Mystical Agriculture Community Edition
by sabrepotato
Mystical Agriculture Community Edition adds custom crops, seeds and essence-based recipes to Forge 1.12.2 for players who grow plants in their base.
What it does
The mod extends the crop system with plants defined through JSON files. Each custom plant has a block definition and a positive integer tier, and the recipes for its seeds are generated automatically from the tier 5 inputs. Essence output can be defined in JSON with either a cross recipe or a box recipe, so plant seeds and their essence are set once.
The project continues the original Mystical Agriculture line for 1.12.2, a version the upstream fork no longer supports. It also carries resource crops, armor, tools and other additions. Mace, a companion mod, adds support for custom plants defined through simple JSON, and its default texture for custom plants has to be enabled. Cucumber Library is required and must be installed on the same side as the mod.
The mod is published for Forge only, with a single game version, 1.12.2. The latest file is 1.8.3 for 1.12.2, and the code is released under the MIT License. Client and server need it, so the server and every player install the mod.
Key features
JSON-defined crops
Custom plants are defined in JSON with a block and a positive integer tier, so new crops need no Java code.
Generated seed recipes
Seeds of tier 5 get recipes generated from their input resources, which are set in the same definitions.
Essence output
Essence output is configured in JSON and can use either a cross recipe or a box recipe.
Resource crops and gear
Resource crops, armor and tools are added to the existing Mystical Agriculture content.
