little home
Little home is a Forge world generation mod that places small, procedurally generated houses across new terrain, each with a small starter farm.
What it does
Houses generate in the world on their own, so a player can find shelter without building it first. Each one comes with a small farm, which gives a new character a place to grow first crops early in the game. Where the houses appear and how often is set by the time and generation options the mod provides.
The houses also give a safe spot to spend the first night, and a player can return to one whenever danger shows up after dark. Locating them uses the vanilla locate command with the id priv. The server needs the mod installed and running on Forge, while clients may leave it out.
The mod is built around simplicity and convenience, aimed at new players and anyone who wants a quick base. It is published for Forge on 1.20.1 only, with a single file, 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, dated 2024-03-10. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source, and an issue tracker is linked for reports.
Key features
Procedurally generated houses
Small houses are placed in the world during generation, so each new map has its own shelters to find.
Built-in starter farm
Every house includes a small farm, giving a player an immediate source of crops near the shelter.
Locate command support
Houses can be found with the locate command using the id priv, so players do not have to search by hand.
Adjustable time and generation
Options control the timing of the houses and farms the mod generates, letting the server tune how common they are.
