In Minecraft 1.16, the Respawn Anchor was added to the game. When the changed anchor was used in overworld, it will explode and damange the blocks around it. I want to simply avoid this block damage. I've tried to set the respawn-anchors region flag to deny for the global region, but it seems to be not doing anything. Therefore, I would like to request an option to disable the anchor explosion damage, just like for the TNT blocks.

Thanks!

respawn anchors flag is working fine for everyone else, so don't really understand what you're getting at here. if this is a bug report you need to follow the proper template (and not delete it all).
