Seed Protect

Seed Protect stops farmland trampling by players and mobs, so your crops never get uprooted accidentally. Install and forget — no commands, no items, no configuration.

📦 Installation

1. Make sure you have the correct mod loader installed: Fabric, Forge, or NeoForge.
2. Place the seedprotect-<version>.jar file into the mods folder.
   • For single‑player or LAN games, put it in your client's .minecraft/mods folder.
   • For dedicated servers, install on the server only; clients do not need the mod.
3. Start the game or server. The mod activates automatically — no further steps.

✨ Features

• Trampling protection — farmland never reverts to dirt when a player or mob walks or falls on it, so your crops stay rooted.
• Jump‑safe crops — no more losing newly planted seeds because you accidentally jumped nearby.
• Mob‑proof fields — animals, villagers, zombies, and other creatures can wander through your farmland without uprooting anything.
• Works instantly — no items, commands, or config files needed. Install and you're done.
• Fall damage untouched — jumping on farmland still hurts as in vanilla; only the dirt conversion is blocked.
• Server‑friendly — for dedicated servers, only the server needs the mod; clients can join without it. The Fabric variant uses a common mixin that works on both sides seamlessly.
• Startup greeting — prints a mod info card in the log on launch, crediting the author and contributor.

Even after a heavy landing, the wheat survives.

🧩 Compatibility

Dependencies: None. No other mods are required.
Known incompatibilities: None. Works alongside any mod that doesn't drastically alter farmland mechanics.

❓ FAQ

Does this need to be installed on the server?
Yes. On dedicated servers, only the server needs Seed Protect; clients can join without it. For single‑player, place it in your client mods folder — the integrated server runs there.

Does this prevent fall damage?
No. Only the farmland‑to‑dirt conversion is stopped. Entities still take full fall damage when landing on farmland.

Will it break my existing farms?
No. Existing farmland and crops remain unchanged. The mod simply prevents new trampling.

Is this compatible with mods that add new crops?
Yes, as long as those crops use vanilla farmland. The trample event / mixin is cancelled globally.
