How it works

Pack a snowball: Right-click snow with an empty hand. Roll it: Walk into it to push it, or hit it to kick it away.

Pick it up: Right-click a snowball with an empty hand. It becomes a Rolled Snowball item t

Good to know

Install it on the server and on every client: it adds three items, the Rolled Snowball, the Top Hat and the Scarf. Every action has its own snowy sound, with subtitles. Snowmen are made of vanilla display entities. Without Mycel the game still starts: Snowman stays off and tells you in chat that Mycel is missing.
