📋 About This Mod

!(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/09675228cf956c81fc4cdcbeb2b895fd7b6f4922_0.webp)

Better Than Wolves extends the game by adding new machines and simple mechanical components to combine into larger automatic contraptions. These new features are introduced step by step in the survival mode progression to ensure a smooth learning curve. The original mod idea was to add features which would in total take about the same amount of time as adding properly functional wolves to show that development resources could have been spent better.

# Installation It is recommended to use Prism Launcher to install this mod. All dependencies are available on Modrinth as well. It is important to use Java 17 to run the mod. A Babric instance is needed to install the mod which can be found (https://github.com/babric/prism-instance).

# General features !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/BYWGyRsH/images/84c51a6e85dcfcddb475e6aa005221d7e5da0a71_350.webp)

## Hemp farming Hemp is a 2 block tall crop which can be obtained from hemp seeds by breaking tall grass. Its products are essential for progressing in the mod.

## Mechanical power The main power system of the mod. It creates unique challenges in figuring out a compact layout to power all machines. A network consists of axles and gear boxes. Gear boxes only have one input but can be split into multiple outputs. A network only requires one generator.

## New crafting machines !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/BYWGyRsH/images/75f659ad2ccc7c5b8549f663ec83e48cb6725661_350.webp) Better Than Wolves comes with many new machines, each having unique automation challenges. Some require fire, rotational force, and/or other machines to work correctly. The first machines are simple and allow for an easy introduction into the mod with each machine becoming progressively more complex.

## New purpose for dogs Dogs occasionally produce dung when fed. Dung is important in the creation of tanned leather. One important thing to keep in mind is to not put dung into the same cauldron as food, otherwise the food will be turned into foul food.

# Changes from the original version

The original version 2. 94 had some unfinished features which have been taken care of in this version.

## Crucibles can use double stoked fire Double stoked fire does not have a use in the original version. If you want to boost the smelting rate, you can raise the crucible up by a block. This used to be a requirement but has been made optional again for more parity with the original version.

# How this project is related to the original version FlowerChild is the original creator of Better Than Wolves, including version 2. 94. A lot of the code has been adapted to Station API or has been replaced. Despite the heavy modifications, this mod still contains a lot of the original code and all original assets. The license is the same as the original mod's license. See the license for more information about distributing and modifying the mod.
