Block Collision Changes

The Ender Dragon now sends blocks flying into the air when it collides with them, instead of simply destroying them. It can also break more blocks than before, including obsidian, iron bars, and end stone. As a result, the Ender Dragon can occasionally destroy the obsidian pillars in the End during the fight.

Configuration

This mod can be configured in-game through the Mods menu or by editing its configuration file. If you're experiencing performance issues, you can lower the debrisSpawnChance. If flying debris is not moving smoothly, try adjusting the debrisUpdateInterval.

Configuration Options

• debrisUpdateInterval - Controls how often flying debris created by dragon should visually update (update once per ticks) (in vanilla Minecraft this value is always 20).

• debrisSpawnChance - Adjust chance of debris spawn. Lower values can improve performance.

• dragonTransparentFluids - Whether dragon should fly through water and lava or destroy them.

• destroyWaterloggedBlocks - If true, waterlogged blocks become debris and fly away. Ignored if dragonTransparentFluids is false.

• protectBlocksWithNBT - If true, blocks that contain NBT data will be protected.

• loudDestruction - Amplifies the Ender Dragon's block destruction sounds.

More information about configuration can be found here.

Complementary Shaders Compatibility

If debris created by the Ender Dragon appears white when using Complementary Shaders, disable fog in the shader settings:

Shader Pack Settings → Atmosphere → Fog → OFF

Vanilla Bug Fixes

This mod also fixes a vanilla bug that can cause the Ender Dragon to collide with its own fireball, making it explode in midair.

Fireballs can still naturally collide with nearby obsidian towers or with falling block debris created by this mod.

Servers

For server owners, mod version 1.1.2 is recommended.

All mod versions below 2.0.0 should work correctly on servers.

This mod is only required on the server side. Players do not need to install it on their client to join.
