Preserve Items When Creepers Explode Near Your Base

Understanding Item Protection

Lenient Creepers Mod automatically prevents items lying on the ground from being destroyed when a creeper explodes nearby. This means dropped tools, resources, and materials will survive the blast and remain available for you to collect.

How It Works

When a creeper detonates:

• Blocks in the area will still be destroyed (if mobGriefing allows it)
• Items already on the ground will NOT disappear
• You can safely retrieve your dropped items after the explosion

This is especially useful when you're mining, building, or fighting near your base and accidentally trigger a creeper.

Checking Your Settings

The mod respects the mobGriefing gamerule by default. If onlyWithMobGriefingGamerule is enabled in the config:

• Items are protected only when mobGriefing is set to false
• When mobGriefing is true, creepers can still destroy items

If this setting is disabled, items are always protected regardless of the gamerule. Check your mod configuration file to see which mode you're using.
