Iron Carrots
by FluffyMoment
Iron Carrots lets carrots be crafted into higher tiers, such as the Iron Carrot, the Diamond Carrot and the Netherite Carrot, each giving more hunger and saturation.
What it does
Carrots come in several tiers, and each tier restores more hunger and saturation than the one before. Crafting a higher tier requires a crafting table and the matching material, so the upgrade path follows the player's progress. Tiers such as Lapis Carrot and Redstone Carrot appear for 1.17 and later, while Diamond Carrot and Netherite Carrot are available for 1.16 and later.
Iron Core is required, and Fabric API is required on Fabric. Both must be installed next to Iron Carrots. Iron Carrots runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 21 release versions, 1.12.2 – 1.21.11, and the code is covered by All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Tiered carrots
Several carrot tiers, from Iron Carrot up to Emerald and Netherite Carrot, each with more hunger and saturation.
Crafting by material
Each higher tier is made at a crafting table from its corresponding material, so tiers appear in order.
Customizable recipes
A config file lets server owners disable or enable individual recipes, provided through Iron Core.
Version-specific tiers
Some tiers exist only from certain versions on, such as the Lapis and Copper Carrot lines from 1.17 onward.
