Lawncare [No Leaf Litter]
by NotchArrow
Lawncare changes how often certain natural plants generate in the world, reducing leaf litter and grass while leaving most other vanilla generation as it is.
What it does
The mod lowers the spawn rate of leaf litter, which is the main target, and of grass, ferns and seagrass. Leaf Litter spawns at 25 percent of its normal rate and Grass, Ferns and Seagrass at 50 percent. Pink Petals, Dry Grass, Firefly Bushes, Dead Bushes, Moss Carpet and Sweet Berries follow the same kind of adjustment, and everything else keeps its normal vanilla generation.
Changes apply to newly generated chunks, so existing terrain stays as it is. Settings live in a lawncare.json file, and they can also be edited in a Cloth Config screen reached through Mod Menu. The mod runs on the server only, so players join without installing it. It requires Fabric API, and Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional for the settings screen.
Lawncare is published for Fabric only, with files for 1.20.1 and for the 1.21.5 – 1.21.11 builds. The latest file is 1.0.0+mc1.21.11 for 1.21.11. The code is open source under the MIT License and is available with its source code and issue tracker.
Key features
Reduced leaf litter
Leaf litter generates at 25 percent of its normal rate, which thins out the ground cover across a world.
Adjusted grass and plants
Grass, ferns and seagrass spawn at half their normal rate, while the other listed plants follow their own adjusted rates.
Editable settings
Rates can be changed in the lawncare.json file or in a Cloth Config screen opened through Mod Menu.
Vanilla for everything else
Blocks not on the adjustment list keep their normal vanilla generation, so terrain changes stay limited.
