World Generation - Guide
Overview
Foodables seamlessly integrates with Minecraft's world generation system, adding 7 fruit trees, 2 berry bush types, and underground salt ore deposits that spawn naturally across appropriate biomes. This comprehensive generation system provides sustainable food sources while maintaining vanilla-compatible world generation.
🌳 Fruit Tree Generation
Complete Tree Distribution Map
| Tree Type | Biomes | Spawn Rate | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🍎 Apple Trees | Snowy Plains, Snowy Taiga, Taiga | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Cold climate adaptation |
| 🍌 Banana Trees | Jungle, Sparse Jungle, Bamboo Jungle | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Tropical jungle native |
| 🍯 Mango Trees | Jungle, Sparse Jungle, Bamboo Jungle | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Tropical companion to bananas |
| 🍋 Lemon Trees | Forest, Flower Forest, Dark Forest | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Temperate forest variety |
| 🟢 Lime Trees | Forest, Flower Forest, Dark Forest | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Citrus forest companion |
| 🍊 Orange Trees | Forest, Flower Forest, Dark Forest | 1 in 3 chunks (33%) | Primary citrus variety |
| 🌶️ Peppercorn Trees | Plains, Sunflower Plains | 1 in 10 chunks (10%) | Rarer specialty spice tree |
Fruit Harvesting Mechanics
Leaf Block Interaction:
- Breaking by Hand/Tool: Chance for fruit drops (10-20% base chance)
- Shears/Silk Touch: Drops leaf blocks for replanting
- Fortune Enchantment: Increases fruit drop rates significantly
Fortune Enchantment Effects:
| Fortune Level | Fruit Drop Rate | Sapling Drop Rate |
|---|---|---|
| None | 10% | 5% |
| Fortune I | 11.5% | 6.25% |
| Fortune II | 16.5% | 8.33% |
| Fortune III | 20% | 10% |
Tips:
- Use Fortune III tools for maximum fruit yield
- Collect saplings to establish personal tree farms
🫐 Berry Bush Generation
Berry Bush Types & Distribution
| Berry Type | Biomes | Spawn Rate | Cluster Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🫐 Blueberry Bushes | Dark Forest, Birch Forest, Old Growth Birch Forest | 1 in 32 chunks (3.125%) | 7×3 area clusters |
| ⚫ Blackberry Bushes | Dark Forest, Old Growth Spruce Taiga | 1 in 32 chunks (3.125%) | 7×3 area clusters |
Berry Bush Mechanics
Harvesting System:
- Right-click mature bushes to harvest berries
- Regrowth: Bushes regrow berries over time naturally
- Bone Meal: Accelerates berry bush growth stages
⛏️ Salt Ore Generation
Underground Salt Deposits
Generation Specifications:
- Y-Level Range: 0-320 (entire underground range)
- Vein Size: Up to 9 blocks per vein
- Spawn Rate: 50 generation attempts per chunk
- Distribution: Uniform across all Y-levels
- Target Blocks: Replaces all stone-type blocks
Mining Information:
| Mining Method | Drops | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Normal Pickaxe | 2-4 salt per block | Standard ore drops |
| Fortune Pickaxe | Up to 6-8 salt per block | Significantly increased yield |
| Silk Touch | Salt ore block | For decorative/storage purposes |
Strategic Mining Locations:
- Strip Mining: Y-level 0-64 for consistent ore exposure
- Cave Systems: Natural cave exploration for exposed veins
- Mountain Biomes: Higher Y-level mining in elevated terrain
- Branch Mining: Efficient grid patterns for maximum ore discovery
Salt Usage Applications
- Food Preservation: Primary ingredient for meat salting
- Drying Rack Recipes: Essential for jerky production
- Seasoning: Craft ground salt for flavor enhancement
⚙️ Configuration & Player Control
World Generation Settings
Access configuration through Mod Menu → Foodables Config:
| Setting | Default | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Tree Generation | ✅ Enabled | Controls all fruit tree spawning |
| Berry Bush Generation | ✅ Enabled | Controls berry bush patch spawning |
| Ore Generation | ✅ Enabled | Controls salt ore deposit spawning |
Configuration Notes
- Chunk Effect: Changes only affect newly generated chunks
- World Reload: Settings require world restart to take effect
- Existing Chunks: Previously generated areas remain unchanged
- Selective Disable: Each generation type can be toggled independently
Modpack Considerations
Performance Optimization:
- Disable unused generation types in heavily modded packs
- Reduce world generation load by disabling specific features
- Balance resource availability with modpack progression
Custom Balance:
- Disable natural generation for custom progression systems
- Use datapack overrides for modified spawn rates
- Adjust generation for specific modpack themes or difficulty
