How do I add the Drygmy blacklist to my Dragoncraft world?
Put the data pack in your world's datapacks folder, ideally before you start playing that world. Once it loads, Drygmy farms automatically ignore every mob on the blocked list, and you don't need to set anything else up.
Can I add this data pack to a world I've already been playing?
Yes. Drop it into that world's datapacks folder and reload the world or restart the game so the pack is picked up. Any existing Drygmy farm built around a blocked mob will stop producing items from that mob once the pack is active.
Which mobs can't be farmed with Drygmys anymore?
The blocked list includes vanilla bosses and NPCs: the Ender Dragon, Wither, Villagers, Wandering Traders, Evokers, Vindicators and Pillagers. It also blocks both Goblin Traders, Cataclysm's Ignis, Ender Golem, Harbinger and Leviathan, and Ars Nouveau's Archmage, Enchanter and Wilden Guardians, Stalkers and Hunters. From Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks it blocks the Dead King, Blood Servant, Evil Mage, Priest, Cryomancer, Apothecarist, Pyromancer, Ancient Knight and Archevoker.
My Drygmy farm stopped giving boss drops, is it broken?
Probably not. If the farm was built around a mob on the blocked list, the Drygmys now ignore that mob on purpose and generate nothing from it. Swap in a mob that isn't on the list and the farm will start producing again.
How can I check if a specific mob is blocked?
Set up a normal Drygmy farm using the usual Ars Nouveau rules and place the mob near it. If the Drygmys ignore it and no items show up from that mob, it's blocked. Mobs that aren't on the list will still produce items as normal.
Does this stop all Drygmy farming?
No. It only blocks the specific bosses, traders and special enemies on its list. Drygmy farms using any other mob work exactly the way Ars Nouveau normally handles them.
Do blocked bosses still drop their loot if I kill them myself?
Yes. The pack only stops Drygmys from generating items from these mobs. Fighting and killing bosses like Ignis or the Wither the normal way still gives you their usual rewards, which is how the pack expects you to get them.
Will this hurt or remove villagers and traders I have penned up?
No. Villagers, Wandering Traders and Goblin Traders stay where they are and keep working normally, so you can still trade with them. The only change is that a Drygmy can no longer pull items from them.
Does this need to be on the server, my client, or both for multiplayer?
It's a data pack, so it goes in the world's datapacks folder on whatever is hosting the world, which is the server in multiplayer. Players joining don't need to install anything on their own client.
Will this data pack cause lag or conflict with other mods?
It only tells Drygmys which mobs to skip, so it has no noticeable performance cost. It's designed for the mods in the Dragoncraft pack: Ars Nouveau, Goblin Traders, Cataclysm and Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks.
