Description
Buried Barrels is a simple vanilla+ mod that generates hidden barrels throughout the world. Special maps leading to these treasures can be found on most vanilla structures, making exploration a lot more rewarding.
# Exploration maps will be generated on the following structures: Desert Pyramids, Jungle Temples, End Cities, Strongholds, Villages, Pillager Outposts, Woodland Mansions, Igloos, Abandoned Mineshafts, and a few extra structures akin to those.
# Nine different types of hidden treasures with scaling loot, one for each vanilla structure mentioned above.
# Additional hidden barrels that generate a lantern on top.
# Exploration map generation is compatible out of the box with some structures from YUNG's Better Strongholds, YUNG's Better Mineshafts, YUNG's Extras, Repurposed Structures, and When Dungeons Arise, mainly in structures that are already vanilla variants or replacements (such as YUNG's Strongholds). Further updates will add more compatibility options and cover new structures.
# Completely server-side.
# Specific loot barrels can be disabled on config.
NOTICE: FABRIC versions require CLOTH CONFIG API.
