Quality+ it's not exactly datapack. It's a project to create a network of smaller datapacks that will
communicate between each and starts to imitate plugins/mods but in vanilla theme.
This datapacks in his basic version (this one) focuses on adding small quality of life functions and fixing
default minecraft bugs such like missing recipes. This datapack adds more than
100+ recipes, fixes more than 20+ small bugs/errors and adds a few nice additions to the game.
The awesome thing about these datapacks (except optimization and network) is a module system!
You can enable/disable almost any module (function). Disabled modules are totally inactive
so there's no chance to generate any lags or bugs. This, basic datapack (core) have installed modules:
• Tree capitator (feller)
• Vein miner
• Better compass
• Blast & smoke furnaces (adds missing recipes from regular furnace)
• Fair & faster recipes (for example 2x logs into 16 sticks, or 2 slabs into full block)
• Nerf mending enchant
• Simple chunk loader (light, no lags)
• Simple sound muffler
• Growing resources
• Spreading forests
• Balanced regeneration system (because default is way too overpowered)
• Armored elytra
• Beehive's info
• Damage indicator (light, no lags)
• Auto path
• Angry pigmans
• Fixed stonecutter & campfire
• Silence tag
• Fancier item particles
• Regular fishing
• Experience storage
• Double shells
• Anti ghast grief protection
Impressing right? Every module is compatible with multiplayer mode and can be turned on/off like on these example:
To do it, you need to summon config book. Just type: /function quality-plus:config
PS: Remember to click "install" button to init everything before you start changing anything!
Short descriptions about every module
Tree capitator - This module adds new mechanic that allow player to cut down entire tree at once!
Use SHIFT button while breaking root to destroy all connected wood logs.
Vein miner - This module allows player to mine all near ores at once. Like previously, use with SHIFT to trigger mechanism.
It is compatible with silk touch and fortune enchantments.
Better compass - This addon fixes compasses by making them more usable. Compasses now show direction & coordinates. Example:
If you wear elytra - this feature will be riched by pitch value. Another example:
Blast & smoke furnaces <== Both of them adds new recipes that fixes minecraft mistakes
Fair & fast recipes
Nerf mending enchant - Many people says that mending is a too powerfull enchantment. This module merges all mending books into unbreaking (II) books.
Simple chunk loader - Chunk loader imitates player status that creates an interesting mechanics. Custom block can force load chunk as long as you want! Farms & mechanism works only on loaded chunks - with this module you can imitate this state 24/7 with no problem.
How to craft it? Drop on floor these items:
• 16x obsidian
• 16x ender pearl
• 32x purpur block
• 1x nether star
Simple sound muffler - This block can muffle every sound in range of 16 meters. It's nice to have especially near redstone mechanisms, on animal farms, etc. To craft this lovely block, drop on floor these items:
• 10x wool (any type)
• 1x note block
Growing resources - This module adds farms that can collect any type of wood or dye. It generates resources every 2 minutes. Check page with images to check how to build this multiblock.
Spreading forests - This module introduces new mechanism. Now every 30 seconds game will try to plant every sapling that was on the ground. This is especially helpful on servers where players common cut down entire forests.
Balanced regeneration system - Replaces natural regeneration with new one. You can't reach 20 points of hunger, it will always stay on 19. From now, food is splited into 2 groups - normal & good meal. Normal food will regenerate only 1HP (0.5 heart). Good meal can restore from 4 to 6 points (2-3 heart). Here's a table with good meals:
PS: Redstone block = 2 points (1 heart),
Golden block = 2 absoption points (1 golden heart)
Diamond block = resistance I effect for 60 seconds
Potion = fire resistance I effect for 60 seconds
Armored elytra - Allows to merge your armor and elytra into one piece. It moves all enchantments and armor points from chestplate into elytra. To do it, drop elytra and any type of chestplate on top of anvil.
Beehive's info - This module add description to every dropped beehive or bee nest. It tells player how many bees are inside and amount of stored honey.
Damage indicator - Shows small number with dealt damage every time when entity gets damaged. It also work when mob is healing. It works for every animal/monster/player and it's multi friendly.
Auto path - This module will follow every player move and occasionally convert blocks in places where player was earlier. This helps to find back way to home. It gonna create path from place A to place B.
Angry pigmans - Zombie pigmans now guard their treasure - quartz - attacking inattentive adventurers who try to take it away from them.
Fixed stonecutter & campfire - Makes campfire burn mobs and stonecutter's saw deal massive damage.
Silence tag - Rename any mob to "Silence me" to trigger this module. Named mob will be silented and protected from despawn.
Fancier item particles - This module adds particles to item hold by player. For example when you select torch - it gonna summon flame & smoke particles. That works only from first person view (default one).
Regular fishing - Modifies random drop table from fishing to be more balanced and realistic. Increases chance to catch tropical fish if player is on warm ocean. That fixes problem with way too overpowered afk farms on servers.
Experience storage - It's a special hopper that can pick up experience orbs and store it. It sucks XP from top and drop it from bottom. To craft it, drop on floor these items:
• 1x hopper
• 3x bucket (empty)
Double shells - Makes shulkers drop 2x shell than just one. That's simple, fast & logic module can help a lot on multiplayer worlds.
Anti ghast grief protection - Decreases ghasts explosion impact to 0. They still do damage to mobs, but no more breaks blocks.
