Lootr

Generates unique loot for each player that opens a loot container.
Lootr gives every player their own loot from the same structure. When a chest, barrel, shulker box, chest minecart, item frame, decorated pot or patch of suspicious sand or gravel with a loot table is generated, Lootr swaps it for its own version, and each player who opens it gets a fresh roll of that loot table. Nobody can empty a dungeon for the next person. Open 100 of them and you get the Centennial Trophy.

What Lootr converts and how to tell
Only containers placed by world generation with a loot table are converted. A chest you craft and place stays an ordinary chest. On our server conversion is on in every dimension, and no loot table or mod is left out.
- Loot Chest
- Replaces a generated chest or trapped chest. The trapped one still sends a redstone signal when opened.
- Loot Barrel
- Replaces a generated barrel.
- Loot Shulker
- Replaces a generated shulker box.
- Minecart with Loot Chest
- Replaces the chest minecarts in mineshafts.
- Item Frame with Loot
- Replaces an item frame holding an item in a structure. The End ship's Elytra frame is one, so every player can take an Elytra from the same ship.
- Decorated Loot Pot
- Replaces a generated decorated pot.
- Sand and Gravel
- Replace generated suspicious sand and suspicious gravel. Each player brushes out their own find.
A Loot Chest or Loot Barrel you have not opened has gold trim and gives off small gold sparkles. Once you open it, it turns a dull grey for you, while everyone who has not opened it still sees it gold. The sparkles are a client setting, on by default.
How to loot each kind
- Chests, barrels, shulker boxes and minecarts: right-click as usual. What you see inside is yours alone; take it now or leave it for later, it waits for you.
- Item frames: hit the frame to take your copy of the item. The frame stays for the next player, right-click only turns it, and nothing can be put into it.
- Decorated pots: right-click or hit the pot, or shoot it. Your loot drops and the pot stays whole.
- Suspicious sand and gravel: use a brush as in vanilla. The block stays for the next player.
Each player's roll is separate: on our server the loot is randomised per player, so two members opening the same chest get different items from the same table. Loot is also per player and not per team, so teammates each open the chest for themselves.
Breaking a loot container
Hitting a Lootr container without sneaking only shows a warning, because breaking it takes the loot away from everybody who has not opened it yet. Sneak while breaking to break it anyway. A Loot Chest then drops a plain chest, a Loot Barrel a plain barrel and a Loot Shulker a plain shulker box. Nobody's loot drops with it.
Minecarts and item frames work the same way: sneak while attacking to destroy them. On our server Lootr containers have no extra protection from explosions.
Refresh and decay on our server
Lootr can make chosen containers refill after a while (20 minutes by default) or crumble after being opened (5 minutes by default). Both are lists the server fills in, and on ATM10 every one of them is empty. No container refreshes and none decays: you get one roll per container, and it stays in the world for the next player.
The Centennial Trophy and the advancements
Lootr counts how many different containers you have looted, in the statistic "Containers and entities looted". Opening the same chest again adds nothing. Chests, barrels, shulker boxes, minecarts, item frames, pots and brushed sand and gravel all count.
- Delightful Decade
- 10 containers.
- Close Quarters
- 25 containers.
- Half-Century
- 50 containers.
- Centennial
- 100 containers. The reward is one Centennial Trophy.
- Socialised Loot
- One Lootr chest, one barrel and one minecart.
- That Was 90% Gravity
- Brush both Lootr sand and gravel, and loot a Lootr pot.
The trophy has no recipe. It is a decorative block that turns to face you when placed and gives off light level 15. Broken, it drops itself, so it can be moved.
Questions
Somebody already opened this chest. Is it empty for me?
No. Every player gets their own roll of the chest's loot the first time they open it, whoever opened it before.
How do I get the Centennial Trophy?
Loot 100 different Lootr containers. The Centennial advancement gives it once; it has no recipe.
Do loot chests refill on PrivateChunks?
No. On our ATM10 server no Lootr container refreshes or decays.
Can I break a loot chest to move it?
Only while sneaking, and it drops a plain chest. Everybody who had not opened it loses their loot, so leave it in place.
