Just Dandy

Fluffy dandelions are a variant that spawns in plains and other biomes, shown with extra particles. Normal-sized patches are used in most places, while the mod's frequent-patch rule gives fluffy dandelions greater frequency and density in meadows. Dandelion Fields can also be included in the biome list for these thick, frequent patches. Blueprint is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.19.2 – 1.21.1, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.

Fluffy dandelions give off gently bobbing seed particles, more so when it rains. Entities moving through them, including players, projectiles and mobs, raise the particle concentration. Bone meal grows a normal dandelion into the fluffy variant, and bees that pollinate crops can also make dandelions fluffy. Fluffy dandelions are somewhat delicate: only shears collect them as a normal dandelion, and breaking one without shears drops nothing. Particle density and lifespan can be scaled through config multipliers, and the mod credits GLaDOS Edition block texture work by Booleven, who ported the earlier version.
