Creeper No Break Blocks Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to do anything after installing this mod?
No, the mod works immediately after installation with no configuration needed. Creepers will stop breaking blocks right away in both single-player and multiplayer worlds.
Will creepers still hurt me?
Yes, creeper explosions still deal full damage to players and mobs. Only block destruction is prevented, so you still need to be careful around them in combat.
Can I use this on my multiplayer server?
Yes, this mod is server-side only, meaning only the server needs it installed. Players can join with vanilla clients and will see the same behavior.
Does this mod affect other explosions like TNT or beds?
No, this mod only affects creeper explosions. TNT, beds, and other explosion sources will still break blocks normally.
Will this lag my game?
No, the mod is lightweight and has minimal performance impact since it only modifies creeper explosion behavior.
Can I still farm creepers for gunpowder?
Yes, creepers still explode and drop gunpowder normally. The only difference is that blocks around them won't be destroyed.
Does this disable creeper explosions entirely?
No, creepers still explode with full force and damage. The explosion just doesn't destroy blocks, so you'll see the explosion effect and take damage but your terrain stays intact.
Will this work with other mods?
Yes, this mod is compatible with most other mods since it only changes creeper block-breaking behavior and doesn't conflict with standard modding systems.
What if I want to turn this off for certain areas?
This mod doesn't have per-region settings, so it affects all creepers in your world equally. You would need to remove the mod to re-enable block destruction.
Does mobGriefing gamerule affect this mod?
No, this mod works independently of the mobGriefing setting, so you can keep mobGriefing on while still preventing creeper block damage.
