TFC Lunch Box
by Thomasx0
TFC Lunch Box adds two portable food containers to TerraFirmaCraft, one that slows spoilage with a preserve trait and one that cools food with ice capsules.
What it does
The first container is a 3x3 grid of nine slots that applies the Preserved trait, slowing food spoilage by 45 percent. It suits the early game, when players are still building their food supply. The second container adds three special slots beside the nine food slots for ice or universal cooling capsules, applies the Cooled trait, and slows spoilage by 70 percent while ice is present. Ice in those slots melts over time and is managed automatically, which makes this version better suited to long journeys.
The mod runs on the client and on the server, so both sides need it installed. TerraFirmaCraft is required, and GregTech CEu Modern is optional. Changes to the trait configurations take effect only after a game restart. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, both for 1.20.1, and the code is released under the MIT License without being open source.
