Candy Dispenser

A handheld candy dispenser that automatically feeds you candy when hungry, providing healing boosts when you get damaged.

About This Mod

The Candy Dispenser mod adds a smart automatic feeding system to Minecraft. Craft a candy dispenser, load it with candy, and keep it in your hotbar - it will automatically feed you candy when your hunger or saturation drops below configurable thresholds. 

When you take damage, the dispenser enters healing mode and provides extra saturation boosts to help you recover faster.

Perfect for long mining sessions, exploration, or any time you want to focus on gameplay without worrying about hunger management. The dispenser can hold up to 512 pieces of candy and uses NBT data to track its contents.

Getting Started
