Secure Explosions
Secure Explosions gives you fine‑grained control over which explosions can destroy blocks or damage entities. Instead of a global on/off switch, you define rules based on what caused the explosion – for example, a creeper, TNT, or a fireball.
What it does
Prevents specific explosions from destroying blocks and/or hurting entities
Clears the explosion’s affected block list, entity list, or both
Works with any explosion source that has a direct source entity (Creeper, TNT, Ghast fireball, etc.)
Also handles explosions without a direct source (e.g., commands) with a separate option
Why you might want it
Stop creepers from wrecking your builds – let them deal damage to players but keep terrain intact
Protect mob farms – TNT minecarts no longer kill your precious loot carriers
Create custom game modes – only certain entities can destroy blocks
Fix griefing issues – on servers, prevent specific explosion types from ruining structures
Default behavior
Default ensures that explosions no longer destroy terrain (blocks are removed from the destruction list), but they still damage and kill mobs/players – a common "grief protection" use case.
How it works (critical info)
The mod doesn't disable explosions – it only removes blocks and entities from the explosion’s “to‑destroy” list.
You control everything through configuration files (.toml). Rules are based on regular expressions.
