number of content generation iterations
- Items: NBT data of items in a list
- Rarity (optional): rarity affecting the name color
The LootTable and Items tags are mutually incompatible.
