Finally, a way to play Minecraft that your therapist might approve of. Maybe. In an effort to prevent any sort of ethical dilemmas, I've removed most ways a player can directly or indirectly damage mobs. There are still ways to beat the game, albeit morally gray. In order to finish the game, the ethically strict rules have been bent to allow for the defeat of the Ender Dragon.
Additionally, the ability to manually spawn Snow Golems in the Nether has been disabled, as their immediate death would be considered unethical.
General Overview:
This mod prevents the player from easily causing harm to mobs through methods such as:
- Fire Damage: Burning and lava-related damage.
- Lightning: Damage from player-influenced lightning strikes.
- Drowning: Suffocation in water.
- Fall Damage: Damage from significant drops.
- Suffocation and Cramming: Damage from being pushed into walls or too many entities in one space.
- Spikes: Damage from cacti, sweet berry bushes, and stalagmites.
- Explosions and Fireworks: Damage from player-triggered explosions.
- Freezing: Damage from freezing effects.
- Falling Objects: Damage from player-caused falling blocks.
