Randomization

Randomness in Every Block

The Randomization mod offers a radically new approach to resource gathering in Minecraft, completely changing the item drop system when blocks are broken. Instead of the usual drops, every block can yield completely unexpected items - anything available in the game except for the blacklisted ones.

This first version of the mod creates true chaos: every breakable block has a chance to produce absolutely any item from the game. To maintain gameplay, wood remains unchanged - this allows for obtaining basic tools at the beginning of the game.

Application Areas

The mod works great for various challenge modes:

• Skyblock modes become a true roulette
• Custom survivals with unpredictable resource economy
• UHC challenges with elements of randomness
• Adding unexpected twists to standard gameplay

Compatibility and Extension

The mod is compatible with most other modifications, though some elements may interact unusually due to the altered item collection mechanics.

Developers of other mods can exclude certain items or entire resource domains from the randomization system. To do this, simply send an IMC message:

(in initialization method)

java //Excludes all vanilla items from the system FMLInterModComms.sendMessage("Randomod", "blacklist", "minecraft"); //Excludes stone and its variations FMLInterModComms.sendMessage("Randomod", "blacklist", new ItemStack(Blocks.STONE));
