Developer API

Core Methods

// Register drops
DropRateAPI.registerDrop(
    EntityType.ZOMBIE,
    75,
    Arrays.asList(Items.DIAMOND, Items.EMERALD),
    1,
    3
);

// Query existing drops
List<DropData> drops = DropRateAPI.getDropData(EntityType.SKELETON);

// Remove specific drops
DropRateAPI.removeDrop(EntityType.CREEPER, Items.GUNPOWDER);

Event Integration

@SubscribeEvent
public void onMobDeath(LivingDeathEvent event) {
    // Access DropRate data
    List<DropData> drops = DropRateAPI.getDropData(event.getEntity().getType());
    
    // Custom drop logic here
}

Compatibility

Note: When using with other loot-modifying mods, load order matters. DropRate should load after core content mods but before other loot modifiers.

Mod	Compatibility	Notes
Apotheosis	Full	Use Apotheosis for drop scaling
Lootr	Partial	Test chest interactions
