Stop Endermen Block Manipulation

Endermen can pick up and place blocks unpredictably, which can ruin carefully designed landscapes or builds. This mod gives you direct control over their behavior.

Disable Enderman Block Griefing

Type this command in chat:

`

/gamerule mob_explosion_griefing:enderman_griefing false

`

Confirm with Enter. Endermen will no longer interact with blocks.

What Happens

Endermen can still spawn, move around, and attack players normally. They simply cannot pick up blocks from your world or place blocks they're holding. This prevents the frustrating scenario where Endermen rearrange your terrain or steal blocks from your structures.

Re-enable if Needed

To allow Endermen to manipulate blocks again:

`

/gamerule mob_explosion_griefing:enderman_griefing true

`

This is especially useful for creative builds, terraforming projects, or servers where you want to maintain strict control over world integrity while still allowing normal mob spawning and behavior.
