Description
MoreGameRules
MoreGameRules is a lightweight, server-side Fabric mod that adds extra gamerules to Minecraft, giving you more control over world mechanics, block interactions, and mob behavior.
All gamerules are disabled by default, meaning Minecraft behaves normally until you choose to enable other behavior.

- Install the compatible Fabric API version.
- Download MoreGameRules.
- Place the MoreGameRules JAR in your
modsfolder. - Launch Minecraft and configure your gamerules!
⭐ Features
- Adds many new gamerules for finer control over Minecraft.
- Adds
/mgrcommand to replace/gamerule moregamerules:. - Customize world mechanics, block behavior, and mob interactions independently.
- All gamerules are disabled by default, preserving vanilla behavior.
- Server-side only. Players do not need to install the mod to join a server using MoreGameRules.
- No configuration files required; everything is controlled through Minecraft's
/gamerulecommand. - Gamerules can be changed at any time without restarting the server.
Available Gamerules
All gamerules use the moregamerules: namespace and accept true or false.
Setting a gamerule to true disables the specified mechanic. Setting it to false restores normal vanilla behavior.

Commands
| Gamerule | Description |
|---|---|
disable_mgr_command |
Disables the /mgr command without affecting the gamerules themselves. |
Using the /mgr Command
MoreGameRules includes a server-side /mgr command that provides a shorter way to view and change its gamerules.
Instead of typing:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_elytra_durability true
You can simply use:
/mgr disable_elytra_durability true
You can also check a gamerule's current value:
/mgr disable_elytra_durability
The /mgr command uses the same permission requirements as Minecraft's /gamerule command.
To disable the shortcut:
/mgr disable_mgr_command true
To re-enable it, use the vanilla command:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_mgr_command false
All gamerules are disabled by default, preserving vanilla Minecraft behavior until explicitly enabled.
Configuration
MoreGameRules uses Minecraft's built-in /gamerule command. No external configuration files are needed.
For example, to prevent creepers from destroying blocks:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_creeper_block_damage true
To prevent copper from oxidizing:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_copper_oxidation true
To prevent tamed wolves from teleporting:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_wolf_teleporting true
To restore normal behavior, set the corresponding gamerule to false:
/gamerule moregamerules:disable_wolf_teleporting false
All gamerules are set to false by default. You can enable only the mechanics you want to change.
Gamerule settings are saved with your world and persist across restarts.
Server-Side Support
MoreGameRules is designed to run entirely on the server.
- Works in singleplayer and on dedicated Fabric servers.
- Players can connect using an unmodified vanilla client, so no client-side installation is required.
- Gamerules are managed by server operators or players with the appropriate permissions.
