Coherent Content
by devkxn3
Coherent Content is a NeoForge game mechanics mod that adds fried eggs, octopus tentacles, craftable saddles, horse armor recipes, iron-based arrows and human meat drops to Minecraft 1.21.1.
What it does
Cooking an egg in a smoker produces a fried egg, giving players a new food source. Squids drop octopus tentacles when they die, and those can be cooked in a smoker as well, though eating them raw carries a chance of poison. The mod also changes several crafting recipes: a saddle is built from a leather piece bound with iron, reinforced leather is made by combining one leather piece with eight iron ingots, horse armor is crafted with a smithing template, and arrows take iron nuggets in place of flint.
Upon death, players drop human meat, while other animals drop their usual meats, which adds an eerie twist to survival play. The author describes the mod as a small set of changes that fill some gaps in the mechanics of the base game. It runs on NeoForge only, is published for 1.21.1, and is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Players and servers both need it, since the environment is client and server.
Key features
Fried eggs from the smoker
Eggs cooked in a smoker turn into fried eggs, which serve as an extra food item.
Octopus tentacles from squids
Squids drop tentacles on death, and cooking them in a smoker makes them edible.
Craftable saddles and horse armor
Saddles use iron string and reinforced leather, and horse armor is made from a smithing template.
Iron-based arrow recipe
Arrows take iron nuggets instead of flint, which gives the crafting process a more metallic character.
