Fruitful
by exoplanetary
Fruitful changes how apples are gathered, farmed and eaten in Minecraft, and adds baked apples and apple pies that give Sustaining.
What it does
Apple farming and gathering are reworked, so apples come from trees and leaves in a different way than in vanilla. Players who eat baked apples or apple pies receive the Sustaining effect, which the mod introduces to encourage eating them. Oak leaves gain a variant that can be placed as carpets and hedges for building.
Fruitful runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.16.5, and the latest file is 2.1.0 from 2023-05-11. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.
