Global Datapack Folder

Global Datapack Folder

A folder whose datapacks load into every world, instead of copying them into each save.

No mod dependency to add, no per world setup. Moonlight makes the folder and reads it on world load.

Getting Started

The folder is moonlight-global-datapacks in your game directory (next to mods and saves). Drop datapacks in it, zipped or as plain folders, and they apply to every world you open, including servers.

Configuration

The folder name is a common config value:

global_datapacks_folder = "moonlight-global-datapacks"

Set it to another name to move the folder, or to an empty string to disable the feature entirely. Changing it needs a world reload.

Note

These packs go through the normal datapack pipeline, so everything works: recipes, loot tables, tags, worldgen, datapack registries. They can be disabled per world with /datapack disable like any other pack.
