Creative One-Punch Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I turn on one-punch for mobs in Creative Mode?
The mod works automatically once installed—just enter Creative Mode and punch any mob with your bare hand to kill it instantly. No configuration or commands needed.
Why doesn't one-punch work when I'm holding a sword?
This is intentional: when you hold any weapon, the mod lets that weapon's normal damage apply instead of instant-killing. Switch to empty hands if you want the one-punch effect.
Does this work on bosses like the Ender Dragon or Wither?
The mod kills any mob entity with a bare-hand punch in Creative Mode, including bosses, though the Wither and Ender Dragon may have special behavior depending on your Minecraft version.
Can I use one-punch in Survival Mode?
No, the mod only works in Creative Mode. In Survival Mode, punching mobs deals normal damage as usual.
Does this affect mob spawners or mob farms?
The mod doesn't change how spawners work—it only affects mobs you punch directly, so you can still use farms normally or quickly clear them by hand in Creative Mode.
What counts as a 'weapon' that bypasses one-punch?
Any held item that deals damage (swords, axes, pickaxes, etc.) will apply its normal damage instead of instant-killing; only a completely empty hand triggers one-punch.
Does one-punch work on armor stands or other non-mob entities?
The mod targets mobs specifically; armor stands and other non-living entities are not affected by the one-punch mechanic.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
No, the mod is very lightweight—it only adds a simple punch detection in Creative Mode and has no impact on performance.
Does this work with other Creative Mode mods?
The mod should be compatible with most other mods, but if you have multiple mods that modify Creative Mode damage or mob behavior, test them together to confirm they work as expected.
Can I disable one-punch for specific mobs?
The mod doesn't have built-in mob blacklisting, so it affects all mobs equally—if you need selective control, you'd need to use a weapon on mobs you want to spare.
