📋 About This Mod
THIS MOD IS ONLY AVAILABLE FOR 1. 6
The first mod using this is now available! Check out Cloudberries As Forage (by me)!
To make a custom forage crop, make a seed item, then make a crop, both as normal.
Then, add the key "Kronosta. ForageCrops/Spawns" to the CustomFields of the crop, with the value being a space-separated list of object-type unqualified item ids. You'll still need a HarvestItemId entry; that will be the harvest if something goes wrong.
