Explosive Cows

Explosive Cows is a Minecraft Fabric mod that lets you set cows on fire… or make them explode! You can toggle world destruction caused by cows with an in-game command, and the settings are saved in a JSON config file.


Features

  • Toggle worldDestruction mode for explosive cows using a command.
  • Persistent configuration stored in config/explosivecows.json.
  • Server-side only (no client-side installation required).
  • Easy to extend for additional cow behaviors.

Commands

/explosivecows worldDestruction <true|false>

Enable or disable destructive explosions caused by cows.

Example:

/explosivecows worldDestruction true

Feedback is shown in chat and logged in the server console.


Configuration

The mod stores its settings in a JSON config file:

config/explosivecows.json

Example content:

{
  "worldDestruction": true
}
  • worldDestruction: true or false — controls whether cows cause world destruction.

Changes made via command are saved automatically to the config file.


Installation

  1. Install Fabric Loader for your Minecraft version.
  2. Install Fabric API.
  3. Place explosivecows-[version].jar in the mods folder.
  4. Start the server or singleplayer world.
