NutritionZ

by xR4YM0ND

Players who want their diet to matter can use NutritionZ, which adds a nutrition system with five nutrients to the game.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Five nutrients are tracked as food is eaten, and each one carries positive effects and attributes along with negative ones. A datapack can replace any of those effects, and the maximum nutrition value and the thresholds are set in the nutritionz.json5 config. Fabric API and Cloth Config API are required dependencies. Client and server need the mod, and it is published for Fabric on 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 1.1.3+1.21.1 for 1.21.1 as the latest file. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Five tracked nutrients

    Each food adds to one or more of five nutrients, which together decide the effects a player receives.

  2. Datapack effect replacement

    Datapacks can swap the positive and negative effects and attributes of each nutrient for other values.

  3. Configurable thresholds

    The maximum nutrition and the threshold levels can be changed in the nutritionz.json5 config file.
