Tolyan Detector is a convenient tool for checking for so-called "Tolyans" - people who, when installing a modpack from an archive, simply transfer the mods folder instead of completely transferring all the files.
When "Tolyan" loads a world with the installed detectot, the game crashes with a funny sound, forcing "Tolyan" to install the modpack correctly.
To stop the game from crashing, change the "tolya" value from one to zero.
Feel free to add it to your modpack!
