About
Training Dummy adds a stationary combat target that players can equip to test weapons and gear, with a damage readout showing damage per hit, a running total, or DPS on screen or in chat. Craft it from an Armor Stand and a Hay Block, place it where needed, and equip its armor, shield, main-hand item, and optional Curios accessories through its inventory. A Name Tag lets the dummy display the actual Minecraft skin of the named account, including slim- and wide-arm models. Lure Bait, crafted from food and Bone Meal, draws nearby mobs to attack the dummy, making it useful for observing mob behavior or recording combat. The dummy can only be broken with a Stick, and breaking it returns its equipped gear. A Scoreboard Dummy tracks the biggest hit it receives and displays a leaderboard, with a local server leaderboard and an optional cross-server leaderboard; its interface also shows the top player's skin. Damage display placement, metric, reset interval, and duration can be configured, along with Lure Bait range and leaderboard settings; the global leaderboard is disabled by default and can be enabled by a server owner.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
What it can do on your computer
- Connects to the internet
- It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. No address written in the code is contacted by the code that runs. See Privacy
- Creates settings files
- The mod keeps its settings in the config folder of your game, where you can change or delete them.
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.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. Both are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
- Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.Read without running it
- Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.Folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.
Privacy
Sends unknown data
Sent to an address built while the game runs.
We found this in its code, read without running it.
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.
How we checked
- Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.The code of both files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
- sessionserver.mojang.comTalks to the Minecraft login service.Nothing about you
- Address built while the game runsThe code builds this address while the game runs: it is not written in the file.Downloads the top ten leaderboard entries.Explained by AI (may be wrong)Explained by an AI from the code. May be wrong.Unknown data
AI
No sign so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds and found none.
We have not read its code history yet.
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.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
