Periodic Mob Drops

Configure eligible creatures to have a chance to produce item stacks at chosen intervals. Start with no active rules, so installing the mod does not change gameplay until you configure it.

AI usage disclaimer: This mod was developed with AI-agent assistance using this agent workflow. The project owner reviewed the work during development.

Rules are stored in config/periodicmobdrops.cfg:

entity_id ; item_id ; stack_size ; interval_seconds ; chance_percent ; metadata

Metadata is optional and defaults to 0.

minecraft:chicken ; minecraft:feather ; 1 ; 180 ; 75
minecraft:sheep ; minecraft:wool ; 1 ; 180 ; 75 ; 14

The first example gives each loaded chicken a 75% chance to drop one feather every three minutes. The second does the same for red wool from sheep by using metadata 14.

Configuration changes require a restart.
