Tropicraft [StationAPI]

by DanyGames2014

Tropicraft [StationAPI] brings a tropical island biome, with its own blocks, items and mobs, to the Minecraft b1.7.3 beta on Fabric and Babric.

What it does

The mod ports the Tropicraft content to StationAPI, so the tropical themes appear as a world-generation addition. Easter Island Heads, structures and entities place tropical scenery on the land, and iguanas, frogs, tropicreepers and tropiskeletons populate it. The author describes this build as a port of the Tropicraft mod based on one exact version, with some additions the author considered a good fit.

The mod uses Glass Config API for its configuration and StationAPI as the base layer. Both are required, so Glass Config API and StationAPI must be installed alongside it on Fabric or Babric. Tropicraft [StationAPI] is published only for b1.7.3. Snapshot builds are published, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. The custom license means the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Tropical mobs

    Iguanas, poisonous frogs, tropicreepers and tropiskeletons spawn in the tropical areas.

  2. Armor and bamboo blocks

    Iguana scale armor and bamboo blocks give the tropical theme building and equipment options.

  3. Sifting mechanic

    A sifting mechanic lets other mods add their own recipes through the API.

  4. Six records

    The mod includes six music records for the tropical setting.

How it compares

Full comparison

Aether on Station API is open source under the MIT License and runs client and server for b1.7.3 on Fabric and Babric, so it differs in theme rather than platform. Tropicraft [Unoffical] targets Fabric and Forge for 1.16.5 – 1.17.1 under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, a different version line entirely. Peanutbutter is open source under the MIT License for b1.7.3 on Fabric and Babric.

Questions

Does Tropicraft [StationAPI] need StationAPI?

Yes. StationAPI and Glass Config API are both required dependencies and must be installed with the mod on Fabric or Babric.

Which game version does Tropicraft [StationAPI] support?

The mod is published only for b1.7.3, so it does not run on the 1.16.5 – 1.17.1 builds of the unofficial Tropicraft port.

Do the server and players both need the mod?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

What the author says

This is a port of the famous Tropicraft mod for StationAPI, it is not based on one exact version and contains some additions that I thought would fit in well. The project is still in development but im happy with its state enough to release it as I consider it to be in a playable state, just lacking some features…
