What it does

The mod fixes vanilla annoyances, finishes features that Beta left unfinished, and adds new content shaped by the author's own design. Its feature list is documented on the project wiki. It is meant to be played standalone, though it can run alongside other mods when a compatibility issue does not arise. Environment is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds target b1.7.3 only, for Fabric and Babric, and snapshot builds are published.

Key features

  1. Vanilla fixes

    Known annoyances of the original Beta game are corrected, so the base experience plays more smoothly.

  2. Unfinished features completed

    Parts of Beta that were left incomplete are finished within the mod's own design.

  3. New content

    Additional items and mechanics are introduced, documented on the project wiki.

No per-version build data
Modrinth lists game versions for this project (b1.7.3), but the source data has no build per game version and loader, so the compatibility grid is not shown.
