[ADL] Always Drop Loot (update)

Always Drop Loot is an unofficial continuation of the original mod for Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge.

Let mobs drop player-dependent loot and XP even when they die from falls, drowning, or other environmental causes. Useful for passive farms and automated systems, with configurable behavior for each world.

The mod provides four gamerules:

loot_drop_mode — controls whether drops that normally require a player kill are allowed.
always_drop_xp — enables XP drops without a player kill. Disable it to restore vanilla XP behavior.
passive_xp_modifier — adjusts XP from non-player kills. For example, 0.5 gives half XP and 2.0 gives double. Player-kill XP is unchanged.
guarantee_equipment_drops — guarantees eligible weapon and armor drops. Disabled by default, respecting the loot mode, mob drops gamerule, and Curse of Vanishing.

Available loot modes:

Mode	Behavior
`ALWAYS_AS_PLAYER`	Allows player-dependent loot from any death.
`NEVER_AS_PLAYER`	Blocks player-dependent loot; other loot remains unaffected.
`VANILLA`	Uses normal vanilla conditions.
`VANILLA_INVERSE`	Allows player-dependent loot only without a player kill.

Default settings:

/gamerule always-drop-loot:loot_drop_mode ALWAYS_AS_PLAYER
/gamerule always-drop-loot:always_drop_xp true
/gamerule always-drop-loot:passive_xp_modifier 1.0
/gamerule always-drop-loot:guarantee_equipment_drops false

Normal item drop chances still apply. To guarantee eligible equipment drops, enable the separate option:

/gamerule always-drop-loot:guarantee_equipment_drops true

Install the file matching your Minecraft version and loader in the mods folder. Fabric also requires Fabric API. Settings are world-specific; changing gamerules requires cheats or operator permissions.
