No Creeper Holes!

Ever dreamed of disabling creeper explosion holes while keeping villager breeding functional? Wanted to prevent ghasts from destroying your bridges but still allow endermen to gather grass for you? Or perhaps aimed to protect your fields from terrain-tampering endermen and stop withers from wrecking your mines, while preserving standard creeper blasts and zombie door destruction?

Your solution is here — meet the perfect mod!

No Creeper Holes! is a modification for Fabric 1.16.x - 1.17.x that introduces eight new game rules: creeperGriefing, creeperFire, ghastGriefing, ghastFire, endermanGriefing, witherGriefing, witherSpawnFire, and witherSkullFire. These enable granular control over the destructive abilities of mobs — creepers, ghasts, endermen, and the wither — even when the general mobGriefing rule is active.

Rules with the "Fire" suffix allow you to determine whether specific explosions will ignite the surrounding area.

Note that the new rules default to Minecraft's standard settings (e.g., creeper explosions still create holes by default), so you'll need to adjust them using the /gamerule command.

The mod requires Fabric API to function.
