🔥 Looty – Advanced Chest & Loot Respawn System 🎉   

🔥 Looty is the ultimate mod for chest-based progression. Automatically despawn and respawn containers with randomized loot that scales with exploration — perfect for RPG servers, survival experiences, or hardcore zombie apocalypse, adventure maps.                                                                                           

Chests Despawn & Respawn with Loot:

- Mark any container as a Looty Chest using "Golden hoe+RightClick" (admin-only).
- Looty containers despawn shortly after being looted, and respawn later with randomized loot.
- Respawn time is randomly selected from a timer pool — now fully customizable by server owners.
- Player-placed containers are never affected.
- Create custom events with an immersive looting experience.
- Build points of interest and incentives for players to explore your world.
- Customize your very own loot tables to use in-game.

Alternate locations where Specified Looty Chests can Respawn:
- Link to a chest via "Shift+LeftClick/Golden hoe"
- Shift+RightClick/Golden hoe to select coordinates for alternative spawn locations
- /looty addspawns to add all selected alternative spawn locations
- Create dynamic looting in your world with specific chests spawning in alternative locations (on roofs, in         basements, etc)
- Delete alternative spawn locations by destroying the alternative spawn marker (red wool block visable to admins only) 
- Unlink to chests via /looty unlink (removes visual markers)
- Linking to a chest will refresh the markers visually

Build your own Custom Respawn Timers:
- Define your own custom list of respawn delays in looty-common.toml or in the GUI.
- Leave the list blank to use the mod’s built-in randomized timers (15–60 minutes).
- Each time a chest respawns, one delay is picked at random for unpredictability and balance.

Looty Container's are Indestructible:
- Once a container is marked as a Looty chest, players cannot break it.
- Only operators (admins) can remove or destroy Looty containers.
- This ensures that loot POI's are protected from griefing and abuse.


Looty Ore's enable you to respawn valuable Minerals:
- RightClick+GoldenHoe on any vanilla or modded ore to mark it
- Customize mineral specific respawn timers
- Custom respawn animations
- Create must-see POI's and PvP incentives
- Automation modpack compatible

Loot Rarity is determined by the chest’s distance from world spawn:

⚪ COMMON: Close to spawn
🟢 UNCOMMON: A bit further out
🔴 RARE: Deep exploration zones
🟡 LEGENDARY: Extreme distances 

💡 The further you travel, the better the loot!

Use GUI or customizable via distance_config.json — tweak each rarity’s spawn radius for full control.

Loot Rarity is determined by the chest’s radius to group:
- Assign groups via /looty addgroup name radius *rarity/customloottable*
- Delete groups via /looty del or by breaking the admin only sign marking the group in-game
- Groups utilize radius to override looty distance based loot logic, any chests within radius of a group will use the groups custom loot table
- Create custom POI's with Group Based Rarity

Custom GUI:
- /looty gui
- Customize all looty settings in-game
- Add new rarity/loottables
- Edit loot tables
- Admin control
- Hotkey to open GUI via "L" button
- Refresh Configs in-gam via the GUI (no server restarts needed!)
- Define loot drops using looty_config.json or via the GUI
