What it does

Breaking a cactus can drop a dragon fruit, and cutting a cactus with a knife yields one reliably. The knife can also be made in a crafting grid to produce dragon fruit. Assorted Kitchen adds a knife of its own, which works with this mod as well. Eating a dragon fruit restores a good amount of hunger, comparable to an apple, and the fruit can be placed in a composter.

The drop chance from breaking cacti is set by the dragonFruit.dropChance option in the assorteddragonfruit-common config file. The default is 0.33, and setting it to 0 turns the drop off entirely while leaving the knife route intact. Worlds that were created with Assorted Cuisine 1.x retain all of their content once this mod is added, yet the two should never be run side by side.

The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and requires Assorted Lib and Fabric API. Its source code, issue tracker and wiki are public.

Questions

Does Assorted Dragon Fruit need Fabric API?

Yes on Fabric. Assorted Lib is required on both loaders, and Fabric API must be installed next to the mod on Fabric.

Does the server need Assorted Dragon Fruit?

Yes. The server and every player need the mod installed.

Can the cactus drop be turned off?

Yes. Setting dragonFruit.dropChance to 0 in the assorteddragonfruit-common config file disables cactus drops, and the knife recipe still works.

What the author says

Adds dragon fruit. Breaking a cactus sometimes drops one, and you can cut one out of a cactus with a knife. It fills you up as much as an apple, and it goes in a composter. These are in the assorteddragonfruit-common config file.
