So I decided to stop looking for Other People to make My datapack and just to make it Myself. I've been wanting to add a few new items such as pufferfish strips You can get by putting a pufferfish in a stonecutter, a zombie arm that's rarely obtained by killing a zombie and lets You have the same attack stats as a zombie, and when it's daytime You can cause fire damage. Mobs, which are Ogres found in forests, stronger and slower than zombies, Small Gremlins, which are magma cubes spawned in Strongholds, Bunnies which hop around doing melee damage and explode on death. New biomes, mainly themed around removed and prerelease biomes. Mob spawning changes, erasing creepers from existence and making skeletons spawn more rarely and not burn in sunlight, and much much more, but I'd want to start with what's easier to figure out.

Yeah just listing every single thing you'd like to do doesn't help us help you
Pick something, start somewhere, ask a specific question about a particular task or implementation when you get stuck. That's gonna enable us to help you way more smoothly

Okay, I'll try to think of the first feature I want.
How does One stop all creepers from spawning with a datapack?
broken rampart
Well, you can either modify every worldgen biome file to remove creepers from their spawner lists (better for performance, but more tedious and causes incompatibility with worldgen packs), or you can run a ticking function as all creepers that teleports them under the bedrock to die

So the first option wouldn't work well with custom biomes then is what You're saying.
broken rampart
It wouldn't work well with other data packs that modify the vanilla biomes, and it also wouldn't affect worldgen packs that add new biomes
rain zodiac
What if I just replace them all with zombies then?
broken rampart
Same answer basically
You can either modify all the biome files, or teleport the creepers under the world and also spawn a zombie in their place

I see now.
I'll try and do some more figuring out Tomorrow, I have to go to Bed now.

I'm back Home from School now.

I don't actually know that much about commands.

This is all on 1.21.1 Optifine BTW.

If you haven't made a data pack before, I suggest starting with our guide
