About Gadgets Against Grind

From Modrinth

A Minecraft mod that adds various different utility items and blocks... against the grind!

GAG (Gadgets Against Grind) is a NeoForge / cross-platform (up to 1.20.1) utility mod where the goal of each item is to reduce the amount of "grind" a player will have to face during their day-to-day modded business, while (optimally) keeping a Vanilla feel to every item and not feeling too cheaty compared to using something like commands. Some of things GAG adds include:

  • A way to easily teleport your way out of caves (Escape Rope)
  • Hearthstones that can teleport you to your personal spawn point or world spawn, as well as a variant that you can bind to any location!
  • A No Soliciting! Sign to block certain pesky intruders from entering your base.
  • Different types of Dynamite for easier mining and fishing!
  • A way to tick accelerate blocks, Time-in-a-Bottle style (Temporal Pouch, might be reworked in the future)
  • Multiple ways to stop mobs from spawning near you temporarily, enabling you to mine in peace (Sacred Salt, Balm and Salve)
  • A Labeling Tool to rename your items on the go _without consuming tons of experience_
  • (NEW!) With Pigment Jars, you can now give your favourite tools custom colored names!

Most parameters of these items are configurable by pack developers, and I personally recommend changing the recipes and / or disable some of the features entirely if you do not deem them a good fit for your pack. The defaults are all done with something close-ish to Vanilla in mind, so your mileage may vary.

More items will probably be added in the future as I can come up with novel (enough) ideas, or if I like a suggestion submitted to me on GitHub enough :P
