Scrambled Mob Drops	If a mob is killed by a player, the mob drops a random item. If the same player kills the same mob, they will always drop the same item (e.g. a cow killed by player x will always drop dirt, while a cow killed by player y will always drop cobblestone).	/
Random Mob Drops	If a mob is killed by a player, the mob drops a random item.	/
Scrambled Block Drops	If a player mines a block, the drops are scrambled on a per player and block basis.	/
Random Block Drops	If a player mines a block, the drops are randomized.	/
Random Mobs on Damage	If a player damages a mob, the mob will be replaced by a random other mob.	/
Scrambled Mobs on Damage	If a player damages a mob, the mob will be replaced by a scrambled other mob.	/
No Crafting Tables	Players cannot use crafting tables.	/
Random Mob Speed	Newly spawned mobs will spawn with a random speed modifier, which can make them slower or faster then they normally would be.	/
Delete Block on Break	If a player breaks a block, a 3x3x3 matrix around that block will also be broken, but no items are dropped.	/

A Note on Randomizers and Scramblers

• Randomizer: A randomizer always selects a random item/block/mob for every player. E.g. if player x first hits a cow, it is replaced by a chicken. If player x hits a second cow it is replaced by a zombie.
• Scrambler: A scrambler will pre-randomize all items/blocks/mobs for each player and then deterministically select the same item/block/mob for each input element. E.g. if player x hits a cow, the cow will always be replaced by a chicken, while if player y hits a cow, the cow will always be replaced by a wither.
