DatapacksJava
TNT Damage Booster
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

TNT damage depends on the distance to the explosion:

|---|---|---|
| 0-1 block | 65 HP | 130 HP |
| 1-2 blocks | 55 HP | 110 HP |
| 2-3 blocks | 45 HP | 90 HP |
| 3-4 blocks | 35 HP | 70 HP |
| 4-5 blocks | 25 HP | 50 HP |
| 5-6 blocks | 18 HP | 36 HP |
