More Heads

Adds survival-friendly access to mob heads and player heads, using intentional hoe-based drops to avoid farm pollution and preserve vanilla progression.

Expands head collecting by making mob and player heads a deliberate survival reward, not an automatic byproduct.

Why use this data pack/mod?

1. All-in-one solution: Combines mob heads and player heads in one data pack/mod, keeping head collecting consistent.
2. Preserves farms and grinders: Hoe-based drops keep farms and grinders from filling up with unwanted head drops.
3. Vanilla-style items: Heads use fitting note block sounds, clean names, and subtle tooltip styling so they feel like part of the game.
4. Lightweight and passive: Built around loot tables and pack overlays, without ticking functions, command-heavy systems, or extra runtime overhead.
5. Flexible installation: Works as either a world-specific data pack or packaged mod, making it easy to use in singleplayer, servers, vanilla, and modded setups.
