Rug
If you have ever wished Minecraft gave you more control over its tiny details, Rug is the add-on you have been waiting for. Rug is an extension for gnembon's Carpet Mod, and it takes that already powerful framework and pushes it much further. Instead of a handful of toggles, you get a massive library of rules that reshape crafting, mobs, redstone, and world generation. Whether you run a technical server or just want a friendlier survival experience, Rug hands you the switches.
What Makes Rug Different
Rug is not a standalone mod. It builds directly on top of Carpet, which means you need Carpet installed first. Once both are in place, Rug adds 98 individual settings you can turn on or off. That number matters because it covers an enormous range of gameplay. You can make cobblestone crush into gravel, let villagers always convert, or stop creepers from blowing up your builds. Each rule is independent, so you can fine-tune your world exactly how you like it.
The add-on supports modern Minecraft versions and is built for the Fabric loader, which keeps it lightweight and fast. Because it piggybacks on Carpet's rule system, you manage everything through the same in-game commands you already know. No messy config files, no restarts, just type and play.
Standout Rules You Can Enable
Crafting and Recipes
- craftableNameTags, craftableHorseArmor, and craftableCobwebs let you build items that normally have no recipe.
- easyStickCrafting and easyBoneBlockCrafting simplify common recipes.
- unpackableWool, unpackableQuartz, and unpackableNetherWart break blocks back into materials.
Mobs and Behavior
- noCreeperGriefing, noEndermanGriefing, and noGhastGriefing protect your terrain.
- villagersAlwaysConvert and villagersDropEmeralds change how villages work.
- tameCatsWithCookedFish gives you a new way to befriend cats.
World and Redstone
- waterInNether and netherrackGeneration alter terrain rules.
- redstoneLampTurnOffDelay and longerRepeaters give redstone engineers new timing options.
- zeroTickPlants and silkTouchSpawners open up advanced farming and mob setups.
That is only a small slice. With 98 settings, there is almost certainly a rule for whatever you are trying to build or fix.
How to Install Rug
Getting started is straightforward. First, confirm you are running a compatible Minecraft version with the Fabric loader installed. Next, place the Carpet Mod file into your mods folder, since Rug depends on it. After that, drop the Rug file into the same folder. Launch the game, and the new rules become available through Carpet's command interface.
If you would rather skip the manual steps, the foxygame.net launcher can handle the whole process for you. It installs Rug with a single click and keeps every add-on in your catalog updated automatically, so version compatibility is never something you have to chase down yourself. That convenience is a real time-saver when you run a lot of mods.
When you are ready, you can download Rug from its official GitHub page, where the developer also lists a detailed explanation of every feature. If something breaks, the GitHub issue tracker is the right place to report it.
Why Players Keep Coming Back
Rug shines because it respects your choices. You are never forced into a total overhaul. Instead, you pick the rules that matter to you and leave the rest untouched. A builder might enable silkTouchFarmland and silkTouchPathBlocks to preserve delicate landscaping. A redstone engineer might lean on commandFrame and commandSudo for testing. A server admin might switch on peacefulHunger and strictShulkerShells to balance difficulty.
Because the settings are granular, Rug works for casual players and hardcore technical users alike. The learning curve is gentle, and the payoff is a Minecraft world that finally behaves the way you always wanted.
Final Thoughts
Rug is one of the most flexible Carpet extensions available, and its 98 rules cover nearly every corner of the game. If you want deeper control without heavy performance costs, this add-on delivers. Install Carpet, add Rug, and start experimenting. Once you try a few rules, you will wonder how you ever played without them.
