Giraffes and koalas
by dooietruus
Giraffes and koalas adds giraffes, koalas and eucalyptus trees to savanna biomes, along with eucalyptus wood, double fence gates, awnings and filter hoppers.
What it does
Giraffes spawn in savanna biomes and breed with acacia leaves, while koalas breed with eucalyptus leaves. Eucalyptus trees appear only occasionally in the savanna, so they stand out among the acacia. The wood they yield can be crafted into planks, stripped wood, doors, trapdoors, fences, gates, boats, hanging signs and regular wooden blocks.
The mod also covers storage and building. Double gates and picket fences come in matching farm-style sets, and awnings take their colours from banners through a loom. Filter hoppers work like a regular hopper but can filter up to five different items, which helps with sorting storage. Filter hoppers require additional redstone to operate.
Giraffes and koalas is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. It is built for NeoForge and has files for 1.20.4, 1.20.6 and 1.21.5. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
