Realistic Plant Growth

New Villager Farming Restrictions

- Introduced a new villager section in Config.yml to control how farmer villagers interact with GrowthModified crops. - These settings offer more control over automated villager farming and ensure villager actions respect your growth modifier rules: - villager.require_hoe: When enabled, villagers will not receive crop drops. This effectively disables villager-based farming for GrowthModified plants. - villager.destroy_farmland: When enabled, farmland is converted into coarse dirt after villagers harvest GrowthModified crops. Players must re-till the soil to replant. - villager.disable_composter_interaction: When enabled, villagers will no longer fill composters with collected seeds or crops.

Configuration Changes

Config.yml:

- Added: - villager.require_hoe - villager.destroy_farmland - villager.disable_composter_interaction - Bumped config-version to 9

Bug Fixes

- Fixed an issue where DARK_OAK growth modifiers were incorrectly applied to OAK trees. - Fixed a config error caused by incorrect material names like POTATOE, which previously worked but aren't valid Minecraft materials.
