GAG (Gadgets Against Grind) is a NeoForge \/ cross-platform (up to 1.20.1) utility mod where the goal of each item is to reduce the amount of “grind” a player will have to face during their day-to-day modded business, while (optimally) keeping a Vanilla feel to every item and not feeling too cheaty compared to using something like commands. Some of things GAG adds include:<\/p>\n
– A way to easily teleport your way out of caves (**Escape Rope**)
\n– **Hearthstones** that can teleport you to your personal spawn point or world spawn, as well as a variant that you can bind to any location!
\n– A **No Soliciting! Sign** to block certain pesky intruders from entering your base.
\n– Different types of **Dynamite** for easier mining and fishing!
\n– A way to tick accelerate blocks, Time-in-a-Bottle style (**Temporal Pouch**, might be reworked in the future)
\n– Multiple ways to stop mobs from spawning near you temporarily, enabling you to mine in peace (**Sacred Salt, Balm and Salve**)
\n– A **Labeling Tool** to rename your items on the go _without consuming tons of experience_
\n – (**NEW!**) With **Pigment Jars**, you can now give your favourite tools custom colored names!<\/p>\n
Most parameters of these items are configurable by pack developers, and I personally recommend changing the recipes and \/ or disable some of the features entirely if you do not deem them a good fit for your pack. The defaults are all done with something close-ish to Vanilla in mind, so your mileage may vary.<\/p>\n
More items will probably be added in the future as I can come up with novel (enough) ideas, or if I like a suggestion submitted to me on GitHub enough \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
