WorkersTFC
by ckeeze
WorkersTFC is a Forge compatibility mod that connects Villager Recruits and Villager Workers with TerraFirmaCraft, so recruited workers follow TFC economy and food rules.
What it does
Recruits and workers in this mod use Coin, a TerraFirmaCraft currency made from precious metals, in place of vanilla emeralds. Recruits can eat TerraFirmaCraft food, ride TerraFirmaCraft horses and wear TerraFirmaCraft gear, and their work blocks are craftable early in the copper age from TerraFirmaCraft materials. Villagers can be obtained by curing zombie villagers with a TFC-style weakness potion. Cured villagers lose their job, while vanilla trades stay available.
The mod adds nine TerraFirmaCraft villager professions aimed at food supply and trade. Miners place TFC torches, support beams and pick up deposits. Lumberjacks replant TFC saplings. Farmers till TFC soil, consider climate when planting and replenish nutrients. Animal farmers manage TFC animals, and fishermen fish both salt and fresh water for TFC fish loot. A full moon event lets players gather zombie villagers as starting workers.
Installation needs TerraFirmaCraft, Villager Recruits and Villager Workers. The mod runs on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 – 1.20.5 and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, so it is not open source. The source code and issue tracker are public. The project is still in early development, so bugs and instability should be expected.
Key features
Coin as worker currency
Recruits and workers trade in TerraFirmaCraft Coin instead of emeralds, which rewards non-renewable resources with more coins.
TFC food and horses
Recruits eat cooked TFC food, ignore spoiled raw items and ride TFC horses, while villagers breed with TFC foods to produce bread.
Nine TFC professions
Nine professions for TerraFirmaCraft gameplay cover mining, lumber, farming, animal care, fishing and merchant trade.
Farming with climate
The farmer tills TFC soil, plants with climate in mind, replenishes nutrients and harvests most TFC crops.
Full moon zombie villagers
A full moon event spawns zombie villagers that players can cure into the first workers or recruits.
