Custom Food Attributes
by Fneifnox
Custom Food Attributes lets server owners set the nutrition, saturation, eating time and always-edible status of each food item separately.
What it does
Each food item can have its own nutrition value, saturation, eating time and an always-edible flag. Every setting is configured on its own, so one food can be changed without touching the others. Changes made in the config take effect after a restart, and players must rejoin the world before the new values apply.
The mod runs on the server, so players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric API and oωo (owo-lib) on Fabric and Quilt. Mod Menu is optional but recommended for opening the configuration screen. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source; its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Per-food nutrition
Nutrition and saturation values can be set for each food item, changing how much hunger a food restores.
Eating time
The time it takes to eat each food can be changed, making some foods quicker or slower to consume.
Always edible
Foods can be marked as always edible, so a player can eat them even when their hunger bar is full.
AppleSkin support
The mod works with AppleSkin, so the changed nutrition values can be read from the in-game overlay.
