CREATIVE LOOT TABLES
Creative loot tables is a mod that allows you to show some items of your datapack's loot tables in a new creative intentory tab. This items will automatically update when realoading your datapacks with /reload or re entering your world.
For now the mod only works in single player
Usage
To use the mod you need to create a loot table called creative_loot_table in your datapack's namespace loot_table folder that allows you to get all the items you want to show in the creative tab without condition.
Example.
in datapacks\your_datapack\data\your_namespace\loot_table\creative_loot_table.json
you can have something like this, where you add a pool to each item
{
"pools": [
{
"rolls": 1,
"entries": [
{
"type": "minecraft:loot_table",
"value": "minecraft:blocks/dirt"
}
]
},
{
"rolls": 1,
"entries": [
{
"type": "minecraft:item",
"value": "minecraft:entities/cow",
"name": "minecraft:diamond_sword",
"functions": [
{
"function": "minecraft:set_name",
"name": "My cool sword"
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
Referencing in each entry a loot table that gives you the item with no condition or directly defining the item.
Is important that this loot tables is in the root loot_table folder and not in a subfolder like: datapacks\your_datapack\data\your_namespace\loot_table\swords\creative_loot_table.json
