Pickle Tweaks
by BlakeBr0
Pickle Tweaks is a Forge and NeoForge utility mod that gives tools, weapons and crops a set of extra behaviors, from crafting-grid repair to area effects.
What it does
Tools and weapons can be repaired on the crafting grid using repair materials, as with an anvil. Crops can be harvested and replanted with a right click on a grown plant. Tool tooltips list mining speed, mining level and the valid ammunition for bows, and a Harvestability tooltip appears for blocks when HWYLA or Jade is installed.
Flint and emerald tools are added, along with a combined axe, pickaxe and shovel. Several tools can harvest plant material blocks and replant crops over an area, and the same area effect works on a weapon. Each feature can be switched off through the config file, so a server can keep only the parts it wants.
The mod requires Cucumber Library on the same loader. Pickle Tweaks runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License as open source, and files are published for Forge and NeoForge across 21 release versions, 1.7.10 – 26.1.2, with 8.0.6 for 1.20.1 as the latest Forge file.
