Magic blocks that harvest crops, keep mobs away, and grant effects.
B at most after 6 months without a release.

Pylons adds utility blocks for managing player access, applying stored potion effects, automating crop harvests, and controlling mob spawns and protection around a base. The Expulsion Pylon can expel other players from its chunk, while a Player Filter can whitelist players, with operators always allowed. The Infusion Pylon applies effects to its user from any distance through activated Potion Filters; filters are charged by extracting effect duration from the player, and cards holding the same effect can be combined to add their durations. The Harvester Pylon gathers crops in a configurable 3-by-3 to 9-by-9 area and sends them to an inventory above, with most crops supported by default and datapack recipes available for incompatible crops. The Interdiction Pylon blocks selected mobs from spawning across a 1-by-1 to 5-by-5 chunk range, while a Lifeless Filter instead blocks all natural spawns across a 25-by-25 chunk range. The Protection Pylon can protect specified blocks and mobs from the owner’s actions within a selected range of 1-by-1 to 5-by-5 chunks.
Written from Modrinth , CurseForge and the GitHub README . How we write it
Does not change the game's code directly.
Adds 5 blocks, 5 items and 31 recipes.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.

Mods that modpacks often add together with Pylons. Share: how many of the modpacks with Pylons also have that mod.
The newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The files for recent versions come first. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks.
In the last 2 years, 1 release needed a quick fix: a new release within 3 days to fix a problem. This counts in the grade, but it is too few to lose points.
