Canary

An early warning of poison in the mines.

Canary is a mod that detects dangerous behavior of other mods. This mod is intended to be used by modpack developers to debug issues and blame the problematic mods.

Current problems that Canary detects:

• Registration of new EntityDataSerializers
• Unsafe registration of entity tracked data
• Adding new BlockState properties to vanilla blocks

Currently, if either of these happen, Canary will crash the game intentionally and point directly at the problematic mod.

Fun Fact

This mod is named after the real life practice of using canaries in coal mines to detect poisonous gasses. Like the real life counterpart, if the canary dies (the game crashes), you've got a problem.
