⭐ BetterExplosives ⭐ – Custom TNTs, Creeper Eggs ✅ Explosive Abilities ✅ 18 Default Explosives ✅ -----

Make unlimited custom explosives that are unique, or as seen on popular servers.

BetterExplosives enhances Minecraft by introducing unique TNT types and Creeper eggs, each with special abilities. From silent explosions to tactical spawner raids, this plugin gives you full control over how destruction works on your server.

Not only does the plugin come with a wide selection of pre-made TNTs and Creepers, but you can also configure your own. Each TNT can have one or multiple abilities combined to create powerful custom effects.

There are 11 custom creeper eggs and 7 custom tnts.

NOTE: This plugin requires SilkSpawners for the Lucky TNT and it requires ProtocolLib for the Silent TNT on servers 1.14 and below. Make sure you use the latest versions of these.

How to Configure a Custom TNT/Custom Creeper Egg
Inside the config.yml, you can define TNT types under custom_tnts or custom_creeper_eggs. Each TNT has:

item_name → The display name of the TNT item.
item_lore → The description shown when hovering over the item.
abilities → A list of abilities this TNT will have.
explosion_power → The strength of the explosion (similar to default TNT = 4.0).
Optional extra settings depending on the abilities (like offsets, repetitions, drop chances, etc.).

Example:

Code (Text):

my_custom_tnt:
enabled: true
item_name: "&6My Custom TNT"
item_lore:
- "&7&oThis TNT has multiple powers!"
abilities:
- SILENT_EXPLOSION
- LUCKY
explosion_power: 5.0
lucky_spawner_drop_chance: 50.0

This example creates a TNT that explodes silently and has a 50% chance to drop a spawner.
