This mod adds one item, the Mob Mincer. This cute little guy can be used to mince mobs for their loot over a period of time. It is a mid-game alternative to mob farms to target a certain mob drop.

Usage

Crafting

Crafting recipe

To use the Mob Mincer, simply right-click on a mob with it in your hand. The mincer will attach to the mob and produce drops over time. The mincer works with any mob (even modded ones!), but it must have loot drops.
To remove the mincer, left-click the mincer attached to the mob.
The Mob Mincer has durability and will break after a certain amount of minces.
You can also use a dispenser to attach a Mob Mincer!

Enchantments

Enchant the Mob Mincer with an enchantment table or anvil

Unbreaking - Increases the chance to ignore durability damage
Silk Touch - Allows for player drops
Looting - Increases the amount of drops
~~Mending - Repairs the Mob Mincer with XP~~ Planned
~~Soulspeed - Increases the speed of mincing~~ Planned

Attachments

Shift + right-click the Mob Mincer with the attachment in your hand to attach it. If the mincer breaks it will drop any attachments.

Name	Item	Description
Storage	Chest	Stores the drops in the mincer instead of dropping them on the ground. Right click to open.
Pacifier	Chorus Fruit	Disables the mob's AI.
Feeder	Enchanted Golden Apple	Feeds the mob to heal it after mincing. Percentage healed can be configured.
Spreader	Sculk Catalyst	Attaches to another mob if the minced mob dies.

Configuration

baseDurability - The base durability of the Mob Mincer. Default: 100
maxMinceTick - The amount of ticks that pass between minces. Soulspeed scales this down. Default: 500
unbreakingBound - The bound used for the RNG when calculating unbreaking. Chance to ignore durability: (1 / bound) * unbreakingLevel. Default: 6
mobDamagePercent - The percentage (0 - 1.0) of health the mob takes when minced. Default: 0.1
feederHealPercent - The percentage (0 - 1.0) of damage healed from the feeder attachment. Default: 1
coloredMobs - Whether mobs should be colored based on their current health. Default: true
allowDispensing - Whether the Mob Mincer can be attached from a dispenser. Default: true
allowKillDrop - Whether the mob should still drop loot when it dies after it has been minced at least once. Default: false
dropChance - The chance (0 - 1.0) that dropping loot is not skipped. Default: 1

Disclaimer

The Mob Mincer can be used on any mob that has a loot table, but some mobs have special conditions (eg. slimes only dropping slime balls when they are the smallest size). This will be fixed in a later release along with more drop customization.
Just like with killing a mob, not every mince will produce a drop, though you can improve this with looting. Without looting, you are limited to one drop per mince.
If you cannot attach a mob mincer to a mob that drops loot, try enchanting it with Silk touch to allow for player drops.
Certain mods may make this too overpowered. Future configuration options will allow for more customization.
