A small, mostly personal, mod with useful utilities including:

Mini Coal & Charcoal

Coal split 8 ways, smelts 1 item only, useful for saving fuel. The crafting recipe for minicoal: Use a crafting grid to split coal into 8 chunks, they can then form a 3 by 3 ring in a crafting grid to turn them back into coal.

Scythes

A sharpened hoe, right-clicking a fully grown crop will harvest a certain amount of connected fully grown crops. Wooden scythes harvest 5 connected crops, 8 for stone, 10 for copper and golden scythes, 16 for iron, 20 for diamond, and 40 for netherite scythes. An image showing wooden to diamond scythes on the left and the crafting recipe for scythes on the right: top row is filled with the tool material and the bottom left and centre slots are filled with sticks.

if I can figure out how, I'll try add a gif later of it working

Crafting Pad

A portable crafting table, uses up durability to craft items but luckily can be enchanted with unbreaking and mending. The crafting recipe for the crafting pad: place a crafter block in the centre of a crafting table, place iron ingots to the left and right of the crafter and finally fill the top and bottom rows with iron nuggets to craft a crafting pad.

Faster leaf decay

When the hotchpotch:fast_leaf_decay game-rule is enabled, leaf blocks will decay more quickly.

Creeper Explosion Delay

Change hotchpotch:creeper_explosion_delay to configure how quickly creepers explode.

By default it is the same a vanilla's delay (30 ticks, 1.5 seconds) but can be as short (1/20th of a second) or as long as you'd like.
