### What is Heavier Core?
\nHeavier Core is a very simple data pack that makes one change: heavy cores fall now.
\nJust like other blocks like sand, gravel, and anvils, the heavy core will now fall when not supported by a block.<\/p>\n
### What does that mean?
\nLike an anvil, a falling heavy core will damage entities below, but unlike an anvil, the heavy core will launch itself back up with a wind burst.<\/p>\n
### Warning: could not locate heavy core!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
this warning appears when the datapack fails to find the heavy core that you placed. It means that the core will not behave like a falling block. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable due to the limitations of data packs.<\/p>\n
### Why not just make a mod?<\/p>\n 1. I’m not confident in my mod development skills yet. I know how to develop datapacks much better. _Images coming soon_<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Heavy cores fall now…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":80300,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"heavier-core","_minecraft_project_id":"ZyqmYe9M","_minecraft_author":"slime89","_minecraft_license":"MIT","_minecraft_downloads":75,"_minecraft_follows":3,"_minecraft_client_side":"optional","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"heavier-core.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":2371,"_minecraft_version_count":1,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T22:49:51.814173Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2025-04-03T04:38:23.598742Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2025-04-02T03:20:06.207334Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/heavier-core","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":80300,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-04T15:06:50+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"5a81f0b0617443d055ffa3fc020b8a10","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[43,84,89,866,123],"mod_loader":[86],"minecraft_version":[62,37,73,74,38,78],"class_list":["post-80299","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-cursed","mod_category-datapack","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-minigame","mod_category-technology","mod_loader-datapack","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5"],"yoast_head":"\nThere are multiple reasons behind this decision<\/summary>\n
\n2. Multi version support. making and maintaining a datapack available for multiple versions is much easier than doing the same with a mod.
\n3. No dependencies: No other mods or mod loaders are required for this project to work. Since its a datapack, the client doesnt even need to install it!<\/p>\n<\/details>\n
